So I make you painted scenes in still waters yet each night finds me searching for color would you understand? each stone is fragile each with a place The sound of wind undresses trees naked open these same trees that bare fruit when winter dies in a field of stars, I once touched your palms felt love stronger then sky “leave the memories of dragon-flies in flight” let beauty sleep in morning resting softly in dusk take what you will before the next song comes along and I fade a tiny dancer in your arms I will re-arrange the flowers later -- Your name a trace of light upon my lips Then will you understand your depth--& my inability to stand still for you to see that which I am a piece of fallen silk invisible to dawn ~~**~~ There are moments when speech is but a mouth pressed lightly and humbly against the angel's hands.

such a lovely poem...but I think my favorite part (and there were many) is: "The sound of wind undresses trees naked open these same tress that bare fruit when winter dies" there are so many levels...so many layers...so many connotations...it will take some time to digest this delicate write...thank you for sharing |
