where the wild flowers grow

Times like these,
I wish
I could quit
writing down your bones.

Lost the feeling
of my skin bleeding.
Winter
has ended
in my veins.

You've melted
my snow
away.

Strumb,
strings ..I've watched you play.
Love darkens it's course in the scenery,
as though pulsating.
Through each finger placed
chord
that quakes the earth below it.

i hold that picture
as if punctured by rose..
enlightened by the pain
that beauty causes..

Touch, oh love,
for this heart aches..
in desperation we seek it..
we play it
as though broken string dreaming..
had coursed down barefoot against the tile..

I'm wounded by your silent expression,
your chiseled face, pointing downward..
Fingers in dance following
with black and white portrait..

I feel so faint.. watching..
your poetry aura movement increases..
Playing like a hyper cloud on
the playground in the sky..

You paint castles in the sand,
measurable supples of droplets crumble..

Play away
winter
in my vein..


Play old soul.. love again..
stringing up..
the daisies.

Meghan...wow...I love this.  
You've got some great lines in there.

For example, this...

"Times like these,
I wish
I could quit
writing down your bones."


And this...

"You paint castles in the sand,
measurable supples of droplets crumble..

Play away
winter
in my vein..


Play old soul.. love again..
stringing up..
the daisies."



Very cool stuff there...nicely done.
Hugs,
~Vicky

When the power of love overcomes the
love of power the world will know peace.

For an opposite view of this very thing, Kaoru, hunt down my old poem Acoustic guitar, wherever it may be. We think alike sometimes.

"Love darkens it's course in the scenery,

This is an original Sonata of how love influences, exactly as deep as it sounds here

Thanx for the read

Khalil Gibran
