i. quietude I am the encroaching silence. I am the moonshine of your bones. I am the color of twilight's lover. I am the shadow of a mountain's moon. I am a tree branch in your path fallen in the windblown night. I am fear out of the corner of your eye when you believe everything's all right. I am the rosepassed scent of her final breath. I am the saddest love of all. I am you. And death. ii. you inspire You inspire my darkness to shine. You inspire me to become beautiful. You inspire the quietude of my thoughts, You inspire me to see. You inspire me. |

Mike~ I liked this best: 'I am a tree branch in your path fallen in the windblown night. I am fear out of the corner of your eye when you believe everything's all right' as always, I enjoy reading you.  -SEA |

Mike~ I really have grown into your writing. I might not reply to them all - but you can bet your boots, I'm in there reading ! Always something different - Always a unique perspective. This one has a quiet hush over it. Most enjoyable. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

This is very different, made me think, read it again and again. What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life. Walt Whitman |
