Transformations Moving from room to room Stirring…and un-negotiated luring Restless Breathless The smolder holds no warmth Flames that were refused me Fire burns and soon consumes me Pacing to the window, to the door Mistaken in the crumbs I waited for Moonlight on crisp white Howling in my soul Drawing in the solstice knoll Taking me…an unrelenting plea Until I break To silver soft and shadow Paws that barely break upon the snow Turning me to hunt the midnight glow And through the glass my spirits pass Hungry and free A shadow called the night A wandered passage; mystery Copyright Kkh 1/1/04 |

This could have been written by my wife putting up with me again. Talent. Words, Feeling - Do it. Explore and teach the world that there is more to life than a creaking floor, paced. Dave |

Turning me to hunt the midnight glow And through the glass my spirits pass Hungry and free A shadow called the night A wandered passage; mystery Outstanding in so many ways, TD. Goodness you're good... Patricia |

I waited to see another's comment before being the first to post here because I wasn't real sure in what I gleaned from it... I liked it much, but what I saw (overall) was a kitty cat wanting to go outside - wonder if maybe that was sparked by Muska rubbing against my leg when I read it?? Anyway...don't know why I waited...told you the truth anyway...duh! Enjoyed this as I always do when reading your stuff, my friend. jwesley |

The pacing feline, whether cat or woman... waiting. Such an intense moment that could be...or is. Well expressed K. You are rollin' in the new year. |

I love this poem. Poetry with big words, sometimes isolates me. Not because I don't understand them, but because, in todays world, we are sometimes talking at an 8th grade level, and to come here and see so much intelligence...we'll it's a shocker. |
