Still, like air, I rise. Posted by: Juliana Williams. June 10, 2010. Just between you and me. Written 14 May 2010. Ice blue on a backdrop of weathered tan stops me in my tracks. Like a dirty window, the lightness of your eyes masks the depths I know are back there. No chocolate gaze, rich and inviting. No exotic jade, full of mystery. Just ice, holding me at a distance.

Still, like air, I rise. Posted by: Juliana Williams. March 19, 2010. Written 19 March 2010. Cascadia, Sawtooth, Wasatch. Lift more than their rocky roots skyward. Is it any wonder their peaks inspire. The many aspirations of ordinary folk? For conquest, that heady thrill of victory. For glory, to revel in such majesty. For adventure, teeming with hidden havens. For comfort, an earthly compass more constant than that of the heavens. Appalachia, Adirondack, Wallowa. Command and nurture humility. Juliana W...

The Great Ones | bemusing musings
https://julianamargaret.wordpress.com/2010/02/11/the-great-ones
Still, like air, I rise. Posted by: Juliana Williams. February 11, 2010. The Great Work is not to be done in the halls of Congress. Nor on any battlefield. It does not come with Power or Influence.
