Ashes

In poem

Ashes to ashes.
Dust to dust.
Before to after.
Morning to dusk.

Not yet to no more.
One rainbow end,
To the other,
Both landing in dirt.

Working towards beauty,
Only between.
Never reaching
The sun.

Which lasts forever,
Penetrating all,
Lighting all,
Making all
Beautiful.

Ashes to ashes.
Dust to dust.

It is simply beautiful. I love this a lot. It might be one of my favourite. Although I'm not much of a fan of poetry, I have to say that this is incredible. It's amazing. Keep it up! I love all of your works, and they are all excellent.

I don't know, maybe but probably not. Thanks!

What I meant was, you can try, but it seems like it would be hard to. I'm quite flattered you'd want to.



Daddy Long Legs are more closely related to crabs than spiders and somehow the idea of crablike creatures with spider legs that have escaped the entrappings of the primordial sea and now crawl over land and can walk up and down walls and ceilings creeps me more than I can adequately describe.
