To feel the intent of a nurturing glance,
to bask in the sunlit moon,
when water transforms to the nectar of chance,
and time builds a palace from ruins.

  7. There aren't many nurturing glances in life these days. Well, there are in my life thank goodness. I live in fear of the nectar of chance. I am cowardly but I like that you write such wonderful words.

  14. WHEW! F I N A L L Y I made it here in time (before the next gold nugget).

    Daily I wonder--chances of who or what is waiting right around the corner--and what engaging story, or one needing help, or another piece of my own puzzled history will emerge...

    Shadow, you arrange words to tell complete stories.
    "...Time builds a palace from ruins." This happens so many times during my observations.
    Thank You

  15. Short and direct and makes sense to me. I have learned on my journey that I gravitate to being nurtured. Blessings dear one.
