Response

I always hear your voice. Like living stones I sit and listen through the muffled sounds of water running down a stream. Others have you of the persuasion of hags. I do not play with hag deer. I prefer childlike meanderings through an endless forest of green sprinkled with spots of color from flowers and foliage. Ruined arches weathered by the sun and rain echo the patter of dancing deer feet while mother goddess silently watches. I listen for the sound of angels. Is it time yet? Will there be a gathering? The hum of the tree comforts me while the splash of the water intrigues me. I hear your voice as well as others. It is always my choice which I respond to.... just as it is yours deer.

Reading this, I feel overcome

Reading this, I feel overcome with an intimate and visceral sadness. Sunbeams on gravestones. The sadness of hoping to be soon reunited with your beloved. A feeling I have often felt in the forest, waiting to hear the one oh so familiar and longed for voice among the many.

Thank you for sharing this.

Now a return to joy. There

Now a return to joy. There are worse things than death...life unfulfilled... endless pain.... endless betrayals... but then you enter the forest as you walk little ways of joys pop up at you until you become overwhelmed and find yourself running madly about without a care in the world

age does that to

age does that to you....things left undone, unsaid, or no longer can be reached so you get it out and live again
