In the space between moments

0 posted 2001-07-19 10:58 PM

A filigree of sunlight
Falling soft in celestial grace
Over rainsoaked green...

A blush of warmth
Drawing color to skin
Once frosted in apathy...

A swelling of heartbeat
Expanding in the moments
Of startled recognition...

A chalice of sky
Pouring in cerulean blue
Lands in your eyes...

And estrangement ends
As I drift forward
Over your lips and
Into your spirit...

The beast within
Falls into quiet flittering
Waiting for the next flare
Of a doubting soul.

*Krista Knutson*

As always this piece showcases your incredible imagery. I loved of "a chalice of sky." The beauty you put into everything you write always amazes me.

And estrangement ends
As fairylight in your eyes
Ignites a new magic
In warmth of heart

I hope you'll forgive my meager poetry. I love your work, dear

Wow, Krista, as always your poems are very good, and the imagery in this one was very nice, not overly done, but with a lot of depth nonetheless. And you found a word I didn't know (filigree). LOL. That doesn't happen very often... 0_o ::grins:: Good job!
