The Master Poet He mentally sifts sheer sounds Like silk between one’s ears, Or sprays an ocean’s soothing rush, Relinquishing one’s mind to let loose Of day Then he twists, a turn, to Paint for me A lake’s limpid light, Blending blues into greens, Spotting browns and a white feather And I am there, Relaxed, refreshed. But there is more. He squeaks open a door, Allowing shadows to traipse again, Giggling and blushing, Then whisks whispers with a broom, As they stalk my senses, talking, Walking… Then the window Is raised, I am forced to see the light As a breeze brushes curling tendrils Of sense, My lungs Loose their capacity to fill My throat becomes too dry, my eyes Burn And I pray, a god-almighty please, please, Let him do it Again.

Hello Karilea In words of John Denver's "Annie's Song" - "You fill up my senses, like a night in the forest." I have felt this so many times when I read the words of many a poet and I keep coming back for more. I get so much from so many, merely through reading words. I know for a fact that so many people will be able to relate to your beautiful words. Take care.......Sue I am in motion I am blue Love is an ocean I'm anchored in you - Shawn Mullins [This message has been edited by Suetang (09-24-2003 05:56 PM).] |

Well, Karilea, I have in mind quite a few poets I've read.....and this is the feeling exactly. I know the ones "who know who" they are will certainly appreciate this. Thanks for sharing it with the rest of us.  Hugs to you, SunshineyOne Ethel |

 (smiles) Truly every honest poet is a master poet in my mind, for only the honest can bring such extraordinary visions to ones mind and heart! If that Polaroid magic is lacking, you know the truth there, God Bless You, this is dazzling, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karilea, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

This is such a good write, truly! Yes indeed! May they continue to supply us with the fruits of their labors. (I'm just greedy that way...hehe) Oh, and Karilea? Someone made a request for a Sunshine/wranx post. It'd be a pleasure, just let me know. (And if you have a few lines layin' around clutterin' up the place, send a few this way.I seem to be in short supply). |

He squeaked open this rustic door circa 1950, or somewhere near that vintage time when clover grew upon the meadow beneath the house, as a swing swung lazily upon a country porch....and when it opened, he smiled and saw true beauty. Beautifully written KJ.....this is superb. |

This whole community feels like this to me. Each poet is different; each a star in their own write. I like them all some for color, some for taste of emotion, some because they are so bright, but all because each one helps me to see things that without them I wouldn't see. I don't know who you wrote about, but for me you said what is great about this whole community. Thank you for sharing this. |

Every poet here's my master. There's not a single one, not one, I haven't learned from, not a single one I don't respect and value, either as a friend or as a friend in the making. I have never been part of a group that had such an exemplary social structure within itself, where I felt welcome, or even potentially so. Here I'm welcomed. Here I give and receive acceptance. Here I find friendship. Here is home. ~~J |

For the Master Poet and the not so master poets...don't give up writing even when the muse has left you. Hang in there and gather sustanance from our home. I know who I think of when I read Master Poet(s)...this place is full of them!!  Beautifully written Sunshine. |

Karilea...Your words echo the way I feel about so many of the wonderful poets here,including you and others. Sometimes the words they write just reach out and wrap you tenderly in their embrace and other times they shake you back into reality.I've learned so much since coming to PIp, especially how others can touch your heart with their words.Enjoyed very much...Paul "To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you" |
