Beyond an Early Door



From the interminable tide
of sleep
The world outside
Holds a morning
To make your toes curl
A wind swept sweet
Like millions of pixies
Kissing your skin
As they rush past

wow! how did u get that pic? how did u get the sky to look like that in the backgrond - its amazing!

ur words reminde me of something i have been trying to write for a while but ot finding the words ... i woke up and went out to play, looked into the distance and saw such an amazing sight - just the way the light was falling, like a bucket full of sunligh tipped down from the sky ... and in it a hundred butterflies ... will write it out someday :)

prerona - Just toolin' around in photoshop a bit. I look forward to reading that morning. Sounds like you already have a great start.

inkblot - Dreamland every morning? You jest!

transience - Thank me? No, thank you for the comment. Agree about the sky. I almost regret putting words down to detract from it.

Very lovely picture. And the words are like adding sugar to just-the-right-temperature coffee!

An otherwordly image; an enchanting piece. Together, they give me an exhilarating sensation of flight. ^_^

Cheers.
