Breaking bread's communion...

just a thought in a scribble

I dreamt a captive dream,

    of spaces 'tween the rain

where sinner's pain was lifted in

  deliverance of acceptance's intoxication

         &

 wine was merely

    'in vino veritas',

 sans holy water's baptism

     a world created within integrity

         of each and everyone's beliefs 

            blessed in compassion's kindness,

                simplicity of moment's 

                   in breaking bread's communion

I've said it countless times before love, and will say it every time you attempt to qualify something as a 'scribble'...you are incapable of scribbles...I'm not sure how many times I can reword these sentiments, but every time you pick up a pen, magic ensues...it's just in you, and it happens whether you are conscious of it or not...and you know it would take me days to write something this profound...I can write about myself in a night and produce something quasi-decent, but to compose these kinds of observations is quite possibly beyond my abilities...and don't roll your eyes till you stop to consider how many of these types of things you see from me ;)

I dreamt a captive dream,
of spaces 'tween the rain...you had me sighing from the start with those lines...yes, we may be dreamers, but we're not the only ones, we're just not all as amazing a poet as you are :) xo

OMG you have me choked up Steve, you've left me speechless and humbled my dearest friend. xo

You know I always speak from the heart Frieda...I don't do idle flattery :) I'm happy that my sentiments moved you as they did....xo

Wow Frieda you never disappoint. The first lines are the best to me. Dreaming a captive dream really sets the scene and snared me.

Grrrrr, you made me have to youtube the song after just the teasing instrumental--you clever thing.. cause then just had the lyrics playing in my head as I read this.. wheeeew... what an impact that had emotionally let me tell you, and it isn't just the wine talking right now... girl, you love giving me chills don't you... jeez!!!

I loved every word on this one... EVERY SINGLE ONE....

deliverance, integrity and acceptance...."imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try"---

a moving write, Frieda...if only we could baptize the world in integrity's holy water.

Wouldn't that be grand, imagine.....

Therein lies the rub, my friend. Someone will always be pushing their beliefs on someone else, even if their belief is unbelief. It is the nature of humans to Not mind their own business, and not want someone else' s**t in their backyards. We are an inherently selfish race, and often only look to the greater good if it suits us. Great write, btw.

Thanks so much KL, appreciate your thoughts...unfortunately you're all too right.

I hate it when I am right. I need to write about that.:)
