By Nightlife

"Last night I dreamt I was a sail boat Simple and young, Painted white and decorated in wood Stained by the ocean's marks. My sails high and low Like curtains swayed To the motion of the sky's whimsical blows And like wings drifted amidst all the blue. No captain, nor sailor aboard To lead my direction nor destination I alone with the silence of the clamorous sea Curious birds and creatures that followed me. And at night the stars glimmered and smiled And performed for me, While the rain and waves bathe me for the Next few days. Not knowing where I was destined Nor aware of how far I could go I still knew I would reach what for So long I hoped I would find And when the sun came nearer and clouds Painted the heavens, I knew I had lived a new horizon And was glad to know I still had not landed on earth. --Cristina Nardone" She passed away this year, 2009, in January 15th she was supposed to turn 26 She died in Africa, Mali in a tragic accident. You can find her in the internet she also came out in the news She was working with peace Corps and then got offered a job she accepted....
