There were no clouds today Just this tulle canopy that feels so much like an auction tent where my dreams are sold at random bid My pen tilts in retrospect of script My reverie fades me into a letter to the mystic I just need a closing Perhaps Love, The one you muse If only I could tame your name in my thoughts and know it as naturally as I know my own These words that are tumbrelled in my head port themselves fortification How eccentric every word becomes when once they were eluvium How eloquent they are when spilled from broken vessels and open-air pavilions of the soul.. They are exotic then They are tendrilled frills and bee ridden blooms even at noon on Thursday They are flirting cilia in pink candy hues piped on placard fronds Invitations While everything just lays there restless, waiting, for someone else’s signature I ponder my own as I pour myself through the window among mimosa and beyond |

An illumination bright enough to gleam the shaded heart, trusted to be released on favorable winds. Keep the auction's reserve high, and your chin as well. Bonjour! |

I just need a closing Perhaps Love, The one you muse If only I could tame your name in my thoughts and know it as naturally as I know my own ============= Transitions ... slow discoveries ... the essence of what rumbles deep inside us that causes the tilt of balance in new perspectives. Beautiful verse and one I will need to read a few times to completely take in. Very much enjoyed. |

  (smiles) Yes, yes, and to tame the heart in such a way is miraculous and such an extraordinary feeling of delight! (kiss on cheek) This flows with such gentleness, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Regina, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Well I dont know which I love most about this..the imagery or the metaphors...perhaps its the poetically perfect mixing of the two here that you've created this enchanting write with, and done so smoothly that is feels like a cool breeze on humid night of longing. Beautiful poignant write Regina...brings to mind the idea of placing a letter in a bottle and tossing into the ocean. How she loves me, I dont understand |
