It has always been there Beneath the vespers of feelings Swept into glitter where I dance Dispersed freely, raining unto myself These are the whispers inside The breeze that I carry and that carries me Winter changes her shape, thickening Still, the curve of horizons remain defined It has always been there Layers upon layers of fine silt Protection from the cold that may come Or a fall that may leave broken branches To articulate the veins of a wild river Requires the dam and spill of such intensity As to drive a man blind in a heartbeat strike But the churn of emotions drives forth my sails As I fear what I cannot control or steady It has always been there Just a first or second story In the flow of my own mind Copyright Kkh 12/28/05 |

Kathleen? The best way to read your poetry is to speak aloud your poetry... Swept into glitter where I dance ... Winter changes her shape, thickening ... It has always been there Layers upon layers of fine silt Magnifique! |

I love how you described yourself. I appreciate what Sunshine says. I almost always read your poetic compositions aloud! miscellanea |

You used some very nice imagery, yet didn't plug too much of it in, so the poem flowed very nicely. |
