So dreams are aster and astilbe Laced to ladyslipper lain on steep indigo slopes Of round vowels covering the freckled moon And I am causal in the way clavicle holds pantomime shadows Upon the walls at 3 AM as curtain lace adapts to Autumn's Long black lily hours to hang while ignored eyes forget homage Paid to summer’s morning And the way she moved with the tatted light To entice lavender and sandalwood to mix their scents Upon crisp sheets not yet spoiled by humid day Such profane wind has bound cords into knots And I can not draw the curtains closed To hide from glance of passing fog or the stare of burning leaves That left angular script upon the pages Printed with slow hand and pen as I pulled petals From the bloom asking again And again “she loves me?” She loves knotted skein and the tangled juxtapose of REM On tender skin Such this bouquet of night finds senses fallow field That grows wild aster along the edge Yet in the shade lady slipper finds room to bloom Delicately where once there was but stone So dreams are the stems lashed upon words unformed And the passing clutter of pillowed thoughts Shatter shackled poem scribed upon the floor Leaving late metered rose to mourn the passing warmth That came as thought of her worn on window pane Before The rain |

I love the words and images that they create within me. I love the scent of your poetry and the way it flits across my lips as I whisper read it out loud. A |

Thanks Ms Belle... I'm not surprised those lines are the ones you picked to quote... since the underly of so many of your own reflect back to similar... your eyes and words are always appreciated ma'am... |
