In the space between moments

0 posted 2000-02-24 10:59 PM


The softly flushed winds
Flow entwined with peace
Violets gently yawn
Peering quietly
Petals caressing the sun
Raindrops lightly mist
Coating in a jeweled haze
The fruit trees sway
Dancing to the mother's song
Echoes of sweet nothing
Kiss elfin ears
And fleeting wishes
Ride wing of the fae
Jade sweeps the horizon
Melded with wildflower splash
All thrives in harmony
When so blissfully touched
By the softly flushed winds.

ahhh... such great imagery you used Alwye. Your "softly flushed winds" reminds me of the soon coming spring. Along with all those Summer time romances we'll get to read about. Great job as always.

alwye: this is quite lovely... i particularly like "Echoes of sweet nothing/ Kiss elfin ears"... not sure why, just gives me that nice foresty, Pan-like feel... *grins* if that made any sense at all... anyway, i like it

And leave you like they left me here

How sweet, Alwye.  I love the imagery in this.  Made me think of a peaceful night of lovers just to be together...  Very lovely.

I saw your name...and I just HAD to take a look...

You are so very talented...*attempting to mask her envy by throwing out some well-worn compliments* It's always hard giving poetry in here the credit it is due without feeling like you are just repeating yourself over and over.... ...but I love your imagery...and imagination...

Wonderful poem...


 I love the time
and in between
the calm inside me
in the space
where I can breathe...

Sarah McLachlan
