You became the painted colors
Softly pastel in faded blush of rose
And painted on my mind the times
When a soft touch
Encouraged me to be tender
And a sighed brush of fingers
Endangered self control

“I’ll never go, without the sun faded stars.”


Chill falls now
When sun leaves the sky and I
Am left in want of wrap
To cloak myself from shaking winds
That waft easy on drying leaves
With a rustle

Reminding me
All season pass and even green
Turns gold

Slow the clouds passing
And sit with me a while
Here on the shore
Where wave lapped rhythms seem to
Play some primordial beat
That wants dance
If not of hips
Of mind

I stretched new canvas today
And covered it in wash

White

The colors of snow

To drift again
In thoughts of you
And once again

Simply know

Come to think of it...  it's probably called "Fall" for a reason...  one which we both understand, I believe.  Hauntingly impactful, Ron.

Slow the clouds passing
And sit with me a while
Here on the shore
Where wave lapped rhythms seem to
Play some primordial beat
That wants dance
If not of hips
Of mind


~*~

Now bring your hand
from the stayed clouds
and rest it here
on my face,
tell me all you need
and tell me
of what I want...

and keep the quiet
of the heart,
here, on this snow
laden canvas

~*~

You do inspire, you do, you do...

If my lips would work, they would find more appropriate words other than WOW. Wow is what forms there, though.

First stanza -


You became the painted colors
Softly pastel in faded blush of rose
And painted on my mind the times
When a soft touch
Encouraged me to be tender
And a sighed brush of fingers
Endangered self control


could stand on its own

“I’ll never go, without the sun faded stars.”

a wistful quote left for for eyes to ponder.

The middle of this - a rest, while we change with the seasons.

Slow the clouds passing
And sit with me a while
Here on the shore
Where wave lapped rhythms seem to
Play some primordial beat
That wants dance
If not of hips
Of mind


soft and sensual at once. a gentle power.

I stretched new canvas today
And covered it in wash

White

The colors of snow

To drift again
In thoughts of you
And once again

Simply know


and once again - you transform the picture into something more pure, more innocent.
The last line? Killer.

A perfect read for the times, for the day and I selfishly took some for myself.

===============================


did you just know the moth needed to read this kind of poetry today?

Did you have the amazing clouds this weekend as the cool front came thru? I was sitting on a lake shore from noon till sunset...
Fall fell from heaven via the most awesome clouds yesterday.

"If you hear teardrops falling like rain on the rooftops ...
know what you're listening to ... is me missing you."

Ron~ I was going to grab my favorite lines...but geez

Karilea said you inspire...not only inpire but you are a movement in yourself...

Now I have a plan....

You teach every man, young, old, all of them...how you think and then the world will be complete (plus then my daughter will have a chance at finding a wonderful man...like you).

Go, do...teach...
