Skylark (A collaboration with Brother Ed) On nights like these when the sky is filled with moon and the days' foggy exhalations have settled dew-like she sheds the city as easily as she sheds her shoes to dance. This is a memory which does not pass her: Should you ask her where she came from she would answer like a sudden bell a cry of tigers. She is the "define-it-ely" kind and lives among the roses. The darkness calls her name she does not see the moon or rise of hill but through bough of thorns she sees the death of day a bitterness of tongue a grail of flesh and kisses in the sour: Pacing in her trysting place she's an uprooted seed seeking deliverance upon the night-wind baring herself to his airy caresses straining to hear in the trees his seductive whispers his impatient demands howling through the valley. She awaits ¦ the wanted touching that raises the flesh like a water-lily presented to the sun she is more than floating leaves and flowers she is the last cry that owns the universe. Note: This poem was inspired by the notion of Rhiannon. Both the goddess, and the song. [This message has been edited by Dark Angel (10-10-2003 12:40 AM).] |

What an awesome collaboration! Each line more wonderful than the last. As I read, I was in hope for another line to savor. I do love this and have to agree with Edder. CLICK...into my library as well! Patricia |

I think you both have circled the compass. There is a bird...Skylark Song...Skylark Movie... car... book... now, a poem. I love the sharing of your inspiration as well, because when we share the basis of our inspiration...we allow others to think along another plane as well...we open doors for them... You two. I sit, am amazed, and profoundly humbled by the reading of this poem. Yes, I do believe you've circled the compass.  Library [but of course!] |

DarkAngel & Wranx~ As lovely a dueting as we'll likely see~ Perfectly seamed ... one thought into another~ Skylark is my favorite siren song of all times~ I still get chills at the beauty of it~ Expecting to see another from the two of you~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |
