The Rose

Atop The Table


'an empty verse'
and empty hands
~understand~
The glass in hand
can drown out ten- 
thousand and ten;
Hearts, 
~emptiness~

(Oh, Holy Nights) 
on bend-ed knee
enlightened to see,
Ten Drops from the Glass

I ponder great  love
and then I let it go
(Boomerang)
 Hands,

Masters Hand

Inspired by a reply to comment: 3/6/2012
~ "Slowly Ascending The Steps Unto Once Upon A Times Familar Front Door~ 
Seems As Though But Yesterday When It's Newness Held Such Vibrancy, Colours & Laughter~ 
Love Filled The Hallways Leading Into Many Different Rooms; Some Were Hidden~ A Vacancy Sign Now Posted Upon The Curtainless Window; Inside My Heart~
 Spring Melting These The Last Winters Remnants Of Snow Left Amid The Blizzard~ Winds
Whispering Through The Trees; Flowers Bending In This Their Wake~ With A Single Rose Sitting Atop An Empty Table Past The Glass, Aside A Note~ Time, Beckoning
From The Street; Leaving A Bottle Of Champagne At The Threshold~ Wrapped
With A Red Bow And Turning To Make My Way; Beyound The Rainbows." Love John!:)

Andrea Dietrich October 4, 2013 at 5:39 PM Well, I got it then!!! Of course there is a vase there too. I love how you made that shape.

Andrea Dietrich October 3, 2013 at 9:41 PM Cindy, I see love, John at the end of this one. What was this all about? I sure liked the representation of the rose you made at the top. and interestingly, the bottom part could be a small table! Cindy Lu October 4, 2013 at 2:18 AM It's a rose, in a vase, on a table.. and on my part I was reading parables from the Bible atop the table. John commented me long ago, his part speaks for itself...

The Situation October 2, 2013 at 10:41 PM Don't confuse my patriotism with princes we haven't paid. We have princes we've paid yours and mine. In ancestors. God will make things right without casinos one day. Just wait. Cindy Lu October 4, 2013 at 2:21 AM There is more than courage wuth my patriotism. There is always a bit of sadness that goes along with it with me.. you can call me a girl if you want ta but seriously, isn't there ?? The Situation October 2, 2013 at 10:44 PM Your sadly made me reach out to you.
