where creative minds can interact
nov 21, 2009
A cabin anywhere
where the north winds blow
in the middle of the woods
the furious snow
makes not a sound
its there i must go
smoke from the chimney
unfurling as tho
it could reach the heavens and
continue to go
till there is no tomorrow
nor a day left to know
saturated in silence
its there i must go
my mind is racing
the seasons pass slow
for at least a century
near the river flow
where the north winds blow
in the middle of the woods
the furious snow
makes not a sound
its there i must go
smoke from the chimney
unfurling as tho
it could reach the heavens and
continue to go
till there is no tomorrow
nor a day left to know
saturated in silence
its there i must go
my mind is racing
the seasons pass slow
for at least a century
near the river flow

Well, I live in Pennsylvania, but I think I was imagining Alaska.....I've always had a desire to move there and live alone for a few years. Mostly, I think about doing that when I am very stressed out. Something about being holed up in a cabin, with a fireplace blazing, and nothing but books, and my own thoughts surrounding me........I've always wanted to go to the Iditorod......so I don't know, maybe someday.

i know! so many great posts! i love rick's post about who he wants to spend thanksgiving with! i love his descriptions of some of the members of his family. why is it that we love and remember the "black sheep" the best? because of their flaws and vulnerability? becuase they needed us to love them when others wouldn't or couldn't?
