FOREST EYES
30 July 2012

Deep, deep
into liquid forest eyes
she drank
as she danced
her sorrow
barefoot
in a simple
cream
silk dress
alone
alone
alone
sadly abandoned
and gloriously alone
embraced by the trees
who are
her spirit
her mind
her soul

The harmony of your words reminds me of the poem by Seconhanddreampoet...it takes a special talent to write this way and I love it...*BIG HUGS*

*may our dreams ever be magical*
