Taste the essence of summer as it dies Surreal imbalance of seasoned mischief Wind religiously lingering The sky's shrine of unholy martyrdom Breaking stars upon papered dreams 'Til heaven crumbles and Relinquishes a whisper, a hint.. Of pure autumnal gold. Do not let the threads slip under Fingers. Weaving, unweaving, endless Pattern of demise. Threads of souls, bearing marks of thyme. Herbed abundance in soundless words Sun is shining, silvery cold Impassioned lips daunted by tints of Expresso Wonder how it feels to murmur sweetly Into the ears of Lady Muse "Feed me with your delicacies, a yearning for Painted eyes and knotted hair Spilling down to waists encompassed by satin And hands Lacing themselves 'round rarefied svelteness Teaching me to carry my song like liquid glass" So simply strange, the desperate roads Collections of dust and thickened country air Musty with haste, Suffocated in aromas of Indian summer virginity Unbroken yet by fall's guilty blush Quiet, unyielding chill Take the shorter path, the longer way home Bones inept to the fluid movement I inflict Destined to read the inscriptions of a pending October moon Dirty gray faces of stars cascading 'round her Imbued by faded shades of summer Hues awry But soon, harvest shall relinquish its maize Patience, sweet patience, My sky Autumn draws unceasingly near. For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch, And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.--"Romeo and Juliet" [This message has been edited by IndigoEve (10-09-2003 07:17 PM).] |

IndigoEve~ 'So simply strange, the desperate roads Collections of dust and thickened country air Musty with haste, Suffocated in aromas of Indian summer virginity Unbroken yet by fall's guilty blush Quiet, unyielding chill Take the shorter path, the longer way home' I would *sigh* to be as poetically "experienced" as you~ This is just another example to me of your outstanding ability~ You are one fine writer~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |
