---Eternal spring happens when you've been in winter for so long.---
After watching the fireplace ever so slowly sink to soft orange embers.
After drinking enough hot tea to start thinking the mug is a part of your left hand.
After gazing outside the frosted windows praying for an afternoon of sunshine. Knowing that all that you once had will never be yours again.
Knowing that you blamed someone for everything, but you knew it was your fault too. Knowing that there is hope for happier times and yet you just can't see it.
Begging for cigarette kisses just one more time.
Begging for the morning when you won't wake up with dread.
Begging for the shoots of determined green grass.
--The Midwest and all it's harsh extremeties subside for a night--
Prairie fires line dance through the flint hills on a clear April evening.
A few short weeks later bluestem wild grass colors the rolling hills
while lively newborn calfs prance around their plump mothers.
Bradford pear trees show off the first fragrant flowers
and it fills the entire country side with a buttery fresh scent.
Summer will come soon enough and coax the buds open.
It will draw the flora and fauna to the oppresive sunshine.
Nights like these are few and far between
they are gems found amidst the raw cold and burning heat.
--I'm still in love with who I want you to be--

pimpdaddywytemullet on April 9, 2007Know that you are not only a student of the words you use but also the master of their melding. The ablility that you show in making sense of the turned upside down world that you live in, shows that not only do you understand what is going on but you have a voice and know how to use it for the good of all who should be lucky ehough to know you
