One with you


*


The forget-me-nots held their breath
and bravely offered their smoothness
when we choose to stargaze that night.
We stretched out, fingers entwined,
hearts synchronized their dancing steps
souls melted into one glowing globe,
brains exchanged light speed impulses,
veins were rivers rushing to alien shores
where Universal tunes were performed.

We inhaled the fragrance of stillness
and exhaled remnants of built up tensions
imitating the sea’s eternal play of waves.
All earthly heaviness left our bodies.
The forget-me-nots lifted their heads
and pushed us closer towards the stars.
We hovered in a place of no attachment
immersed in a space of deep contemplation.
where filaments of light kept us out of chaos.

Our soul smiles erupted into the vast void
winged whispers roamed in new sun skies,
through shafts of radiance we ascended
higher and higher onto a level of pure being.
Thoughts tumbled from consciousness
sinking temporarily into channels of silence.
We held the quiet for long enough to perceive
the primordial cosmic breath of harmony.
Then we turned to each other and kissed.

The forget-me-nots had shared our bliss,
each of them put on a knowing smile
as they cheerfully waved good-bye.

Poems such as this has to have been lived to be written in such a personal and unique way. To merge the forget-me-nots' into the fabric of the verses gives it a lasting effect.

Thank you, dear Jerry, for your loving comment. Yes, it has been lived ... intensely so ... but the poetic rendering can go its own fantastic ways of course.

Love,

"We stretched out, fingers entwined,

This is romantic with a capital R.  I never miss your poetry - I read you with such an ease as your words just wash over me.  I love how you write - I think that your gentle spirit marks every word.

Did you know that Forget-Me-Nots are Alaska's state flower.  Just some trivia for you.

Love this and you.

Margherita - This brought back memories of long ago moments. Your words made me remember times almost forgotten. This was visual and beautifully crafted as only your poets pen can do thus making this reader 'one with you'. And that definitely puts a Margherita in my day. Thanks M. Namyh
