[bodytext] => Dark hollows abound in spite of pleas of passion and presumption. Firelight was never meant to be an end-all, but the heart cries out for torches. Maker-love is a circle like the sun or a strong shield or the round rim of the pit when you fall. But I would not worry. Fighter-love precludes it and you've played that part long enough to know it well. The stones call out - take heed, take hold and be on your way. You don't belong here. Once you regain the path, you'll be given moments of keen joy at the sight of horizons.

Almost....almost I feel the sense to flee, to give up...and yet, and yet you have something here, something that will not let me turn away, something worth fighting for...
Very impressed!

I can see that a kilt is now in order. So noted and I shall apply myself with haste.

Morning.

Well now.... I wish I had posted the comment that Phil left here! Yes... there is something here that quietly insists, something that nudges... some that... knows. I feel at once both ignorant and aware --- oddly, it reminds me of RL in that way.

Intrigued,

You know..I found the other two parts of this easier to comment on than this one, for some reason...

The second stanza is the one the calls to me the most in this part, I love those lines, I think because I can understand tham and relate in my own little way.

Thanks for showing us a little more of yourself, Andrew, even if you are only scratching the surface.

Much love to you,
Phil xxx

I'll make definition all my own, on what stones you refer to in the final stanza,
as I have done thus far through pts. 1 and 2;
that is to say, I can relate and apply this to much of my own trials and lessons..
