Scant the breeze,
your breath on my cheek
Hope whispered through
rustling trees across the
sides of mountains where
waters fall in rivers
meeting at my feet.
Irises and violets nod,
in agreement they all say:

“Go and find your soul
before it is too late…
remembering that the wind
may bend but will not break.
Follow the voice that calls you
from future or from past
Walk through storms and
fly through sun
until you meet at last”


Darkness fell on riverbanks
the moon my torch, to see
the face of God inside the stars,
tracing my footsteps
before they were made.
And you, there at the end
of a journey unstarted…
play me home with a flute
made of bone from your rib
A song heard ‘round the earth
through time, through space
until our hands be joined.
Your voice, the laughter
of every running brook
arises like mist over meadows
and softly says
Celebrate
We are here
We are love
We are one

This is really quite beautiful!
I love the imagery, and the message, a beckoning of love. YES!

Very nice ^_^. I always enjoy it when I can convey more of a feeling then an understanding from poetry, and this has definitely acheived that! Vibrant!

There's peace in the poetry today.

This spoke hushes deep in my mind, and I walked with you for a bit this morning.

Thank you.

I raise my coffee cup to you.
