The dark skies
the winter storms
seasons   end
and hide  

between velvet robes of darkness
in a shadow of his whispering voice

touch
           movement  

                     stillness

how many stars have fallen since
the "edge of air"
where  earth  will round
and skies    pour

you can not face  midnights         with time  itself --
I do not feel the cold wind,  
nor fear the storm

I wait.

for how I feel touching you
when I am out of touch


left here, glancing round, above, beneath
the oceans scene
a temple of times     rebirth me in
one breath

under fragile motion --
   look how this changes me

powerful    between the void  
captive of wood
   the source of echoes

they know no other waters

in  blue        light
he touched my face

for a minute    I,     was     lost

laying        again       quiet
in wordless thought

falling snow  still touches me --

softly remembering     I
belong to you   for


the last dance


~~**~~
I had a dream last night
you came to me on silver wings of light
I flew away with you in painted sky
Was it real
Is it what you see,touch or feel

~~**~~

Just Because

Because ...

the dance
belongs wordless,
lost
in the blue
waters,
the source
of captive voids
fragile oceans
beneath
touching
storms ...
cold midnights
pouring
around
stars
whispering
velvet
skies


flowing

Oh Lauren, this flows far and beyond the heart of love,
like the velvet robes you write of....
you are breath taking in all your majesty.

Beautiful Lauren...positively exquisite.
Gorgeous new pic!
Love ya lady~

Now - while the leaves still dance on the wind
While the moon and the clouds come spinning
Will you whisper my name again?
Again...and again...

my dear friend you are the breath of fresh air that I so desperately need to breathe every now and then and no matter how often your words grace us, I am always left wanting to see more from you.

   sis...
I hope you are well Lady Lauren...

you are, extremely missed.

live for today,
dream of the future,
and learn eternal truths from the past..

between velvet robes of darkness
in a shadow of his whispering voice

touch
           movement  

                     stillness

how many stars have fallen since
the "edge of air"
where  earth  will round
and skies    pour

you can not face  midnights         with time  itself --
I do not feel the cold wind,  
nor fear the storm

I wait.

for how I feel touching you
when I am out of touch

left here, glancing round, above, beneath

   look how this changes me

powerful    between the void  
captive of wood
   the source of echoes

they know no other waters

in  blue        light
he touched my face

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


oh heavy moth sigh..........
I had to come inhale what I missed...
you write of butterfly fragile magic poetess L...

lovely ... lovely ... lovely



Thru the water...thru the rain
To the soul of everything
Throw my heart out on the stones
And I'm almost gone
