Late Recap
Sep. 11th, 2003 03:01 pmSo, here's the rest of what happened on my big ole birthday.
I got home and called Grandpa Irving. He'd left a birthday message on the answering machine and asked that I please call him back. As usual, Louise answered the phone.....hateful bit of ragweed... I just cut her off at the get-go and asked to speak to Grandpa. He sounds so frail! He apologised for not being a good grandfather and never being around, then wished me a happy birthday. We had a really nice chat and I think he's a groovy old dude.
Then Daddy called. We had an interesting, if not strange, conversation and I can't remember a word of it now. Go figure. I do remember it was odd.
Stephanie called and we had a right festive laugh. She's supposed to be coming over on Friday.
So I watched the last X-Files episode on Sci-Fi and was getting all verklempt, when Llew appeared at the front door. He presented me with a birthday card with gift enclosed, gave me a tight hug and a sweet kiss. Later on, he gave me a birthday spanking. Thirty-six whacks can get a girl's attention....
The day ended in peaceful cuddles. It was the best birthday in about 10 years.

I Become the Moon
Sep. 11th, 2003 03:11 pmI remember yesterday, when I become the moon
When all the stars came out to play, we danced away the gloom
Circled 'round the ring of stones before they fell in ruin
I can hear our voices still, when I become the moon
High Diana ruled the wood, traces still remain
Shared the wisdom and the herb, shared the joy and pain
Echoes of life's passion play still haunt the bride and groom
But they'll be wed again someday, when I become the moon
Soldiers of the holy war, holy greed command
Claimed the Earth and all her shores, stole Diana's land
But in my heart there lingers still the dark of her perfume
I drink the earthy wine until I become the moon
All that's left is history, and Diana's blood and bone
Fragments of a mystery, her story is our own
But undercover of the stars her secret is exhumed
I bow before her beauty now, and I....become....the moon. ~~Eliza Gilkyson
