Music from the First of Summer The grasses move like feathers in the breezes through the canyon and the fog in soft of cover brings the ocean’s fragrant sand in And the sleepy peace of dawning with only sheets for cover softly feather heads on pillows touch an eyelash still a dreaming And the buds of petals sing now with a buzz of frantic movement giving purpose to the beauty that has filled the air with fragrance And I want to dance on green grass in a dress of yellow daisies lay me down within the arbor listening as the fruit is ripened But I feel the clock is ticking in the shadows past the hedges caught within the dirt and drainage of the folding fallen wildflowers So I hold on to the questions and I wait for the horizon to reply with mauve of sunset warm with dark and heavy breathing And I know the perfect feeling is in holding on one minute to a look that’s filled with loving falling into drape of silken For the hum in dark of midnight under canopy of stardom singing soft the mad of midday with a sigh within a love song is the music from the first of coming home ---------- part 1 /pip/Forum76/HTML/000497.html part 2 /pip/Forum83/HTML/001872.html part 3 /pip/Forum88/HTML/001936.html |

And I want to dance on green grass in a dress of yellow daisies lay me down within the arbor listening as the fruit is ripened ~*~ You do know, I think I've mentioned it before, that opening up one of your poems, is a present I give myself every time? |

And the buds of petals sing now with a buzz of frantic movement giving purpose to the beauty that has filled the air with fragrance This is gifted phrasing. There is so much meaning throughout the poem. Now I need to find the other three. Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |
