her silhouette icing-fog-- Bayou Segnette... Cypress tree of gray and blue a frost of moss splayed on the moon River wide and muddied deep legends kept as liars sleep pirates boasting piracy they toast the ghost of Jean Lafitte... Bricks, uneven, caked with mold. There is presence in the air-- the magick of being aware. upon these streets. Inhaling home, the dead can breathe. All the levies of belief, must contain Mississippi. in perfect trust. I know the cracks and patterned dust... Inhaling home-- a comfort's meal all reality's surreal... Inhaling home-- serenity... Home again. Finally free. |

There is aura of the old. Bricks, uneven, caked with mold. There is presence in the air-- the magick of being aware. My feet are sure upon these streets. Inhaling home, the dead can breathe. All the levies of belief, must contain Mississippi. ================================ You do know how cool this poem is dont you? I love the imagery in this, and its certain haunted yet inviting appeal.That first verse is so cool, With the Rams being there, they are showing lots of New Orleans sights and sounds to us on the news, and it all has such a deep and rich history and sense of "magick" about it. And? only you could come of with "levies of belief" Ya mean thats whats holds back the rhyme water??? (vials baby send vials)rofl   |

I grew up by the Mississippi. Have wonderful memories walking, fishing and just relaxing along the river. I go back now and then. There's no place like home. Thanks for the memories. -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com |
