Through kaleidoscope
I see you close
many colors
I have for you

we are broken pieces
when apart
we are stained glass
making love strands
holding tight
to all we are

with nothing missing
but the sun

until we smile
at the same time
and touch

And when night comes
we are moon glazed opals
iridescent in haze

Crazy in cloud rifts
and purple water want

sighing mind spins
and laughing
in shadow secrets
tinged in blue

until morn bursts open
and I need you that way

behind me warm
so close, your pulse
is my own

just tasting the shards
all that is left of me
is yours

Loved the changing colors and the way your words move.
Your poems are always so good and picturesque.
You are a brilliant poet in every sense of the word,
I only wish I could write like you do.

One thing is always constant when I read you--has been this way from the first read,
I always wish I could write like this...
BUT lately....I find myself wishing more so that I was INSPIRED LIKE THIS.
my goodness Poetess Regina...love suits your pen ... you wear it well my friend.
Kiss your muse dear...for he takes your poetry to sweeter level of *sigh*
mothy me

So it seems your saving grace was only saving face,
you thought he was wanting you...
but he was only wanting you to let him off the hook.

When we are so inspired, are muses grace our words.  Your muse most definately graces your words dear somy~  This was lovely

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.

Dear Regina, here you have created your own pot of gold with the many colours of your mood and feelings, you have gathered all the different lights and shone a beam of love filled emotion which we all can feel. You have yet again created a picture of enlightment which we will all try to find in our Kaleidoscopic of life and events.
You sound very happy and content, may you be forever.
Loved the write.

Sincerely Rick

Regina

Touching, tender sensuous look into light.  You turn feeling into words.
