In the Glomming Opening new this page, a day, where sky is smoky gray and moving and seagulls slant within the curve of listening surge of weather pushed and dripping still upon impression. I long for sun and sky of blue so night will bring this full moon now, that has been cast aside to bloom behind the glomming. Imagine how it does beguile and turn the cumulous to glow, and there, a stage lit by candle, a star emerges thus, to sing behind her flowing, where wind has loosened the dark strands slant and cast them silver much like lover's whisper. Catch me now between you, oh cloud and moon, and I will dance across you thus and melt into dream’s delightful. For you see I wither here lost from beam across bare shoulder, covered in gown of cotton white and wanting only spring. And yet, your wet touched splendor has dressed the ground in green, and all around you bloom with jasmine that fills the night in me with longing coming through my heart of window. So dripping still on my impression my song has lifted and felt the rapture of each day that brings in wonder an opening new to page of time.

Martie~ 'And yet, your wet touched splendor has dressed the ground in green, and all around you bloom with jasmine that fills the night in me with longing coming through my heart of window.' Oh ... to steal just one look through your 'heart of window' would be heavenly. Thank you for sharing such lovely poetic thoughts. *Hugs* and much love~ ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Opening new this page, a day, where sky is smoky gray and moving and seagulls slant within the curve ==================== I long for sun and sky of blue so night will bring this full moon now, that has been cast aside to bloom behind the glomming. Imagine how it does beguile and turn the cumulous to glow, and there, a stage lit by candle, a star emerges thus, to sing behind her flowing, where wind has loosened the dark strands slant and cast them silver much like lover's whisper. Catch me now between you, oh cloud and moon, and I will dance across you thus and melt into dream’s delightful. =================== and all around you bloom with jasmine that fills the night in me with longing coming through my heart of window. So dripping still on my impression my song has lifted and felt the rapture of each day that brings in wonder an opening new to page of time. ==================== *let the worshipping begin* *smile* Martie...this is really beyond words.... but you know me...I will go on anyway.  First of all this is just so appropriate ... last nite I was coming home early eve and saw that incredible moon glowing orange as it rose and I smiled and said theres a "martie moon" ..then later I find this amazing moment of inspire from you.... I read this to Mark on the phone last night and we laughed together in our awe and amazement of the level you took this to. The detail, the imagery, the turn of phrase, and the purity of the emotions ... the purity of the poetry. I told him...I want to write like this when I grow up!!! This is outstanding my dear poet... you give us all sanctuaryin your verse ... and something to strive for in our writing. "I long for sun and sky of blue so night will bring this full moon now, that has been cast aside to bloom behind the glomming. Imagine how it does beguile and turn the cumulous to glow, and there, a stage lit by candle, a star emerges thus, to sing behind her flowing, where wind has loosened the dark strands slant and cast them silver much like lover's whisper." like I said sweets....sanctuary in verse.  -you--me. Some find subtlety in strangers some find subtlety alone Your eyes,you see everything my eyes,I see its all together now and I know. ~candlebox~ |

Every verse a treasure - i know i'm redundant when I say again one of your very best - but it is truly a treasure among treasures - I especially liked the 3rd verse |

sighhh I want to sit and have you read to me Martie this is so passionate, so beautiful I love it! Maree I may know the word but not say it I may know the truth but not face it I may hear a sound a whisper sacred and profound but turn my head indifferent.

Elizabeth--Thanks so much for reading, and beautiful is a great to say. Rex Allen--I'm glad you did too...I haven't seen you for quite a while. Marge--You can come and look, just bring the Windex. Mike--I know it's shinning...I just can't see it. Janet--Sanctuary...hmmm, I guess everyone needs to find it..should be located in the heart, I think...you have just written such a wonderful response...hardly know what to say..except thank you...and thanks for reading it to Mark...Hugs to you both! Karilea--thank you for the place that is you...it's amazing. Bill--I treasure your words...they are very special to me. Maree--When you come to California next time, we will spend hours reading to each other..it's a done deal! |
