Tantric Breathing * Like those of tantric lovers; Respiring, Darks and brights. Lungs of earth breathe in And out, in rhythms, night Consuming heat at eventide, That dawn and day expired; * Repeats, A soundless sharing In the movement of the air. The chest of night swells higher When the same of days, Decrease... * Yin breathes-in the void, and then Expels it from her heart; Yang accepts the invisible gifts, Into the portals of his chest. * Echo's quite the same, earth and woman-man, are like arranged In give and take Of vital forces by exchange. * Love vows left unsaid, yet shared; Sitting yab-yum, folded arms around Entangled humans bring to union, Energy that's found, in every breath; Separate hearts then melting into one.

Love vows left unsaid, yet shared; Sitting yab-yum, folded arms around Entangled humans bring to union, Energy that's found, in every breath; Separate hearts then melting into one Loved the entire concept of this write, very deep and yet, self-explainatory we are one within man/woman...woman/man and do so believe there is one special person for every human being which compliments the soul....finding them, is another story? Smiles and hugs...good good write |

leave this on the nightstand... most men have no concept of this spiritual/physical union, only wanting to park their car into the garage and then to make a quick exit.......... nicely woven together iceman |

LeeJ yes, "one within"...Man/woman-Woman/man" When breaths are exchanged we become one and the same, and are truly unified with the universe....Thanks for the "good good" reply. Gentle Spirit (I love that nic... ) "loved it all"...sigh.....all I can say is thank you. Muted..Hey, I stole your line "sigh") sorry about that. "Fulfilling" is a very nice compliment Thank you. Inky I suppose there are times when simply a physical union is acceptable, but when the union is spiritual and physical at the same time, more than just sparks fly...lol, I love your comment about the car and the garage.... Martie A compliment such as this, from one who has woven many dreams in my mind, (by reading their poetry)Is very flattering... Thank you for those dreams and this reply... ------ice/ford ><> |

Echo's quite the same, earth and woman-man, are like arranged In give and take Of vital forces by exchange. ~*~ You had me with breathing... you kept me with echoes... |

Midnight sun To sit silently and breathe is exactly the way I would like everyone to be when they read this..and vibrating.... That is such a sensual act... Thank you P.S. I am delighted that you were delighted.... Thank you Froggy You did get a sneak preview, Glad you think it beautiful Thank you iliana-jo "exquisite" That's a pretty big word, "Very" in front of it is very flattering. Thank you Sunshine You centered the whole point of the poem, a breath is but a breath, but when it is taken into the lungs of a lover and then returned, it becomes and echo...one that does not stop it's reverberation until the lovers choose it to.. Thank you Again, Thank you (all) for reading and the kind replies --------ice ><> Come read to me some poem, |
