Stretch.
Break free
(gently, gently)
From the myriad ties that bind.

Stretch
your Soul.
Find your own legs
with which to leap and run and play.

Stretch,
Spoke he,
Do not lie there
letting the Life that's yours pass by.

Before you is all that you'll need
to find your way.
Said she,
Peace.

"To a Faith-Torn Skeptic"

You would-be secular Buddha with no equipose,
You who pokes and prods, and, despite yourself,
Sighs at the beauty in the smallest Atom,
Swallowed by the harmony of a troubled mind.

What's to stop you from looking straight ahead,
From seeing only that which is stable, pertinent?
The clouds above, in their insubstantial wandering,
And the hidden glimmering voices of the bestarred heavens.

Proxie :

Because you said: "pearly - The first one came right after I read your post for Neruda...
maybe it is for you...
(cue Twilight Zone Music)."

I thought that was uncanny Very cool...
