Excuse me for gawking; this thread is like an endless evening fire. I consider it to be the Sphere's gift to me. Not only for the poetry shared but also for the exchanges and comments of those posting. So much of my life has been spent lazily, being attracted to only the shiniest objects and being sated by cliché... Blah.

But this thread is the key to the door I didn't know I was searching for.
These pages, all of them, are beautiful as meadows.
These posts, all of them, (though I haven't yet read them all) are the beauty within the beauty of those meadows.
And this contraption I'm typing on is a window wide open to that meadow that I, as much as I can find time to, climb through and bask in the preciousness of the offerings here.
Though some of my thoughts here are expressed in cliché (there's nothing inherently wrong with cliché mind you) this thread is strong medicine to combat that.

Had I found this place long ago, I would be a different person.


Disclaimer: I am prone to effusiveness and hyperbole, but I don’t think this time.
