Chilled before the finger tips that drift forever shores
In waterfalls, to course the spine in rushed rain pours
Where last these thoughts take flight to seek the sky
And break away the heart-ached castings that indemnify

Electrically, converging in the channels and the waves
In rapids pulse the sleekest crests that each heart braves
When in condensed revision found the echo of the great
And pounding hard within the veins in sheer anticipate

In shiver, all the molecules and pieces rise to blend
And silver comes the climax of a want that will not end
Where after glow becomes the moon at midnight high
And glistening perfume to trace this staircase to the sky

First, thanks for commenting on my work,
naturally, I had to read something written by one with such discriminating taste.

Second, I'm awfully glad I did. Loved it!

A beautiful, mystical feel to this one, Kathleen.

This is the first I have had the pleasure of reading of yours but you can bet I will be back to read more.  This was outstanding to say the least.  Your rhyme was divine and the cadence superb and of course the images your spill out are a special treat to these eyes as I am a sucker for vivid imagery in a poem.  Awesome write.
