The shade of a thought

old pages...

Setting sail

To drift over the world…

This world so frail

With emotions as consort…

 

The wind is watching

As we build empires in our mind…

In gluttony, reproaching

What others have designed…

 

In weightless solitude

We paint the world…

With colors of fortitude

And smiles in shades of gold

We walk this earth alone

The way we’ve painted it…lost in crowds

Until we stumble upon

Another master with his palette of clouds…

Gentle and powerful journey with your words dear Ana.

Ana: It is beautiful...especially the last line, thinking too who is guiding us? As the wind watches, interesting. You're just a talented writer.I certainly agree with the gluttony, over excess in so much of our lives, too many exspectations. Thanks - Dale
