   Heart-spring Bent


All wrapped up
this sunshine is taking every tree
and fish
drop up like backwards rain on pond
their pout
a dimple dropped but from below
and crow
in lively walk on wire
dips attitude in sky attire

looking for the place
of meadow    cannot find
the fence bends round
not earth but heart-spring bent

There must be a picnic in the sand
or looking over pier a place
all lather and exploding
to hang my peace

The sweet pea holds the string
though nasturtiums crawl
around about in blink
leaving winter coved within forget
and making from the dying leaves a bed

eclipsed by winter cover of delight
inspired to build sustenance from fright

What a nice attitude...
it is a beautiful day out isn't it?
Your poem suits my mood to a tea.
I'm going to go walk the beach this
afternoon and take it all in.

Hugs Martie~

It is amazing the way your mind frolics among these deep and heartfelt thoughts.

Martie, if you keep this up, you will create your own language....

And it will be a language of tenderness and love, with no tenses in it -- past, present, future, all one -- pastpresentfuturebecoming perfect.

This one so, well, so internal -- as if instead of reading the words, we've been invited to see your thoughts with you as you think them.....

(smiles) Yay!!! Oh Martie, I always love how your words skip and jubilantly leap across the pages, I wish I could go to the beach right now but I live a thousand miles from it! (big hugggssssss) This is gorgeous, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
