where churning is cloistered
prisms spirals down
into silver eyes
through her streets
a glow with sand tinted steep slide
her cold fire reaps
the quiet crackle of somnolence

Martie...have I told you lately how beautiful you are?  
Well you are...and so is this.

Love and hugs to you, my friend...

love of power the world will know peace.

where churning is cloistered
                              swallows wheel in sunlight
prisms spirals down
                          their chicks nested in the cloisters
into silver eyes
                      stars shimmer above the ivy
through her streets
                along the road of sky
a glow with sand tinted steep slide
            they will follow, follow her
her cold fire reaps
        seeking her feathered flame
the quiet crackle of somnolence
    and she will lead them home

(smiles) Oh Martie, is this your response to Kaoru's challenge because I love this son and this sounded so harmonic to Cat Stevens! (kiss on cheek) I just love the wonderful grace your words offer, sweet friend, God Bless You, 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,

Ohhh, what would we do without the moon?

And what would we do, without you?

Heavenly Martie!

*sigh* I swear, you're one of my favorite poets, famous or otherwise...I loved the entire image.  You are an artist with words, my friend.
