Then knew again
All beyond my reach
Some wandering lyric
That opens up the wound
In a four letter word

And I know not
The breadth of my own sanity
Questioning the answers with clay
Yet here upon the sand
Intuition traces itself
   **L**

Sweeping o'er the grains
Mortor mix for barriers
As walls are high in common carriers
Yet not so deep
As to forsake my touch
   **O**

And trace the lip lines
Following my thoughts along your jaw
A frozen look prevents my sight
My hands become my eyes
Across your shoulder, bolder
   **V**

This quake is amplified
From earth to heaven
Moving into some uncharted course
My palms seek beating sieve
To rest upon your heart in synergy
   **E**

Comes clear the only thing
That I have ever known

Dear Kathleen, love your style and the sentiment, and this most of all.

Comes clear the only thing
That I have ever known

It's wonderful to read you again.

This is wonderful TD- glad I found it.

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

Wonderful!! Until the last stanza with an artistic division, I thought I was seeing eyes and a nose, noses of different shapes. Then I saw the E and realized the "LOVE" was the 4-letter word. A wonderful flip/flop from where my mind had been...a delightful piece and I want to especially ditto p.s.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
