Stasis appeals Loss of a single second Would sunder my heart. But love and ponds Become stagnant For want of motion So move with me Abide in me Coalesce body and spirit. We'll live, progress Share each lasting moment Into the stillness Of repletion That yet hungers. |

Ruth this is such a wonderful write.. Im loving free verse on your pen. the vocab and phrasing in this is poetry in motion. very very lovely poetess girlie.  ( more please, said the insatiable moth) "How could I stand here with you and not be moved by you." |

Laura, this is so moving.... There are poems I don't like much, and poems I like very much.....and there are poems I wish I'd written. That's what kind this one is. A beautiful thought, beautifully told -- hold on to both, they're precious. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Well, hello gorgeous! love the pic. and the poem, is different too, yes? I like the tone of distance here--and yet, it's very intensely intimate. hmmm... and I'm pouting too, after seeing your pic. (I feel so...inadequate...) |

Oh Suthern! This is the first of your poems I have read in awhile and its flow is spectacular! It reminds me of the strength I feel at work. The word usage and shortness of sentencing really keep your eyes locked in, draws you toward their end. Bravo! "A cry to sunder the stillness |
