 Rain
 


      Finally, it’s raining. I took a walk in the rain. Rain slicked pavement glistens beneath the yellow street lamps.
      Like a leaf that sprouts, from the pregnant new branch, all of my senses are awakened.
      I can hear what it is whispering, feel the gentle caresses. How cool and exhilarating!
      Night has fallen, but it isn’t dark. Not to me, not for me.

 Eye Exam
 

This is one cool cat, I think.  But his friends may not feel the same.

Morning


            - Sara Teasdale -


I went out on an April morning
All alone, for my heart was high,
I was a child of the shining meadow,
I was a sister of the sky.

There in the windy flood of morning
Longing lifted its weight from me,
Lost as a sob in the midst of cheering,
Swept as a sea-bird out to sea.

Here's another favorite of mine, Sara Teasdale.  I used to be able to recite many of her poems, word for word... aye, those were the days.

 A Single Girl's Bedtime Prayer
 


Let's see... he is definitely not a creep; he is very handsome in my eyes (however, did I mention that I am terribly nearsighted?); not too smart (doesn't know when to stop talking); strong enough (can open jars).  Oh, he knows when he is wrong (admits often enough); thinks before speak? (see above).  Pulls out my chair and opens doors only if my arms are broken... ; he will make love to my mind (but he has difficulty in locating where my mind is); make love until my body's... wha..what?  I don't think she means itchin' really, does she?  I don't know about sandwich, but he brings me everything I need... err, sometimes what I don't need.

Wait wait... there are lots of other things that aren't listed.  Oh well, I couldn't wait any longer... so I stopped praying, and he's what I got.

Anyway, he thinks I am the best thing that's ever happened to him.  That's pretty good, don't you think?

 Reality Within Us
 


    There is no reality
    except the one
    contained within us.
That is why so many people live such an unreal life.
They take the images outside them for reality and never allow the world within to assert itself.
- from Steppenwolf by Hermann Hesse -


Hermann Hesse was most influential author in my teen years, and he always will remain, in my heart, my very best favorite.
