In Your Poetic Mind

0 posted 2004-09-01 07:11 PM


White fences
      fireflies striking light:

--We lit candles  random color
       liquid gliding      just before stars arrived; {in}
layer after layer fading daylight

Tonight the world will whisper
something about art:
love songs in many voices,
immortal shado
ws-- I will
only vaguely recall
            the orchid smell of your skin
in combinations of night and glow
              as if on faith

sentence by sentence

between dark shores
       &no solid ground

bolts of silk
   lovely and moving
because I love a dangerousmemory


Tonight there are            mirrors
on the side walk;
petals
falling on cathedral steps


Still now, I know what you were
                     thinking:
we were cloud and shadow
        moving over snow

you were the last word

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone though you're still with me
I've been alone all along..Now I'm bound by the life you left behind

This is art - beautiful, shimmering -

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

It just dawned on me why my muse goes away from time to time, it is so I can listen to good, no, great, poetry.

Exquisite...... I'm so glad I made this my last poem of the day. I came because I always get a poetry lesson from your work, but I'll have to come back for that later.

For now, I'll go off to bed savoring what you did; how you did it is a question for the daytime.

Lauren,

Nice. And I'm smilling at the replies. You do this well. Thank you. Peace.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
