Rewrite of Silent Sweeps.

           Speak to me

I speak to her in silent sweeps,
In mental signs and savvy leaps.
Soft ambience of muted cries,
But into emptiness it flies.

Do I a penance I don't know?
Where gentle senses cannot go
Enter through the hallowed door
Into the garden of amour?

I wait to see a dawning light,
That little bird of innate sight.
A ghost of tremor on her lips
A kiss in true that's not a kiss.

An inkling of the smallest reap
A tear drop of the smallest weep.
One fleeting transcendental sigh
A recognition caught in fly.

This dove I send in hungry chase
And whispering in ghostly grace
Has driven me to near impair
This phantom bell she does not hear.

So tolls my spirit bell in swell
Thus opening my gates of hell.

she sought in silence
toll of bell
she felt along
the gates of Hell
blindly cast
for true love
gone on the wind
with the dove...

sorry to be "first" in answering...but I always feel as if I have missed too much...and I care not to miss you if it is in my power not to...


Karilea
If I whisper, will you listen?...
I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound.

when I read your words I always hear bells

Some people find subtlety in strangers
if you find anything~let me in
Your eyes~you see everything
my eyes~I see it all together now~and I know

Karilea,
A phantom kiss has gone array.
It will circle back another day. *L*

JM,
To whom the bells chime. *L*
Winkiewinkie, Stinky

Oh, Sy~
This is such a longing pen from your heart.
'An inkling of the smallest reap
A tear drop of the smallest weep.'


On another avenue -
This brought to mind one of the greatest pick-up lines
I ever heard ...
The day was mid-April 1993 -
telephone repairman introduced -
His line - 'I can make your bells ring.'
AND HE DID !
*giggles*
Hugs n' kisses to you !

Sy,
what a weave, emotion packed and flowing. I particulerly related to
"An inkling of the smallest reap
A tear drop of the smallest weep.
One fleeting transcendental sigh
A recognition caught in fly."
Absolutely stunning!
write on, with song
