In quiet rhythms of shared almost silent heartbeats held in splendid oscillation suspended in an infinite moment of rising and falling waves, where the gap between "you" and "me" melts into "we" and the "we" disolves into the autumn mist. In quiet rhythms lost in the melting closeness of embrace your eyes remained concealed I heard you weeping not knowing why. Were they tears of joy of what is gained or tears of sorrow for years of lack? In quiet rhythms of my own greedy hunger in self satiation of unforgottn dreams on the bittersweet threshold in the liminal space where emptiness and fullness meet face to face I heard you weep and felt your tears moisten my shoulders and did not know why ...and I didnt ask. ~Love ~P |

Paul, this was a beautiful poem. There is such perception and sensitivity and it reaches beyond pulling memories of emotions not easily expressed. You did it so well.  ......jo |

I'm glad to see your post again. I must have read at least four or five times before, thinking I had already responded! It is so easy to visual and relate to... It's written in such a soft voice. Very much enjoyed, choshi. misc'e |
