We lick the flames of abyss
Tasting sweet full circle rawness
Uninvited, you come, like some eerie art
Feeding on weakened souls

I don’t want you here!
What would it cost to send you away?
Take everything, God, take me!

For a Moment dust is dust

*************************************

Conscious comes in waves that flow
Mystically feeling essence perpetual
From a dreamer of inspiration
Of touch not forgotten, of rainbows…forests
Wild deer

Phone taps my mind, ringing…ringing, loud
I don’t answer, maybe it’s God or
Ghosts from a good good childhood
I see you, emotion don’t fail me now!

I see inside the heart where dreams are safe
Drinking life…morning petals line embers
A fading life values so, such little things
Such tremendous miracles dancing…dancing
On just a visit…

Adoration torments insomnia…self induced sanity
Leans on every moment, every mood, plunging into my prayers
Waiting at my doorstep…for another vision, another verse
Sophisticated desire…giving cashmere dogwoods power
Glances into the north star, which moved…once

There are signs of life in silver curtains…uncertain, but there
After breathing is done, fog clears on the mirror
Penetrating a store…swirling water, innocence, crystal clear waterfalls
Like a picnic in spring, underneath a rose arbor
Fountain of compassion, silence, converting expression
Into some passion alive in the soul..ca ching…ca ching
My life was so magnificently poor, with photographs of faith
I liked the sunrise and little wading pools
Trout fishing near the jagged shores…regret is silent

Soft trade winds, I am, peeling away drizzles of rain
Beauty learns to talk…peace on earth, moonlight walks
I am sweet dreams…double layered, feeling all things
All things I may or may not comprehend…but try
I climb the Empire State Building
To touch the homeless, streets of Golden
Kissing morning’s enthusiasm hello
Catching the surf…my true home makes me woman
Tutorials, testimonials and all little graces
Who knows if I am
All I know is that I was!

Watercolors and art told me so

~ Yes, it is quite apparent that you do try! ~ and Dear Lee, you DO succeed! ~ and you convey your comprehension exceptionally well!

Yours is a very special talent, poetessa! You are an artiste!
