Jean`te Returns


Time came for sun to begin evening fade
chill took invitation, set to creeping
holding night fearful
in shivery keeping

wind danced upon silent cue
with macabre movements of intent
tonight it would not be so easily quelled
power and force….strength unspent

liquid blackness coated the sky
filled not with emptiness, but indignation
tangible, solid in anger, aversion
wanting only complete annihilation

starlight was lost, as was the moon
in covering, controlling, steady path
to eyes watching and those who could not see
visions of sadness, impending wrath

yet one stood defiant in  storm
unwilling to be controlled, refusing submission
daring so boldly to display mirth ~
having foreknowledge, that which is written……
~SEA~

* special thank you to Lady, for all her guidance, and patience

This is the darkest dark I have ever seen.  It is easy to paint a picture of something with words, but to paint one of total darkness and emptyness in so few words is impressive.

BRAVO!!!!BRAVO!!!!Standing proud and defiant against the storm receiving strength in the very stance taken. You paint much here for the eyes that can see within the darkness you weave. BRAVO!!! I love it.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

this is indeed impressive...
and you have chosen the perfect teacher to help you reach for new levels in your poetry.
The imagery and vocabulary in this is wonderful...polished and well done.
Perhaps we will soon be calling you "Lady of the Sea"  *L*

This distance has shown how the road remains alone
Now I'm looking in my life ... for a truth that is my own.
