you were moved by my soliloquy but my stageless love was bright so I fed you paleful lilies in the gardens of my night I tried to tongue the sequined rivers as lonely fell from spaces warmed you deep in chasmed orchid soft hedged in eden places the gypsy of you would not smell home wombed sepulchral in my arms this wicked fruit would not tempt dripping ripe serpentine charms the woman of me shook for wanting the circles you traced weren't mine drawing swords of edgeless echos thorn pricked eyes bled words of vine begging in the reverb of glances we twined around each other I grew into red chimera you grew into another H |

Dear Heather, you are a wondrous poetess you know. You bring emotion and ... here ... deep insight in the nature of us humans. It all makes sense, there is this touch of melancholy, but you offered it in high quality expressions. Love, Margherita |

the woman of me shook for wanting the circles you traced weren't mine drawing swords of edgeless echos thorn pricked eyes bled words of vine begging in the reverb of glances we twined around each other I grew into red chimera you grew into another ~heather...can i just say that i've spent five minutes arguing with myself about my favorite part and changing my mind on what to quote... i would have had to copy the whole thing...but i finally settled on this. i am in awe at how you master your words and at the pictures they paint...wow for the second time : ) |

I read this over several times - each read rewards focus. I can never seem to grasp things whole - they splinter into me jagged and spine tingling. Rich couplings like '... reverb of glances' waken me to thoughts - and poems yet unwritten. Good stuff. HAZARD |

I tried to tongue the sequined rivers as lonely fell from spaces warmed you deep in chasmed orchid soft hedged in eden places That is quite a poem that you have written here my friend, a pleasure to read. The word Eden caught my eye as our property is named Eden. Lindsay |
