What Saul saw on the road to Damascus

Deep sadness Like still water Moves slowly Uncovered secrets glisten as they surface Deserving the respect afforded to Ghosts of the recently departed There are those who scoff At mystical movement Creaking floors Wailing winds or Epiphanies seen only with A sideways glance We would be wiser To heed the whispers of the wood There is so much to learn From any admitted ignorance I once believed in good men And longed for a loverly completion The sorrows of the aged Are not only the death of friends The decline of familial fruits The tears that flow from clouded eyes Result not from glaucoma scales But from a final seeing that Even in the sweetest embrace When night comes We all live We all die Alone dg 9-23-13 Sent from my iPad

Wikipedia wisdom

Survival mode  is a  video game  mode in which the player must survive the game for as long as possible, while the game sends waves of challenges to the player that become more difficult with each subsequent wave. [1]   Another variant of the mode requires that the player reach a certain point before losing the game. [2]   The mode is particularly common among  tower defense  games, where the player must improve the defenses of a specific location in order to repel enemy forces for as long as possible. [3] Yeah, I get that I guess what surprised me Was that it was referring to a video game dg 9-21-13 Sent from my iPad

Simplified Instructions to the jaded and the weary

So many broken things They present themselves Unexpectedly At times inconvenient To commerce Or polite conversation Things cracked accidentally Can many times Heal themselves By the magic of coffee or Flavored gum I have seen miracles performed with less But some days bring Shards of shattered existences Detritus deposited by the devious Or the despondent Both require special dispensations And not from one with funny hats Or false hopes Every moment brings immeasurable opportunity See Feel Love Do dg 9-14-13 Sent from my iPad

It will grind you

The broken arms of progress Make more pain than promise Those rough edges of hope are Sometimes burnished While other days brutally broken are Whole limbs of wonder Innocence is the luxury of the young Grayer eyes know the darkness The human heart conceives And yet Bluebells bloom irregardless Hummingbirds hover And joyfully suck Whatever sweetness One flower offers dg 9-11-13 Sent from my iPad
