To Weave a Basket The marsh twilight deep staining feet across the stone bridge I to keep there filigree of music starts to weave a basket of my heart Such variant day in wind a change touched by opening package lain alive from powder’s fragile mist across the whispered light of kiss I go there to the cave of be all lit from reflected waters three one rippled softly from my breath one still as never moving chest The third reflects the inside view all dappled sunlight shadow hued with sweet of longing bending near a drop in time spread out in tear I pull the plug within my soul to empty cobwebs staining goal and there in feathered imagery I catch a hint of destiny It like a coral ocean floor distributes time through moonlit door to see it sow imagining and mend hurt flower fragmenting Hold it up ‘tis sweet as sky studded star sung lullaby A canopy of slanted light reflected from the fire of sight Pull time across the plains of earth into waterfalls exploding mirth then watch the healing from the wound of drinking drought by time perfumed It’s plain as dirt on cavern floor and light as whispered evermore all parts be held or felt in clasp from answered wisdom of the past It is what stillness brings around and listening pulls from warming found in opening life times mending seam to shake out dust from field of dreams The marsh twilight deep staining feet across the stone bridge I to keep there filigree of music starts to weave a basket of my heart ----- from 10-01 |

The third reflects the inside view all dappled sunlight shadow hued with sweet of longing bending near a drop in time spread out in tear You are a wonder of words my dear Martie~ interwoven into the heart of this poet~ Thank you for your soft touch, it is lovely. |

"I pull the plug within my soul to empty cobwebs staining goal and there in feathered imagery I catch a hint of destiny It like a coral ocean floor distributes time through moonlit door to see it sow imagining and mend hurt flower fragmenting Hold it up ‘tis sweet as sky studded star sung lullaby A canopy of slanted light reflected from the fire of sight" Martie...this touches and gently tugs at my heart. Another beauty, my friend. Hugs to you... ![]() "...until you have read the verse on his heart, |

I pull the plug within my soul to empty cobwebs staining goal and there in feathered imagery I catch a hint of destiny It like a coral ocean floor distributes time through moonlit door to see it sow imagining and mend hurt flower fragmenting With the most delicate touch, you pull our hearts into your weave... This is magnificent, Martie. *S* |

It is what stillness brings around and listening pulls from warming found in opening life times mending seam to shake out dust from field of dreams The marsh twilight deep staining feet across the stone bridge I to keep there filigree of music starts to weave a basket of my heart Oh, Martie, this is so beautiful and touched me so that I don't even know what to reply. Me, speechless? But, it's so. :heart; Hugs to you, sweet lady ![]() Ethel |
