The After LifeBetween the life I had / and the death I owe / lies the valley of the shadow,

My Mary EllenLet us stand before the canvas with colored pencils , highlighting our past , portending the future with living color , beautiful blues for times on the water , brilliant reds for evening sunsets , orange for breathtaking Dawns , greens for many care free walks through city parks , brown for the many leaves of Fall , seeking respite , a place to call home ! Black for occasional storms , yellow for lightning on the horizon , lavender for beautiful Summer bouquets worn by June brides ! Silver for family traditions , tea for two and twenty year anniversaries ! White for the Dogwoods that bloom in Spring , gray for an endless love affair , two broken hearts introduced by pure chance , the day two dreamers collided that now pass through this world together ! Hand in hand ....

portent ...there is an ominous sense of portent / in the air / in the orange glow of the sun

Getting ahead of myself hereMoving too many steps at once finds me back where I started. So let’s take it easy. We have an eternity, don’t we? / I look for leads everywhere, a hint as to finding out where I am and where I want to go. Betting on who I might be. / Starting from the sea, my scaly body emerges. Walking upright I enter the city of lights. I broker laws and sense myself.
