True Colours Silent Voices

True Colours !!! Time being the greatest artist of all, – in its passing – sketching and painting ones essence, upon a canvas, the canvas of life, with the truest, purest of colours, colours that come through, colours that enlighten, colours that open one’s eye to the subconscious, - that all knowing third eye that the conscious mind is blinded to, - the eye that saw, - a long time ago – from the beginning, a way to move with insight. Some hang on, willing to stay, – with hope – partake of the fight. Unfortunately - in the end – both will climb aboard, take flight, searching the nooks and crannies, dreaming, hoping to see the light . --------------------------------------------------------------------- Silent Voices My voice remains silent, within life’s harmony, for a tune, it cannot carry, even with the cords that vibrate, that grate, that irritate, out of sync. For they – as I – are tone deaf, sing out of tune. B. J. “A ” 2 February 6th 2004

You may feel that your physical voice lives within silence, “ I don't speak a lot.. as at times or most of the times am scared to speak ”, “ often my silence ”, “ instead of speaking up, ” this I cannot confirm or deny, but your spiritual voice speaks out with such eloquent, such force, as ( WOMAN and NIGHT : WALTZ OF BEAUTY ( An autobiography ? ) / SUPERSTAR / A QUICKIE ( I see you like playing in the ocean ? ) ”, “ clearly indicate, and no one could possibly believe, that the above quotes, from your wall, speak any kind of truth about you Keep up your prolific, creative writing Olive Eloisa, and do take good care .

As an obviously well-educated young woman, I am flattered Olive, that you think my stuff is such a “ deep graceful write. ”. I wish I had your talent, your poetic expertise and technical knowledge .
