I am sorry all, I know I haven't been much around. Found a new job and have to get up every day at 6 a.m. and return to my place around 9 p.m. I have been struggling against tiredness and the will to stay in bed the whole day I promise I will come back and reply to every single comment and note. I also have plenty of photos to submit, from Paris and Spain. And I miss you all.

I am also very sorry if it took me so long to finally post the first results from the In Cathedrals of Time Contest but it was due to the fact that i didn't have all the Contest Votes. It was not easy to pick up the favourites, we had 76 entries to this contest and reducing this number was a hard task for each and every one of us. Now, though, it is time to present you the first 34 Finalists!

5 - From AnominusMidge -> The Cathedral Of Time

<sub>"In the Cathedral of Time life stands still,
Or moves so fast it makes you ill,
From the glass dome shining above,
Falls the light like rays of love.

In the Cathedral of Life time falls short,
Breaking each rule you have been taught,
Listen hard for the voice of the dead,
Give them the thoughts inside your head.

In the Cathedral of Time dreams come true,
But forget the wish destiny gave you,
Let go of your sadness, tears and pain,
Hold onto the joy that has kept you sane.

In the Cathedral of Life blood runs cold,
All that has happened is forgotten and old,
Death takes the living and locks it in here,
Remaining upstanding living only on fear."</sub>

10 - From HiddenRelevance -> Time's Absence

_{"It was time.  My death had come to an end, and it was finally my turn to be reborn.  I stood at the massive marble door, barely registering the crowd gathered behind me.  It had been some time since one of us had been given this chance.  Quite some time, actually.  Most of the new arrivals here in Absence doubted that anyone could truly leave. Truth be told, sometimes I doubted it myself.  215 long years could do that to a spirit.  I wondered where or who I'd be sent to be.  I chanced one look over my shoulder.  The militants of the Cathedral were slowly making their way through the crowd.  If they reached me before I chose to enter, I'd do so in captivity.  Who knew how that would affect the new birthing.  Taking a deep breath, I pushed open the door and stepped inside.

13 - From SwordOfScotland -> The Dungeon of My Heart


14 - From RedDragonfly -> House out of Time

<sub>"In the house out of  time
I'm living a song someone is singing
in a city far away with cobblestoned winding streets
and open windows with old ladies looking down
from the pansied flowerboxes.

In the house out of  time
you can see a million mimes a minute,
or hear one word spoken that lasts a lifetime.

In the house out of  time
when my hair falls out I buy a hat
as tall as the sky and as blue.

And though the leaves fall I can see the spring flowerbuds waiting,
marching slowly towards me through the snow.

And as long as someone keeps singing
I will be here beside you forever."</sub>
