Dichroic Reflections

dressed in organdy...

I'm supposed to be reading both Java for Dummies (in case the job interview
where they want me to know it actually comes through -- I've told them I don't,
but I want to at least have seen it) and the Private Pilot Manual (because
I'm *very* rusty and Rudder gave me some flying time for Christmas.) This explains
why I'm here writing this entry, instead.

For Mechaieh, here's the
Simon and Garfunkel song you can still have someone sing to you, even after
growing up enough not to want to be someone's only truth.

What a dream I had,

Dressed in organdy,

Clothed in crinolines,

Of smoky burgundy,

Softer than the rain.

I wandered empty streets down

Past the shop displays,

I heard cathedral bells

Tripping down the alleyways,

As I walked on.

And when you ran to me, your

Cheeks flushed with the night,

We walked on frosted fields

Of juniper and lamplight,

I held your hand....

And when I awoke

And felt you warm and near,

I kissed your honey hair

With my grateful tears.

Oh I love you girl,

Oh I love you.

Though for Mechaieh, that last verse should be "ebon hair".
