If you shit the bed, it would be Baby Ruths

Rain never falls 

where you are,

it's only sunlight

in liquid form.

I have no idea

how you manage that,

and I'm not sure 

whether I should

fear for your soul,

or for mine.

Rain falls everywhere!!! It

Rain falls everywhere!!! It is a matter of appreciating the rain and knowing it is for the rain, that the sun can shine and make clouds for the rain so that the sun can shine and make clouds so..etc..."The soul would have no rainbows if the eyes had no tears"-Native American Saying-


...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

Indeed I did! sometimes it's hard to determine whether someone's under divine protection or has a deal with the Devil, and I haven't worked out which this is;-)

It's all Devine b, it's other

It's all Devine b, it's other worldly and we are the image of both else we could not be in existence. The evil was cast out of the divine source, we too can do this but we can not alas like the divine creator make it disappear, so that said I hope I gave you something to think about! Do do do do , do do do do [twilght zone]... ^.-
