Apart from the obvious signs, that were many growing thick below eye level untended instincts mistaken for anxieties ripe for weeding out no-one suspected and least of all, I. There was nothing written in words or in your still-smiles and I could not draw enough of that landscape and languages felt in a sun that had shone over so many other conversations than ours. Maybe it was that first dazzle of early summer sun, that danced you before my eyes long after the day is over an afterimage of a part of you kneeling upon unsalvageable grounds grounds, that I love even now. I never would have guessed Aerial views would be so perfect despite the grave endings that meant losing touch with so many shades of green. A patchwork of seperate lives, has never been so beautiful. |

Geez, and I'm sorry I was a distraction! I was just kind of freaked in the moment, gem...one of those synchronicity thangs, and I dunno why, but they still delight and startle me! I'll try to behave in the future. This poem is striking in its construction, just like as apparent as the title conveys. Warmest regards, and my apologies for the added link - I just get so excited sometimes. |

I must've accidently forgotten to post a comment, because I remember reading this. I wanted to tell you how wonderful this is, as with all your writings, I feel I can relate to you. It helps. |

Just love the images here Gem, It's always a pleasure to read you. It's a Maree Well I see you doing, What I try to do for me, With the words from a poet, And a voice from a choir, And a melody, nothing else matters. ~Stevie Nicks |
