Evenings there upon the cliffs, just at sunset, the pelicans play, the ocean stirs the flow of waves in darkness running over wet soft earth the soul can be heard, sounds of sea swelling, falling, breathing rising up on it's haunt against the mouth of the caves, splitting the flowers against the sea colliding with the mountain gently arousing the flow for the mountain, for the sea to chant your name to the night sky your aroma still lingers when I stand there, still on soft ground, still lingers as the ocean mist spreads you over the earth spreads you over me, I find peace again in memory |

greeneyes, Welcome to Passions!! This was a very good piece. It is always good to remember . . . sometimes it is all we have left. Looking forward to reading more of your work. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Since I first read your poetry - (how long ago was it?- seems days - could it be years?) you have improved so very much - this is perhaps the best - at least from my POV |

Greeneyes, Welcome to passions, First of all let me say that was a great, smooth, poem. I particularly liked "the sea colliding with the mountain" Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Hah! Here I was going to go right to the beginning but I see JM covered the entire spectrum. See what Wilfred wrote of your work there in his comment? I wonder what he would be saying now? Your words written like so few take on a life of their own, and transport the reader in mind and spirit. To a beautiful, restful, and memory filled day dear Lauren, Happy Birthday! |
