For Sunday Whirl: If, Dreamed, Vision, Nestled, Heart, Years, Persuaded, Stay, Tribute, Period, Floor, Degrees, Space.

LOST IN SPACE


If she'd dreamed at all
That vision would have nestled
In her heart for years

Persuaded to stay
She paid tribute to her man
For a period

Life on the top floor
Was killing her by degrees
Now she's lost in space

  1. Very smoothly crafted Stan! Now she's lost! Hopefully she finds her way!

  2. I suppose we must give up the things on the floors below in order to stay on teh top.

  3. I can feel...life on the top floor was killing her by degrees. I wrote about "she" too. Nice poeming.

  5. "If she had dreamed at all...' seems such a tragedy... and then she ends up 'lost' This, while it made me sad, made me wonder..... and hunger for more of 'her' story!

  8. Oh dear! To me it all got too much for her and the top floor was an invitation to go flying to oblivion.

  9. Wonderful. Succinct and authentic. Reminds me of the woman in the film Jasmine Blue.

  11. If the bottom is crowded then the top can be very lonely!! A price one pays!!

  12. Obviously, she found a way to escape the confines of top-floor living. The question is, however: Is she better off lost in space?

  13. So off she flew.... A bit bleak. but good use of the wordle words. They slipped in there seamlessly.

  14. Thanks for your visit to my continuing story...I've not gotten to this weeks (123) list yet. Trying to catch up first.

    I like this. I think thought that it doesn't matter where you are if one is lost in the space of their mind. And sometimes that is a very tricky place to find our way out of!
