  I walked to my favorite spot and gazed shiveringly at the fog-enveloped mountains and trees -- those ghostly specters -- and perceived my childhood home beneath the actual lay of the land. Wishing there were someone with whom to share this natural beauty of intermingled present and past, up saunters a dear neighbor. A kindred spirit. He tuned in to my words; he understood.

  This is the day-to-day fare from which dreams of the subconscious arise.

  Creation.

  CoCo, the view sounds dreamy and ethereal. Sometimes nature's beauty is so overwhelming that words fail. I'm glad you had a friend to share it with.

  I also have a favorite spot, close to home, but, when I'm there I'm miles away.

  *Good morning, CoCo and Nancy!

  Allow me my dreams

  Allow me my fields of gold.

  My innermost thoughts without having to be told.

  Allow me my life which by me was not beckoned.

  Each year, every day, every hour, every second....Allow me.

  Icarus is out there . . .

  When I'm there I'm miles away . . .

  Allow me my fields of gold . . .

  With gratitude,

  I have become old but sensible,
  too busy for foolish dreams,
  too distracted to smell a rose.

  An abundance of occupation
  weighs me down, demanding
  I should keep my nose to the
  
  Grindstone and shoulder to
  the wheel. Ah, perhaps then
  I will please my taskmasters,

  They who promise cake but
  fail to offer bread. This life, so
  short, is probably all there is.

  For CoCo

  In my creaky old age,

  I shall savour the smell

  Of a rose, or toast.

  I shall wear purple,

  and perhaps a ribbon

  In my long, grey hair.

  No longer shall i care,

  for this life, is all there is.

  And it is mine.

  Oh CoCo!

  Vintage and wise,
  He opened his eyes.
  Asked with a cry;
  Was it all lies?
  Yes, he surmised.
  Breathe;
  Heavy sigh.

  Clarence opened his eyes that morning an ordinary morning a tuesday I thnk. Another day of going to work eating his tuna fish sandwich wishing for a change hoping for a rescue from his life. It all changed that day I think it was about 11:30 in the morning when the earth realized it wasn't alone. Everybody's life changed that day whether they wanted it to or not and clarence well he smiled and threw out his tuna fish sandwich.
