We walk in ever-jagged circles
around the world and Sun,
and around our dreams
and hopes and prayers,
and all the things we've done.
And once ago you said to me,

all things will their time come-
the fears and tears and sealing wax,
the stars, the Moon, the Sun.
The seasons change
the shadows fall
and many good men die,
the river flows
the cold wind blows
and harsh the blackbirds cry.
What words in sand you ever wrote
will someday wash away,
the greatest hearts and truest lives,
will sometimes go astray.


You said to me,

out by the sea
the greatest lighthouse stands,
and the sidewalk ends
and the long road bends,
before we meet again.
Between the crosses poppies grow
like markers of the times,
and share do we the memory
of bitter nightmare wines.
But never fear my darling dear
though far from you I'll roam,
for every step I take away,
another leads me home.

"Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
and we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
for the children, they mark, and the children, they know
the place where the sidewalk ends."


-Shel Silverstein


I wrote this for some people who will never know I wrote this for them. And I wrote this about some people who will never know I wrote it about them.

But they all know I love them.

It's gorgeous...simply perfection in every phrase...
