Weightless


I am in orbit around you, i am suspended weightless over you just hovering. hanging over you in a delirious kiss. yesterday i heard your name in the street but when i turned around nobody was there just 5 birds and when their wings hit the air i heard your name again and just for a second i was one of them pounding out your name! a word of few syllables stuck in my head, you see i am and always will be the one who loved you with no limits.

Dylan Dawe

Wow...that is truly beautiful. What a find.

mountains fall away

Like that one

[Hes]

Like that one

Its a good one isn't it...I love seeing ravens tumbling in the air when I'm in the mountains.

[Hes]

the silence
in moonlight
of stones

Virginia Young

I like the above too. I was thinking tonight how there is an odd silence about trees in moonlight. They seem stiller somehow.

senses heightened
running by moonlight
alert in stillness

My son was lucky enough to see a Golden Eagle in the Lakes a couple of years ago

In the Company of Eagles


Mountains for my mansion
The forest for my pantry
The clouds for my carpet
The sky for my curtains
The sun for my candle
The wind for my chariot
In the company of eagles

Flying above fear
Floating above failures
Winging above worries
Gliding above gravity
Living above limits
Soaring to success
Come fly with me

Ok, think I will head for my bed. Lots to do tomorrow and a time trial. Goodnight all.

Glad I stayed long enough to read this! Very inspiring especially the second verse...living above limits...fantastic. I saw a Glolden Eagle in Scotland once and it was stunning, would love to see one in the lakes.

[Nathaniel Lee]

Chaplin Features 1921-1940.

The Kid on the corner calls my name,
But it's not me he wants to play his game,
So i trudge on dirty puddles blacken my socks,
Tried to avoid them next time i've only walked two blocks.

Ahead of me i see hundreds of people in a crush,
Like america long ago like some kind of gold rush,
Closer now i can see what's going on there,
Oh i see it's a new store opened today with a fanfare.

The cinema can't be to long now as the city lights come on,
I've really enjoyed walking and wonder where the time has gone,
Whilst walking past some one there mobile goes off and chimes,
It's definitely one thing we don't need in modern times.

I can see the cinema now its vast expanse of front,
And now i'm here going to have to hunt,
Ah there it is next to the travelator,
In screen 7 chaplins' The Great Dictator.

Wonderful experience running at night, calming and exhilarating.
