From my Journals of Endless Winter
~~
I waited for October
to bring heavy rains
I waited for first drops to fall
breaking all silence of shadows whispers

I sit on the edge of
water- you know right?
you do too
amidst the dark green
the world beyond empty fires

If you were to peel the veils of my soul
would you be left in wonder-  how
you belong there

you part  of who I am

With memory and light
I gather my loneliness
we parted long before we met
those moments flicker --
even late in-to night

I did not know the wind could scatter petals
into the kaleidoscope of color
dancing with dragon flies&
your whisper

I seek your face
among the ruined flowers

I go often to the edge of seas
to ask the moon what she witnessed
she sits beside me and  tells the story

I weep
as I

listen

~~**~~
Walking with bare feet
among a tapestry of words,
each woven thread, awakening the soul
~~**~~

Beautiful write pretty lady.
Very much enjoyed as I do all that you write.

Why am I always thinking of songs like April Ethereal and The Night and the Silent Water when I read your words (rhetorical question)?

Beautifully written and felt.
