Carried back heart To the land of ancestors Where Steinway pianos played Moving surreal...about consciousness Eight years stubbornly woke Living far ahead of Brittled bones Farmsteads Become eyes of underground springs Splashing happily…stargazing Sitting on the ground hugging knees With no reminder of human life Dreamers intertwined There on that beach, I found ordinary sand & Felt like a mother watching my babe sleep Watching him grow This was a place I could call my own No time where the palm trees sway Scented moods Extrasensory enlightenment Larger understanding, became ordinary words Like some secret poetic language of child birth Viewing layers of meanings in a sphere Spontaneous eternal sounds Holding no image all hues mixing... Yet, ordinary sounds ordinary ordinary Profound levels transporting me Liberating soul in thoughts Flying to inner core Increasing Sweet ordinary Becomes me Silent, prearranged Moon sitting by my side Climbing into my kin Dawn tells me secrets Wandering interactions Like an unstrung harp And it’s primal cause submittal..... |

My girl, you simply have no ordinary words... not when you string them all together like this. I like the way you portray "normal" into "extraordinary". |

I too like the ordinary- which when viewed with the right eyes is extraordinary - amazing is all around us enjoyed - S If I wander far enough, long enough, will I finally know . . . |

LeeJ, Everytime I think I've found my favorite, I find I'm wrong! You are so in touch with the energy of nature and those around that there could be no ordinary! A pleasure to read! miscellanea |
