The Lord replied, my precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you. "There is no life higher than the grasstops Or the hearts of sheep, and the wind Pours by like destiny, bending Everything in one direction." Sylvia Plath, Crossing the Water, Wuthering Heights. Nominate a poem for the InterBoard Poetry Competition by taking into careful consideration those poems you feel would best represent Mosaic Musings. For details, click into the IBPC nomination forum. Did that poem just captivate you? Nominate it for the Faery award today! If perfection of form allured your muse, propose the Crown Jewels award. For more information, click here!

I'm Left
The sound of music says that it is time to say goodbye. I will survive; my way is to the great pretender be and climb into the light until high noon and play Strawberry Fields Forever, though I hear the music of the night and feel the sound of silence. Why'd Suzanne return to send 'er shatt'ring earth song, leaving me aground? There's no bridge over troubled waters now because she blew it up before she left. She didn't even leave me with a plow to scratch my fallow ground. I am bereft of strength, but I will live another day; you see, we are the champions of display. Song titles used, in order: The Sound of Music Time to say Goodbye I Will Survive My Way The Great Pretender High Noon Strawberry Fields Forever The Music of the Night The Sound of Silence Suzanne Return to Sender Earth Song Bridge Over Troubled Waters We are the Champions ······· ·······Slow down; things will go faster!
