I dreamed
that someone
dreamed of me
but it was just ...
a dream

A Couple of Favorite Poems....
Ample Make This Bed
Ample make this bed.
Make this bed with awe;
In it wait till judgment break
Excellent and fair.
Be its mattress straight,
Be its pillow round;
Let no sunrise' yellow noise
Interrupt this ground.
- Emily Dickinson
Adrift! A little boat adrift!
Adrift! A little boat adrift!
And night is coming down!
Will no one guide a little boat
Unto the nearest town?
So Sailors say—on yesterday—
Just as the dusk was brown
One little boat gave up its strife
And gurgled down and down.
So angels say—on yesterday—
Just as the dawn was red
One little boat—o'erspent with gales—
Retrimmed its masts—redecked its sails—
And shot—exultant on!
- Emily Dickinson

God Only Knows
(Joe Henry)
Darkness settles on the ground
Leaves the day stumbling blind
Coming to a quiet close
And maybe just in time
We almost lost the heart to know
How to keep our best in mind
We almost lost the heart to know
How to keep our best in mind
Time has turned an angry face
Throws a dark eye back to sea
But What will pass for mercy now
We practice unforgivingly
As if might and will make right
Or either one could make us free
As if might and will make right
Or either one could make us free
Lovers laugh and cross this way
They're weaving out into the street
It seems we never were so young
Or it was never quite so sweet
But the world is always beautiful
When it's seen in full retreat
The worst of life looks beautiful
As it slips away in full retreat
Well God only knows that we can we do
No more or less than he'll allow
Well God only knows that we mean well
God knows that we just dont know how
But I'll try to be your light in love
And pray that is enough for now
But I'll try to be your light in love
And I'll pray that is enough for now
