within and without

within and without

i stood in the doorway

facing outward

of my shed

where i concocted life

there was sunshine

and wind

i stepped out

and the light of possibilities

embraced me

from all directions

for me

it was a new day

yes the shed now appeared dark

but i had light

for i made my own

within the walls

where limitations

and boundaries prevailed

i manufactured my dreams

and now i step out

to embrace them

live them

be them

ahem

brother Wind snatched

my imaginings

and took them

to the “Lands of  Fruition”

and i smile

the smile of a child

that no longer is faced

with limitations

for the world of wonder

is before me

behind me

to my side

all about me

within

and without
