Years touch flowers tender, sweet charity Like white minks running over shipwrecks Ageless inferno, chamber’s golden matrimony Hybrid roots human providence Where trees part, inspired warmth proceeds The doubt, the first encounter Heroic dreams, stacked in lofts, like stars Running down my chin I feel the hand of summation Oh, arrogant grin Bolsters intrinsic beauty Serpentine impulse makes entrance Sub-atomic particles Strain for the embodiment Like a solemn oath Which tethers on summer nights Ancient beings randomly transform Leaving me, speechless Yes, indeed I know the shores edge & Specter of black disease The jagged rocks of treachery Picking off lives, one by one Clinical assassins Crouch belly genocides Still walking the front page Of days end Their croaks and moans of blood chilling Sorrow, though, mine appears randomly phobic Like a lie...aborting life But... I choose to know sounds of heather Where the enemy vanishes Bottomless oceans, eye dialect Of the four winds Call me idealistic.... To look within, for the Holy Grail Where corners of some southern sea Lap agape, like a quiet pillow Monitoring, a new age That is what truth remembers There is where, brides walk into evening Like a soothing vesper on its knees There is only love |

"Like a solemn oath .... which tethers on summer nights.." I love that. Bob |

Had to come in here just because it was you...also had to read it a couple of times and finally decided that it's all about just three lines...actually the first of three, but they fit inclusively. "That is what truth remembers There is where, brides walk into evening Like a soothing vesper on its knees" ....and it saddened me...which makes it just wonderful because it invoked feeling and thought. I enjoy you, my friend. jwesley |

LeeJ If you are as lovely as your words, then you are beautiful! I think you must be.  |

Yes! Yes! and Yes again! We can choose the world we live in and that which we gift to others - you write love so well - and your heart spills compassion - Beautiful this, beautiful you - Hugs - Susan If I wander far enough, long enough, will I finally know . . . |
