      the blue fills and shades to darken the unknown tremors of space. a richness that lingers beyond the clouds. hanging. floating on the life giving air. shining as the suns rays filter the beam of life through the soft flesh of the wispy clouds. to enter every cell and multiply. to enter each molecule and nutrate. to make life to the level that is unseen accept in the clear spectacles of the knowing. the filtered beam embraces all and comforts. warming. holding. feeding the tired soil that must continually search earth anew. regenerate. aerate. feed the soil and the soil will feed all. feed all with love and the love will overflow from the depths. a fountain of life. surrounded by the garden paradise. in the palm of a hand life lives. written on the blank slate of knowing. whether thought or acted or hoped. hold and embrace the world in the palm of a hand. the hand claw paw is to comfort and feed. a robin. will perch. a hawk will perch. a squirrel owl dolphin. all perch in the palm of the seas hand. the palm of earths hand. the clear crystal palm caressing the sky. the wind rustling within and around the palm.
