   A great read, we should make friends with time then.

   hi tom,
   how are you? perhaps making friends with it, would be a good idea. how would one go about it?

   I really like the poem
   just one thing though
   Time
   my dear
   soes not pass you by
   it swaddles you
   it holds you to its bossom
   it protects you
   from experiencing everything in this life all at once
   it provides tho opportunity
   to live
   each
   moment

   ozy,
   time swaddles you but passes me by. figures. sarah

   Been awhile Sarah. Saving up for a Halloween spectacular?

   i know, darlin’
   i’m afraid i’m working on a new book and it’s taken a lot of my free time. i feel badly that i’ve neglected my little reading room so much, but i keep vowing to get back on it. i will and soon. thanks for caring.
   (((hugs)))

   To have the option to stop time and yet choose instead to let it pass by would truly be a marvelous gift, even in the dream world. ^_^

   The photo is incredibly stunning, by the way.

   Cheers.

   yes, it would be an incredible gift. i love the photo too. thanks for reading.

   Hey, I miss my poet friend. At least she’s doing something else creative, my poor time seems to flow through my hands like wind through my hair.

   I need some inspiration…. but more than that I need to make some time to catch up with myself.

   This morning I sat on my 1 hour train ride with a blank page infront of me. Managed to write a few lines in the last 5 minutes, nothing exciting. What a sad moment.

   Oh well, I know I am off balance. I have 3 days off this weekend and I need it.

   Hope all is well and congrats on your new book start. Would love to take a peek.

   S.

   i miss me too. i keep vowing to get down to business and be here more but the muse calls. i’d be happy to send you a peek - just email me.

   don’t disparage you few lines from this morning. sometimes, getting it down means more than what ends up on the page. i understand feeling off balance - it must be a change phase for you - i think i am going through one too. but you are so centered as a person, you will weather it well. of this i am sure.

   and i will try to be better about posting more and visiting. i just need to get more organized. love

    It wouldn’t be
    so scary
    to watch it
    pass me by

    Damn, is it ever scary! The Buddhists tell us that we can derive comfort from the knowledge that nothing lasts forever. Sadly, I’ve never quite been able to make that one work for me.

    -smith

    it’s funny because i don’t believe that nothing lasts forever. perhaps on a physical plane that’s true - but it seems the physical is such a small part of what we are really. but i would say that things do always change, though, don’t they?

    Hi Sarah,

    Took me time to come back, but you forgive me, will you?

    I guess accepting time as a constant in our lives will be the first step in making friends.

    We’d stick with time with the good times.

    We’d stick with time in the bad times.

    We’d finally part with time in no time.

    There’s always a goodbye, in even in the staunchest of friendships.

    Love the way you make me think.

    hi tom,
    i’m always glad to see you whenever you have time to drop by. i’m glad i make you think because that makes me think too.
    sarah
