And Jesus wept, not in the face of what was to come, but rather in seeing the future. Jesus wept at the prices for high car insurance, the intellectual prominence of politicians, and impending consumerism on the world market. He wept because air conditioning would not come in his time, but would surely spit out hot air into the lives of others. He wept because peanut butter would not be invented for some time. Lastly, but foremost, he wept because people would take what he had given and reinterpret it into hundreds of sub-divisions of its meaning. He wept because the only thing we needed was love.

Mantle is a thing that I think of as a cape. Capes are awesome things worn by superheroes. Superman wears a cape..The Flash doesn’t and I like the flash more I think Superman is over rated. That is all.
Travis
beneath the mantle, the stockings hung – full and shamelessly bulging with sweets and small but intricate toys. The kids would love it.

She put the photo back on the mantle and shivered. A black wind shuddered the aching skeleton of the house, and groaned down through the chimney.

On our mantle there is a photo of all my housemates and I. I remember that day it was taken. us all in ball gowns so happy. Who could have known that friendships fracture and love distances itself from the familiar rooms we all live in. Now we are starting a new year. That picture will remain on our mantle and remember me of what we once had. But I will happy with or without you all…

it’s hard to take up the mantle of a fallen warrior, a friend, a teacher, but you’ve got to do it. you’re in the middle of a battle and the only thing you can do is pick up their sword and keep walking, keep trying to make it out alive.

On our mantle is our wedding photo, a metronome we’ve never used, some of Connery’s birthday cards, Kieran’s tball trophy, a bell from India, a mother/child figurine and Spiderman/Green goblin walkie-talkies. A lot has happened in 8 years.
Amy
Her hand gripped the mantle until her knuckles turned to bone, she could not believe her eyes. Why her, why now. And who would know. Know the secret that has been buried in her memory since her wedding day. Now she had only a few minutes to find a way to let the secret be known. The mantle coverings was a lid that had been locked for over 50 years.

Well a mantle is on a fireplace, it’s where you store pictures of your family and other goodies. It’s also where you hang stockings. Oh a mantle is also on a knight somehow I think. Interesting, oh the mantle is the part of the earth that is really hot really really hot, it’s below the crust and volcanoes come from it.

People wear a mantle of protection around themselves most of the time. It is good to dismantle our armor every once in a while. Take a chance. Let down the guard. Get honest with yourself. Be honest with another. It is the most freeing thing you can possibly do for yourself.
Paulie
It’s above a roaring fire. A fire I can’t make. There isn’t enough ventilation. The airflow mesn the coals won’t ignite. But I want the warmth of the real fire. A fire flickering. Analog. Joy.

The big rock we call earth has more to it than we think. We think we’re so hot, exploring another square inch of space? What about what’s right beneath our feet? Digging to China is one of those old gags in cartoons, but what if it were possible? This could mean great things for transportation and the gas crisis.

mantil is a fire place.santa gos thrue it.

Michael mcGurk
i see a mantle before me. it is blue and silver with a red trim. i believe this mantle is the mantle to heaven. this is what you see after you die. i once stuck my head in this mantle and i felt the rain. it was unlike any other rain i had ever felt. this was pristine, cool, and pure. it was the rain in the mantle of heaven. i was amazed at this wonder that i had never seen.
zep
a coat of many colors. a hood. I see a hood! how warm it is on my head. wonderful, really. really? yes, I think so.
Where is Josef?

we all dark hang upon that mountain
and see what life has wrought to our kind
love loss and resurrection none
we wear death upon us like a funeral shroud.

Carry yourself tall and light, it’s enough that you have that mantle on your shoulders.By the way, What?
Katie
The mantle was made of beautiful sliver fur – glimmering in the moonlight as she waltzed around the dance floor. All of a sudden, the sliver was drenched in red as she crumpled to the ground,shot.
martha
Everything’s so condescending.
Darren
the christamas mantle is usually really cluttered at my house. well i guess it should be the fireplace mantle or whatever but we don’t use that. we just put all the stuff that should go on a mantle on the table.

a porcelain figure sits on my mantlepiece.
what are you thinking, sweet doll?
your expression is pensive
as you stare at my ceiling.
do you see something up there?
your china-blue eyes never stray
from the right hand corner.
it must be something profound.
I have a look
oh. . .
there’s a leak.

the mantle of the bat. by batman. wait, is that the correct spelling? i mean, is that mantle as in, thing batman wears, or mantle as in mantle piece above a fireplace? i have no fucking clue. they’re probably the same. oh fuck. i;m an idiot.
mikey
I see the legend of my family and the meaning that it has to the world. I must make a difference. I must be remembered. The great mantle of my legend will someday be passed on to someone else who deserves the great praise that it signifies. Be that it may, the future will be passed down.
jon.rice
undress on top of the mantle..we both know the trouble we’ll be in and i won’t let the weight of it weigh me down unless im inside..unless your guilty concious decides its time for a break, so wrap around me and tell me that it feels like the first time you wanted to give in, and never give up

Mantle. The earth’s crust covers the mantle, but not as well as some people would like… it roils up every now and again, erupting in fire and smoke to the tune of Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring. I’m serious, that’s what volcanoes sound like.

what the hell iis a mantle I thought it was an animal or is it one them things u have on a fireplace.

My mantle holds memories. Of lives lost, lives being lived. I walk past many times a day yet don’t see them at all. They are right in front of my face yet so ordinary to my life. My mantle holds things to think about yet it is rarely given a thought. It is just there, waiting for attention.
Kristin Eades
On the mantle, above the fireplace, was her picture. It pained him to look at it. A deep, intense pain, brought about by the memories that he cherished so much in his mind. Memories of love, of friendship, of true human connection. And, now, it was all gone. As if it had vanished into thin air.
Evans Prater
The kids hung the stockings on the mantle in hopes that Santa would bring them something good for their Christmas morning surprises. Each one waited patiently as Santa and his elves worked hard on getting the toys out to all the children. He filled all the stockings hanging from the mantles and made the children excited and utterly overjoyed.
Robin
the mantle had stockings hanging from it, in anticipation of Santa’s visit. the kids had set out a plate of cookies and a cup of hot chocolate to give him a much needed break from his world-wide whirlwind night. they hoped he would enjoy the treats and leave a nice trinket in the stockings for them to play with in the morning.

He wore the mantle of shame painlessly. Life seemed too short to wear it long and his memories failed his ego. It was too long since he loved and today would change everything.

school.yes ı really like school.but ıt can be boring sometimes .my life is going to school.and i like my school friends too much.
budlima
there are so many thins buzzing around in my head right now. Mantle reminds me of a tea pot, I don’t know why. Anyways, it told me to right down anything that came to my mind so i guess this is what I’m doing. Go Mantle! it remind me of something rustic

On the mantlepiece there are photos. Parisian street signs. A collection of model Eiffel towers. Two Chinese urns. Birthday cards. Other trinkets. To the left is a ledge with childhood photos and above is a mirror, antique and gold. To either side of the mirror are inbuilt bookcases, completely filled and completely packed. A bookshelf ladder leans on the wall to the right and a chandelier hangs overhead.
