Lightly whispering in her mind
(The poetic Inner voice sings)
It’s soft caressing voice
can be heard lightly
appearing out of the darkness;
falling among the trees.

As she, the poet
bares her soul
With rhythm and melody
painting upon her
tarnished white canvas.
A paper moon illumination
settles in as darkness falls.

Voice and vision provoke thought
By the rhyme left in blotted-
ink traces.

Chimes sing tinkle, ting
in gently spoken response
to a light breeze.
Harmony soars
inside her mind
(In pure oblivion)

She sits mysteriously held
in her silent realm.
(Fervent strokes
calligraphy spoke)

Wooden deck creaks
with every rock
of an old chair
while body language;
words move in reaction
to the thoughts
flying from fevered hand

Nothing exists
but nature and a woman
transfixed in time.
Her lyrics beg to be sung.

Dusk becomes dawn
Silently she stretches in perfect
contentment; spent.
Her words have been sung.
In eloquent grace she has left
a trace by the pen.

Kim,

Your poem is full of haiku. That's a good thing, BTW.  

Here's a good example:

Chimes sing tinkle, ting
in gently spoken response
to a light breeze.

Great stuff...

Absolutely beautiful.  Vivid in it's description.  A picture unfolding gracefully as the reader is gently lead with your words.

"words move in reaction
to the thoughts
flying from fevered hand."

I too look forward to reading more of your work.
