Locked Down

Lid on tight

No action in sight

Still the water's boiling

Glassy pond so still

Reflective and quiet

Still the water's teeming

Power in reserve

Strength quietly collecting

Still the water's turning

Turbines in motion

Energy is flowing

Dams face quiet still

Sleeper Car

Feeling her hand in mine, my heart filled with joy. Looking into her eyes I pulled her close and I whispered, "welcome home".  Traveling through time the way we have for so long, finding each other newly in each pass, re-igniting a love millenniums old never fails to amaze and delight me.  Depending on the learning, sometimes she recognizes me first and brings me home - the wonder and excitement of reconnecting with the love of our lives a key milestone in every pass. 

Each pass is only the same in that we choose our individual course and know that we will leverage those learning's in our combined course.

None of this matters as I look in her eyes and pull her to my lips, drinking from her lips a nectar I never can get enough of.  While we always choose different bodies to play in, her nectar never changes.

"Where are we going," she asks, her eyes wide and wondering. "We'll find out together," I answer, not knowing.  The desire to know so strong and the need to experience paramount. If we knew, the pass would be unneeded, the learning always found in the experience and not the plan.

She folds in to my arms, her strong beautiful body, supple and warm. At least we got that right this time, the fit of our bodies perfect and comfortable.

"I've got a sleeper coach," I whisper, "I want you now."  She smiles at my urgency, no fear, but a distant recognition starting to glimmer in her eyes.. "Are you always so sure of yourself," she asks. "Only with you," I answer.  Her hand tightens in mine as she smiles, "I feel like I've known you forever".  Duh, I think in the parlance of the time, laughing as I drift at light speed through the span of our lives together.  "I want to know you forever,"  I answer and taking her hand lead her to our sleeper car.......
