![]() More To cross the river of indifference I will swim right into awareness where all the whirling stops and the heart wins over the mind. Where perceptions flow free like crystal clear waterfalls, bringing the gift of lucidity revealing the perfect reality. There is more to life than what meets the eye … To touch the very essence in which all life is rooted I’ll call upon the great silence and upon the vast void. I’ll cut all the boundaries which define my illusions. I will ban from my soul all the melancholy accumulated in endless nights of longing. There is more to life than what meets the eye … I know for I have caught a glimpse of those portals to eternity while I explored ethereal routes on iridescent wings of butterfly. Like ripe red apples glowing on a tree the stars twinkle on the firmament inviting me to decode their mystery. I transcend the known itineraries and in audacious determination I move into Life, I move into You. * * * Love, Margherita |

Margherita, the painting is perfectly matched with your wonderfully phrased poem. Many times through your work I've seen that we have some common thoughts -- this poem is one I will save to treasure again and again. *hugs*....jo |

Margherita - Your poem has given me some clarity and especially this: "I transcend the known itineraries and in audacious determination I move into Life, I move into You." I've been there, done that, but didn't know the "how". Thank you! |

I want "More" and more of your writing! It fluffs up my aura and feeds my soul! I am not only saving this glorious poem of "lucidity", love and Light in my Library, I am also tucking it into a special folder on my computer! ![]() Your spirit and talent are glowing! ![]() Linda |

I can but concur with the magnificently appropriate comments already posted (by so many fine ‘P.I.P.’ poets) pursuant to this ‘write’ ! I dearly, grandly LOVE imagery such as: “the river of indifference” and: “To touch the very essence in which all life is rooted I’ll call upon the great silence and upon the vast void. I’ll cut all the boundaries which define my illusions. “ If I can but once write like this..... I might somehow magically transmogrify into a real ‘poet’ to dance forever along that immortal plane where this poem lives! GRAND applause!! |
