She was sprite, elf, wild, untamed: she loved to dance to danger’s beat, always one foot on the very edge of life. Thus I encountered my mystic love, in a place of her own devising. I knew any love she expressed, even from the depth of her heart, would be as fleeting as a desert storm; that she would fade away as a season; as a summer wind. I needed the experience offered of a sacred moment of passion: I boldly stepped within the circle she drew for the daring in the sand of her life. Though the wind blows cold now, and the love I knew, beyond the farthest star; though I walk in emptiness and pain of a fire no longer kindled, yet still burning, I remain without regret in the memory we created and lived. Now I too can dance with danger; can live on the razor's edge: from her I learned to disregard caution. The past is the springboard, the future, free to look to its own ends: I can but live for the moment. I knew heaven in her season of passion, in her laughter and her kisses: why refuse a taste of hell now? My life belongs to that untamed past where she still dances in kinetic waves but my soul soars on winds of eternity where I surely will recognize her again... |

very intriguing and visual poem me friend. your poem invites and when one answers and enters in, there is nothing to disappoint. never try to teach a pig to sing |
