Understanding

“Like a sculpture carved
from ink,” she whispers;
“my paper sculptor.”
“Words set in stone
chained with others
making a whole.”

“Ideas, feelings,
what might have been,
gifted an immortality.”
“Forever etched
upon my heart,
my soul...” she cries.

“Just a simple paper
formed of water
pressed upon wood.”
“You and yours
turn it into magic
captured is our humanity.”

She sighs, “It’s love
oh it’s love, my love!
Extraordinary!”
She is rewarded
with kiss, perhaps snuggle
she understands.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
yes she does understand!
Thank you, Wendy!

Bleeding: The wonderful gift of have your poetry understood by your beloved.
This is so beautiful! Ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

I echo everyone else's thoughts. That is such a good feeling inside when someone understands.

isn't it priceless when someone understyands
your work?  i mean many try, but few really
see what you have seen...almost as if there
are certain people who see and hear on the same bizarre frequency that we do???
