ah...yes..this was beyond great.

I am stunned at the images that it provokes.

Well done!

very clever write of theme here poetess Dawn,
impressive mixing of metaphor, personifi and imagery to create the mood and perspective.
You know this moth loved this one.
Very well done.

Home is a feeling I buried in you ...
I'm alright, I'm alright ... It only hurts when I breathe ...

Dawn~
Oh my, how pretty~

I really liked the internal rhyme in this line of thought -

'defined by time and chance and lack of circumstance'

You just rock the rhyme girlie~

magic Dawn....

The sound of silence calls,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream
The echo of our souls meet

Hey Dawn wonderfully penned thoughts ...I posted a poem last night about being a nightowl unable to sleep ... one of my sons as stars and moon on his ceiling , perhaps I should invest in some of those

Dawn,  I am heading out for a few days vacation, but I just had to stop first and share my enthusiasm for your visual and poetic imagery.  Simply stunning!  And, I love your eye for observing close details and then integrating them with your heartfelt feelings.....Wonderful!!!   ~P
