Meditation In the deep of listening I sway a seaweed dance where breathing is sweet intoxication and my hair like dark rain, rains up, orange fish with marble eyes enclose themselves there in green twilight daydream flowing past precision’s dart, this grace is slithering silent soft and there is no voice but a flutter sings like winged bird captured above a flower stilled yet vibrant in delight of nectar waiting - waiting this verdant display to capture bliss. The sound moves through the grass drinking dew it floats across blade and fulfills its silent velvet grace in a sigh that feathers across the swamp and through the briar's blistered path that time made to a wealth of purple lupine then waiting there in divine seclusion a dance a dance a dance that drenches every pore with feeling and peace so sultry so inclusive I’m lost for the open that I’ve melted.

Martie~ 'I sway a seaweed dance' This alone is worth the read then you add ... 'flutter sings like winged bird captured above the flower' and then you take me further into serenity with ... 'fulfills its silent velvet grace in a sigh that feathers across the swamp' I am 'melted' .... Thank you for this beautiful gift, my friend. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Hi ya Martie, Nice to see your getting into a little meditation. We just got back from camping and I want to meditating or the underside of my eyelids. I should tell I like your stuff a little more than I do. Sending prayers Forever Dale |
