Dream me in words
simple complex
steady like the tides
I'm wild with waves unlet

underwater legs
grace in motion   bubbles
the muffled voice of fish
their lips curious   begging  troubled

I’m heading for the streaks of light
in the silver of this night
and home is spit darned to the sand
away away some other land

The singing falls in circles now
wider wider arching down
all plugged up I’m liquid rendered
tender my fins to wing this flight
I’m looking for the way that’s right

Well, I have read this six times just now; it comes out in my head differently each times.  I like it but it won't hold still for me.

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

ya had me hooked from the pic
what a very cool write...
this is a very different style for you,
abstract and alluring...as always,your gift of imagery stands out.


home is spit darned to the sand


yer so groovy.

Cant believe you need me, never thought I would be needed for anything.
Cant believe my shoulders carry such important weight as your tears.

Martie, this is the most beautiful picture. And your words go so well with it.  I like the spacing for emphasis that you use in this-nicely done.

This picture shows a virtual highway of light, and your poem carries us along it for as far as we are equipped to go. I think your feet are already on that road, though it's hard to see that against the brightness.

I have to say. This is my favorite part. I'm liquid rendered...tender. It rolled off the tongue of my mind.

sincerely,
