Granted that we shall die. The question then, How shall we live.

Fireflies in the Garden

Here come real stars to fill the upper skies,
And here on earth come emulating flies,
That though they never equal stars in size,
(And they were never really stars at heart)
Achieve at times a very star-like start.
Only, of course, they can't sustain the part.

We dance round in a ring and suppose,
But the Secret sits in the middle and knows.

Have I told ya? You can really get it on.

I'm just sitting down thinking about nothing,
Looking at the thin air,
Breathing up the oxygen.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But in practice, there is.

You may be seeing a Robert Frost theme. He's really one of my favorites. I don't like all of what he writes, but I really love the ones I do like. Very simple words but with a beautiful cadence. He is a master of cadence.

"And I took the one less traveled by"

It sings and almost skips.

Now you are just scaring me (again)
I don't really like all he writes either, just no reason, just didn't get that "Ah ha"... so I have steered clear of him somehow and the some of the ones you have posted I have never known and have me going *ah ha* as I skip down the other road.

You are the real deal, Kansas flowerforyou

ok enough of that deep stuff



What do you get when you cross a philosopher with a Mafia hitman? Someone who will make you an offer you can't understand.

Many divorces are not really the result of irreparable injury but involve, instead, a desire on the part of the man or woman to shatter the setup, start out from scratch alone, and make life work for them all over again. They want the risk of disaster, want to touch bottom, see where bottom is, and, coming up, to breathe the air with relief and relish again.
