Breathe her in.

She's a breathless flower
And she speaks in silent sway.
Her eyes will puncture truth with sadness;
With crimson on a scented blade.

Where fields and ripe bodies
Spill their blood
On shaking strands of light and dust
I take her fragrance,
Hold it then,
With a hint of death
And fragile lust.

I give no love,
To the heart this flower stains
And fear the eyes her color holds
Where frailty remains.

Then,
You say I lack the eyes
To tell beauty
With its twisted tongues and thorns.
But nature's dying breath
Turns to blue
From the illness
In this sea of tears I've left.

I sit here speachless. I don't know why no one has commented on this.
This is powerful, to say the least.

I will look for more of your work.

Thank you,

Pat

With lines such as this, I'm sure I'll return to read read again.

Thank you. I will always try to post some reply in some or another. This is a poem about the most beautiful painting I have ever seen. I just had to write about it. Thanks for replying. I agree with you "Regards". I really would like people to look me up. I feel I have a lot to say.
