wide as the afternoons i love you, and shout it to the sky to a squadron of birds against the light so that you’ll hear me, beloved oh but how you open your arms to me and touch me from far away wide as the afternoons you speak to me of forgotten wishes the pale dreams which collapse you and you collapse me with the moon that survives in your eyes brilliant as a lamp and oh how it warms my soul an argosy of kisses filled with your soul filled with my sea-music ~i want for myself your trembling~ |

smiling, this reminds me of an exchange I would have with my children... "I love you," I would say. "How much?" they would ask, knowing what I would answer. "A sky-full."  beautiful you |

Have you ever read the child's book, "Guess How Much I Love You" with the bunnies? This reminded me of that and also it reminded me, of a beautiful woman standing on the crest of a wave, her hair, streaming wild, blowing with the wind, like a Goddess and her arms, outstretched to the Heavens just screaming . . . |

oh but how you open your arms to me and touch me from far away wide as the afternoons ~*~ And all of this reminded me of a song from a youth that has been long gone... but with this? Well, you've returned some warm thoughts... and for this, little one, I thank you! |

"you speak to me of forgotten wishes" The best times in love are the times you lie in the dark speaking of forgotten dreams and broken hearts... Wonderful Maree!"too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

"you speak to me of forgotten wishes the pale dreams which collapse you and you collapse me with the moon that survives in your eyes brilliant as a lamp" --what a phenomenal image. I truly loved this...I came around hungering for some good poetry--and I found it. ~*Krista Lee Knutson*~ |

Dark Angel, I enjoyed your poem. My favourite parts were "wide as the afternoons" and "filled with my sea-music". - Owl |
