Her Twisted Silky Threads Love is such folly voice, singing tangled bars that drain rhythm’s sweet tempestuous storm, like a heart song given across parched perception that changes true to need. Love gladly touches whispers in glade’s bend and bow, rising to the redwood’s strength, but such a height is dizzying and falling on tundra that protests its very loveliness seems more safe. Why is a heart so careful it careens, falling as it stands next to tattered need expecting Suresh from languid sand that holds no echo but gives into itself? She would gladly open, show her twisted silky threads to you of noble and sweet vibrant core, but listen, still the sound is silent and withered, has dwindled into stone in cold and hardened lack, to sit and gaze across the meadow-land of earth and light, for the song for want has ended, waiting. In the dew of little things, the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. (ee cummings) |

Martie - I could fairly hear a violin playing ... Mesmerizing .. truly lovely and melodic. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Another lovely poem. ~Astraea "Sometimes stars can only be seen in darkness." "Sorrow's crown of sorrow is remembering happier things." |

Each one of your poems seems more beautiful than the last - yet I cannot fairly compare them, my friend. 'to sit and gaze across the meadow-land of earth and light' Wow - a dream. K |

Thank you Marge-to be compared to a violin, what a compliment. Astraea and Tamera, thank you so much for reading and comenting. Kamla--Thank you, the "my friend" part I liked the best. In the dew of little things, the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. (ee cummings) |

Simply beautiful! ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |
