she sits silently within
spiritual shadow's reach,
contemplating

whispered wisdoms received...
from one who does teach
the essence of soul,

as word-by-word, line-by-line,
a shiver of shoulders sighs,
welcoming release of mystical musings
wrapped in heartbeat warmth

she rises slowly to walk
a dew covered pathway,
stoops to caress
cedar scented offsprings

the essence presents itself

~Life~

gather the scents,
then make sense of it all

stay the course

~Peace~

Simply beautiful!

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

oh Kacy, this was magnificant...and I'm overwhelmed not only with the tenderness of this poem, but also, that you read me and understand my poetry...some would say, this particular poem of mine was steamy, but you, you see beyond, (bless you dear heart)do you know that this and you are the greatest gift, anyone could ever receive.  Thank you
Much love sent your way....

  I'm sitting here with tears of joy in my eyes, you've made my day...

Shadow in blue, thank you so much for that kind  reply.
Lee? You are welcome dear soulsister. I read everything you write, and am often inspired to think beyond the surface layers of your words. Sorry for the tears, but if from joy? let'em roll freely.
