Ponder


Life, mine
in test pattern,
chaotic in view,  swirls,
schemes, unweilding, monotonous,
to some.

Each day
in whittling,
turning, shaping, carving
a place for me, but feeling stoned,
hardened.

Inside
a gem, seeded,
devitalized, unsmoothed,
awaiting one's discovery,
notice.

Perceive
a prismed mind,
chandeliered, suspended,
branches reaching out towards the light,
reflect.


~Wynter

It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul."

Soon...it's in the air.  Can you feel it?  Forgive me, it's way too early for me to be up, I think I may be hallucinating.  lol
Most ponderous write, this!

(sigh) Sooooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, this is my favorite part but I love the whole poem, it reflects with beautiful surreal visions and dreamscapes! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is gorgeous! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Maureen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

*sigh* a diamond in the rough waiting for the gentle touch of a master jeweller to polish you to life again. Stunning...I love it. I know just how you feel. It will take someone very special to bring out the perfect facets of the gem that is your heart. **big hugs**

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

beautiful thoughts, Maureen, sometimes we just write our hearts out and are better for it, you wake up one day and realize it's all been terrific therapy.  At least for me, it has. I liked this one.

What a beautiful description of a lovely, feeling person.  As for being stoned, uh, well, ah, ....

I loved it!
