“Live that you may live”
“Live to live”
“Live that you may live”
“Live to live”
Funeral pyre to a winged catalyst
Mating’s rebirth by ritual aspects
Eclipse once viewed as an omen
Transforms into balanced union
Sacred flames protecting emergence
Couple’s future in bright adornment
“Seeing the constellation’s looming splendor makes me happy.”
“Suddenly, I found myself ice-skating on a river with a thickened surface they had prepared for me, and I was the actress they were filming.
Why, and by what characteristics had I qualified?
But I didn’t mind – in fact, it was quite pleasant to have a synergy of interest with creative people coordinating day lighting, sharing cues and prompts, and just playing with the feel of water flowing over ice as my skates slid and glided.
I was mesmerized by the feel and flow of the river’s curves shloopimg ’round, the brisk air against my face as I passed through the breeze, and the varying shapes, colors, and shadows morphing by in the landscape.
My legs felt weak, but if I kept the strokes short, slow, and directly under me with only slight leaning while tilting, I made good progress – and had reason to believe that I might over time get stronger at this.
The experience was quite uplifting, refreshing, and liberating!

(This mornimg’s dream)
“To a cat, money nary crosses the mind.”
Motor scooter skate board with handles
Coasting by at speed, right thigh exposed
A young woman in evening summer dress
Golden-yellow fabric undulating behind her
It isn’t confidence but
Learned experience
That allows wisdom
To hone more true
As two become as one
Love’s blessings begin
That’s not to say
Life will be easy
In fact, sometimes
It gets even harder
To the point where the pair
Might doubt bond’s sanctity
I don’t know what to advise
Except stay on the same side
And you will come through any
Challenges with love beside you
“Could we rebalance inharmonics?”
Gears designed
Define purpose
By rewinding
Time ending
Linear effigy
Dismantles
Freeing Man
And Woman
Flexing &
Expanfing
Understanding
And Growing
Wisterian moon play…zoom.
It seems important
To find compatibility
Rather than to think
To change someone
Revealed over time
Desire’s fulfillment
Becomes defined by
A life’s accumulated
Gaps in unmet need’s
Missing puzzle pieces
Being found by exchange
In supportive partnership
Again bestowing upon us
Eden’s blessing as we kiss
A young father slow-trot bouncing his 5-6 year-old daughter on his shoulders in play fun.
(Awww – but cringing, “Ouch!”)

Baby I’m freee
Gotta little high step
Slidin’ on the low step
To beee
You’ve been on the up front
Now the past can get dumped
With meee
Commin’ round the bend again
Balance night and day and then
We’ll seee
What the future has in store
I can’t wait to find out more

To be cont…jaunty fun.
