Delightful Disconnect

Lorna



I don't want 

To touch the ground

Or to be shackled

To things found

Where hearts can't fly

And souls do die

Bereft of air

 

Don't take me there

 

Just let me roam

The fields of time

The living feast

Of bells that chime

Concerts of birds

Dances of wind

All merry notes for us to sing

    It's harder than it sounds Hodge!

    • Lorna

      That's because I am delusional............

      • Poetic Dan

        Hahaha, all so true I'm glad to share this illusion with all of you!

      • Michael Edwards

        Sounds like bliss -

        • Lorna

          Yes - it takes a LOT of chamomile tea............morning, noon and night............. but I'm getting there. Not going to work any more helps greatly.........

          Lorna,

          Sing to your heartā€™s content!
          Let the music play!

          Like that Simon & Garfunkel song.

          Anytime I see that Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme album cover, it reminds me of roast pork and potatoes!
          That reminds me to put down the iPhone and start cooking!

            I was thinking that it IS Sunday and Laura MUST be cooking! Now I will forever think of pork roast and potatoes for Simon and Garfunkel..........

            Beautiful ... like a dream.
            You actually took my minds eye an a lovely daydream with this and it was pure pleasure.
            Re-read. This is so beautiful its really reached into me like no other piece ever has on MPS.
            This has to be my favourite of favourites.
            I'm going to show it to people, i hope you don't mind.

            Big thank you for a wonderful piece of your creative mind today.

            • Lorna

              I am so happy you like it Dusk...... may it not deflate on the sharing ... I'm honored that you want to.

            • orchidee

              You flying? You got wings?!

              • Lorna

                Sometimes I think I do...... but that is because I am becoming increasingly delusional.......... what a wonderful place to be!

              • Heartwriter

                This was such a calming beautiful read. Adored it.

              • Goldfinch60

                Beautiful write, those fields of time will always be there and waiting for us to dance with the wind all over them.

              • Poetic Dan

                I will sing thoses notes
                With the depth of my lungs
                Thank you for a wonderful writing
                With a well needed song
                For a Monday morning

                • Lorna

                  Good because I can't sing a note......... not even in the shower........ not even with delusions........ me and Orchi.........

                  • Poetic Dan

                    Hahaha, so you both say but I believe you're just hiding it away.
                    Letting others have the light, as you both don't need it anyway.

                  • sylviasearcher

                    I have images of kate bush doing ballet in the moors!

                    It's such a wild and wonderful image!
