Too Quiet?

no, not really,

no,

not too quiet ~
mind is just working
under spin of needling thoughts

functioning and
operational it is, indeed

and I am not displeased
to be quiet

for I am gathering the moments
to gyrate
gold
and liken to the rays that warm
something
for your soul

to sparkle off the somber pool
is to find diamonds
and not froth

quiet

not to see storm clouds turn black
but to see one cloud
gleam brightly in reflection

quiet

center into the
middle
behind the eyes
closed
not toward the back of the mind
but there

center

that spot where you can flick
lightly

with a feather’s
touch

close your eyes

center

and your mind will take
you to poetic
reverie

and your body
will pursue

and your pen
will pour

quiet

where it is never
too quiet

but just

quiet

enough

write with grace, all others lose face;
"Jo was very tall, thin, ... and reminded one of a colt..." LMA

WOW...Brillant silence Lady...
what a cool premise this is...your pen speaks volumes poetess white

I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep.
I'm in too far, I'm in way too deep over you.
You'll always be the one.
You were the first, you'll be the last.

I know the joy of quiet,
seldom truely obtained in the city,
but quiet enough for thoughts.
Enjoyed.

Nicely done.

LadyInWhite~

When in quiet
my name is spoken
I treasure the true-measure
of silent token
I gleam a seaming
of ever-dreaming
penning from within
fleeting thoughts of whim
Never am I alone for long
with muses tenderly
calling me home

Gawd ... I LOVE an overdose of inspiration ! !

Thank you, gentle lady.
