"What's New, Or Old Or Anything?..."

Well - Seems we ALL

survived -

even the latest end-of-the-world!

- that should count.

 

The economy still bites.

The gov't is still screwing the pooch.

Some of us have posted more

...some - less.

 

The weather remains "interesting".

 

Women are still lovely,

men just as handsome...

the sky remains above

the ground below -

the snow covers everything

in its equal white blanket

til even the tears ...don't show.

Fun reading the scratch lines in the soil,the threads in a tangle,the light edging a cloud,the sailing wing tips ignoring the menacing crow," til even the tears... don't show."

just like always, everything's changed, everything's the same...keeps on keeping on until we check out of the parade...even so, while the music plays, we get a chance to nod across the years and say 'good-day'

Winter has changed me
Or maybe I changed
In my winter
No one can tell
Or even see
The difference between
Sadness or smiles ..
In me.

As usual, I don't quite understand Me
But I think in time
I'll get over it ..

Hugs, Take Care Chris .. Jazz

Thanks Jazz

Life is a Circle
By Black Elk ~ Oglala Sioux ~1863-1950

Everything the power of the world does,
is done in a circle.

The sky is round
and I have heard that the earth
is round like a ball,
and so are all the stars.

The wind in its' greatest power whirls.
Birds make their nests in circles;
for their's is the same religion as ours.

The sun comes forth and
goes down again in a circle.
The moon does the same
and both are round.

Even the seasons form a great circle
in their changing
and always come back
to where they were.

The life of a man is a circle,
from childhood to childhood.
and so it is with everything
where power moves.

Black Elk died the year I was born.. I came here naked and screaming.. I expect I will leave the same way..
