You Are The Poem     (inspired by all of your titles)

in the still of the night
wait by the window
sleeplessness
every night
slumbers silence
another reason
waiting
reaching
who knew
considering the odds
for love has come
someone to touch
I know
I knew….we know
lovemaking comes in many forms
allusions…illusions ?
in any event
I came to dance
unconditional love
FOREVER
a path, long and narrow
a place we know
my love
wouldn’t it
grace
love’s intent
you are worth the sum of all I own
still postcards
a love to last eternally
time’s gift
come here
never let go
give me to happiness
this feeling of love
my path
I will hear
the sound
in the mist
landscape of dreams
once in a lifetime
rain eyes
willing skies
inner thoughts revealed by rain
first storm
beautiful
with you
improbable magic
I live for the rain
rain sounds
stay
wind sounds
raining magic
surprise
photography
no title
painting
colors of life
moonlight rainbows
clear view
ebb and flow
by degrees
love flight
the rolling motion
of the leaves
color swirl
special moments
for you
touched
together is one
only you
if only
encaged in you
hard to describe
our garden of love
future seeds
of all of these
heart, breath, and soul
if all were silent
conversation
speechless
the space between speech
not a word
the ravens song
cry of wren
quiet wishes
I carry your heart
choosing life
with you my spirit soars
to die in a dream
in a trance
shadows
silhouette and more
I’m sending a letter to heaven
I thank God for you
much to be thankful for
to know your touch is to know the dew
you’re all I’ve yet to know
are we there yet?
mission completed
arrival


many, many thanks to all the poets here that paint with the beautiful vivid colors of words
poets named as titles appear in the poem….thank you again for your constant inspiration

Helen!
Cool. Of all of these I thought yours was the best.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Helen, How creative. You are simply
~too cool~!  I like this, and it does look like a lot of work.

By your remarks and kinda knowing you a 'tiny bit' through your poetry, I've no doubt this was a labor of love.

This is very, very special.
You never fail to amaze me.

And I also thank you for including me.

Hugs to you,
Pat

Oh this is just wonderful. It must have taken time to do, and I am honored as well to be included. It's simply splendid. The talents of so many, as one, in song. Just lovely.

Helen, this is really unique. I also think it must have took a lot of work, and love as well. Thanks so much for including me, too. As I've said before, I really feel small amongst all you giants of poetry. It's an honor for me to be included here. Again, Thanks, sweet friend, for sharing this with us.

This is really good. I know it must have taken hours to compile so many poems and poets. But then to be able to create a poem with them that flows so well.
Great job.
