In the Spirit -I- Moon light filters through the thick canopy of trees Evergreen and Spruce, lifting their boughs and aromas To the gentle breeze of Autumn. In the slivers of silver light dance the shadows of spirits Dancing, dancing, moving in rhythm to the Earth, to the night Their bodies swaying, glowing, being. Voice sails upon the serenity, singing peace and laughter Joyous vibrance of living chanted upon the purple nimbus Exploiting every avenue of existence. Dreamscape drifts slowly, lazily, freely against mortality Sensing, seeing, knowing the grandeur of substance Nothing can escape the magick. -II- Naked bodies entwine upon the grass, the Goddess’ handwoven carpet As the King of Love watches his children search and taste and explore Another being watches from a farther distance, chained by insane reason To destroy. Elsewhere, the dunes of the desert greet the first rays of a red sun Blistering heat pounding the dry, crack earth while within its shadows Praise can be heard raising up to the crimson sky Singing. As bodies melt into phantom mist, swirling out of restraint Freedom pulses in the first rays of light upon the homestead Where no age can identify. -III- Emerald mirror, ornamented by crystaline pools of sea Mountains soar beyond the heavens holding mystery Land spreads its fever to every corner, infecting Man. Bounty harvested by the hand of Women: wife sister mother daughter Cherished by the mouth of babes that will one day come To see the beauty of its history. Joann Renee' Muszynski 11/11/00 |

Dpoe! My Friend! Welcome to Passions...I've sure you'll enjoy your stay. Wonderful to see you here. I've missed your work, and this is truly beautiful. Loved It! Look forward to much from you. Panne sent me a couple email I'll send you...you're much better versed in what she does (all that technical stuff!) than I, and if you feel like yakking at her...drop a comment or two, she'd love it.

"In the slivers of silver light dance the shadows of spirits Dancing, dancing, moving in rhythm to the Earth, to the night Their bodies swaying, glowing, being." I love the imagery in this poem. Beautifully written. "...no single sound too rude Upon thy slumber shall intrude, Our thoughts, our souls- O God above! In every deed shall mingle, love." --Ed |
