The Following Moon

Time has a way of making memories sweeter. Sometimes though, memories are perfectly sweetened just as they are. One such memory came to mind tonight as I gazed at the moon from the swing in my backyard. As early as two, I remember quoting rhymes about the moon to my daughter while riding in the car at night. I would always tell her that the moon enjoyed our rhymes and giggling so much that it wanted to follow us home. To a two year old, seeing the moon clearly while pulling into our driveway was proof enough that the moon had followed us home. On those rare mornings when the moon was still visible despite the presence of the sun, I told her that the moon missed us and hoped by remaining in the sky, it could share in the rhymes and giggles we were sure to share with the sun during the daylight. ~YMD

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup

“Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind,
Possessing and caressing me.
Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
They call me on and on across the universe,
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box
They tumble blindly as they make their way
Across the universe
Sounds of laughter shades of love are
Ringing through my open ears inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a
Million suns, and calls me on and on
Across the universe” 
~ John Lennon 

an enchanted place

..○°°°○♡There is a garden in every childhood,
an enchanted place, 
we're colors are brighter,
the air softer, ..~○°°☆°°○~ 
and the morning more fragrant than ever.

I made my song a coat •*¨`*•✰

.•* ¨`*•♫.•´*.¸.•´♥
I made my song a coat
Covered with embroideries
Out of old mythologies
From heel to throat;
But the fools caught it,
Wore it in the world's eyes
As thought they wrought it,
Song, let them take it,
For there's more enterprise
In walking naked. ✰

...Yes to Dance Beneath the Diamond Sky

“Then take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind, 
Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves, 
The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach, 
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow. 

Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky 
with one hand waving free, 
Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, 
With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves, 
Let me forget about today until tomorrow.” 

♪♪♪♪Bob Dylan
