My soul knows you Has known you through eternity My body and mind- Infected with extreme denial You were amused A longer rope-always the ebb and flow. Ever. You knew. When time wound its skeptical clutches Around me When, to scoff at beliefs, Was the belief of the day You stood on the fringes Giving me side-long glances My soul knew your exasperation, Asked for more time. And in the time you gave me When I thought you lived in stone structures When I tried to bribe you with archaic words When I became more holy than you My soul heard the tinkle of your laughter My feet landing in the quick sands of reality. Now when I have begun to listen To the murmurings of my soul My heart enraptured By your luminous presence My body and mind Will live the dream of abiding faith. |

Yeah Margherita hit the nail on the head, that was THE stanza it is often not important how things, poems start, but how they end, ah to place us gently back on the ground with peace I read this poem because I believe I will soon make a fourney of faith, to a scorpio woman in a far off place thanks for the read, loved it |
