Colors of the Rainbows

by Douglas returning

Rated: 18+ · Book · Experience · #1378400

Some rainbows are bright, some gray, some in colors you've never seen.

** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **

The sun is always shining and there are always rainbows. If it's cloudy, the rainbow may be covered or in shades of gray. If the rain has just passed, the rainbow may be strong, clear, and brilliant. If the sky is crystal clear, the rainbow may appear in colors unexpected.

Whatever is going on for you, there's a rainbow out there somewhere. Look for it. And if you find it, let it brighten your day. Keep it in your heart to tide you over until you see the next one.

Gonna give this Johari Window thing a shot. If you think you know me or want to see what others think about me, follow the link then follow the directions.

Life is words in motion:
Flowing from mind, to hand, to page;
Sung from heart, to voice, to ear;
Life is words in motion.
~Douglas

The Human Touch
By Spencer Michael Free



‘Tis the human touch in this world that counts,

The touch of your hand and mine,

Which means far more to the fainting heart,

Than shelter and bread and wine;

For shelter is gone when the night is o’er,

And bread lasts only a day,

But the touch of the hand and the sound of the voice

Sing on in the soul always.

I like snippets. Vignettes as it were. Liked scene 1 but no clue what it means but that's what dreams are for. Meaning something. Or meaningless.

I can't remember dreams. And I often forget to jot down my daydreams. My Muse is seldom missing-in-action. I just wait for the next time.

Welcome back.

I started writing poems in May 1999... because I had to, started my journal December 2003... knowing I could stop whenever. Some days I write a little, some days a lot.

Quality? Nah. I do care, but just expressing myself is the goal.

WDC has changed. I suggest checking the Community Newsfeed and

Blogging is passe but I still blog... almost every day and Robert Waltz hasn't missed in 2 years! A feat I have no intention of matching.

Hey! You have any images of what graphic design stuff you've been working on? I would love to see some! That's what I've been working on with my schooling so any way to see more, and by someone that I've talked to a good deal (at least in the past) is awesome.

Keep a free account, basic if you can. So hard when folks just disappear, so thanks for the warning.

Transferring was wise... I need to make a back-up for everything... Now... before you go "small" you could delete everything except what you want to be kept in a free account. If you don't downsize I think only the oldest are kept.

Work and other obligations can so easily get in the way of writing.

peace, Kåre.

It's been a month. Busy writing?

I need to take advantage of the slow days like today, tomorrow and Monday to breath and do some serious writing or editing. I keep up with my blog and journal and sketches... sorta...

Daily writing is a good discipline.

Sorry, I missed this. People can 'read' me, so sometimes I don't dare show my face!

I write letters to someone I love and occasionally call. I email folks who I'm attracted to... carefully. I write poems I don't always share.

I live in a Land of Exile hoping someone will ask me to 'come home'. And I would... except it isn't home anymore.

I too hope to have a relationship with rockets going off. Someday...

Well, George the 3rd did give up his crown to Barack the 1st.

Funny that you should mention Queen Liz. I found a 10 pence in my change (1992) with her mug on it. It's the same size as a quarter.

The prez won't get much privacy. Every move will be commented on and criticized by someone.

At some point everything in Kansas became perfectly clear.

It was clear that I needed to get the hell out of Kansas.

Wish I could help ... you seem depressed ...

My mother remembers her grandfather and bon-bons. I still think of her stories every time I see one (rare these days). Her memory must be from around 1925.

Oh, I have no idea of an alternative ending, but the idea that Dooku could still have honor I can buy. In the real world, people aren't black/white or flat.
