you wander slowly through my mind
waking what was napping

and if a gossamer thread
could hold a dream
this one would be
the first spin

if the shell fragments flung
when the world egg cracked
could find themselves in fragile ivory
and form a star
it would be the second

if the quicksilver of your smile
could fall on the wayside
and I could find it for my pocket
it would be the third  

if I could stand in the shade of your breath
and feel the warm in and out
touch my hands
it would be the fourth

and if a reed
whistling green notes
could call you to my side
and I could  keep you
it would be the last

oh

it would be the last

Your words are so beautifully woven into a story, I love being enthralled by them. Blessings on you.

Excellent and filled with so much love. I remembered this because it impressed me so much also the first time around. It's a beautiful, most beautiful gift.

Love,

Your pen is golden and so very delicate.  
Each and every word spoke to me like a prayer,
with so much love and tender care.

Gorgeous poetry, lovely Lady~
