daydream
and infuse the soul --

of time,
and swim
with ocean's renewal.

ah the subsconscious at work...
i just love the image
truly dreamy and lucid
it's like you're in a place like paradise
and you don't ever want to leave

Thank You!!
Thank You for Your entry: songkran, a word-pressed into the soul
This piece tugged hard at Spirit and while I was reading which I did several times~ I kept seeing words: clam shell...lobster tail-
and believe it or not, Louisiana for some reason~
when I read Your words again~ I was shown images of the tsunami from years past and then Hurricane Katrina-
Now while inhaling Your verse~ kept getting this feeling of panic whether something happened at the time this was written or something reoccurring- almost like an attack but getting word:
controlled~
Seeing Baby Beluga whales as if there is a kinship- with their symbolism
Hopefully that makes sense
Powerful images You have brought forth
These words grabbed and pulled~
unlock the nourishments of time,
Magnificent Voice spoken~
Thank You for sharing Your Heart also Spirit!
Best wishes to You in the contest Sweet Soul
**Judging will be done shortly...
Many blessings too
and much love~ Desire~*~~*~

I was thinking of Hughes when he wrote "hold fast to dreams for if dreams die life is a broken-winged bird that can not fly"... This is beautiful and filled with deep meaning.
