Earth of corse!

Leave this place!
Run from the cement,
electricity,
running water,
telephone wires,
and internet.

Turn away and go from here!
to where pillows tango in the sky,
and dark and light mingle
and tangle like lovers beneath
the straw,
in the pockets of giants
singing, and
swinging
swiftly, softly, gently
Look,
look at the soft greens of Earth
far below,
(the bellowing of the wind and thunder)
breath natural,
within the dark underbelly of
the night's sky,
studded with jewels.

Glow as brightly as
the eye's of giants,
walking amongst pillows in the sky.

Samia~
Lovely, lovely ~

Right now any 'tango' on those pillows
would squeeze out a little more rain ...
and I've had 24 hours of it right now~

Gonna save this one to traipse about in the dry spell~

Beautiful thoughts you've shared.

Nicely written, time to get away.

Throw your heart out in front of you
And run out to catch it.

Cpat hair - muchas gracias! I think I do good with imagery. My problem is hooking it into reality.

Interloper - I'm from Texas too, it seems like theres a lot of us here. I love to watch a dance, and I even enjoy dancing myself when I'm in my house! (no one to see me trip and fall then) Many thanks for reading.  

Marge - I wish you could send some of that rain up here. We've had no rain in July and it looks the same for August. As always, thank you for your thoughts and for reading my poem.  

Shadow - Good to meet you and thanks for the kind words. I'm glad you got to "get away" when you read this.
