"For us, our house is not insentient matter—it has a heart, and a soul, and eyes to see us with; and approvals, and solicitudes, and deep sympathies; it is of us, and we are in its confidence, and live in its grace and in the peace of its benediction. We never come home from an absence that its face does not light up and speak out its eloquent welcome—and we can not enter it unmoved."
—Mark Twain, 1896

MANIpuLATing the meaning

A soft April night descended into Mornings’ May, and Doves cooed outside as light broke the silence.
The scent of heather, lavender and mint wafted across the barrier of out and in through the screen of my kitchen window,
and hovered between this continuum and that, with the expectation and quietness of what the full glory of summer would bring.

Rhododendrons are bursting and their clarity fogged.
 Do you look the way you write?
Or do you write the way you look?

Perception is the intensity of existence.
Profound significance within the pattern of any relationship.
And yet………..
 I move the words around to suit my fancy, and then I remember it is the month of May.

Dangle off a planet.
 Any one will do.
 Do you actually believe that this Earth is the only Earth?

Mornings’ May proves to be an interesting month.
Wouldn’t you say?
