In Dancing Sun Take the rays that spark one’s morn and keep them till they touch the horn of plenty… Amid the dew of dawning glance, hem the sound but hark the dance, for it touches hem of moonsong… Let the stars of night sound forth, then stay the time of sun’s draw north, as it draws some east to western rivers Hurry up the tide of sound and stay till up the mountain rounds, and hold it till the moss part sings This is but the nature’s call to whim with one who whims us all, when ice fords all that come till spring… this is just the living thing… the woman… the wife…. the mother… life. |

Sissie "Hurry up the tide of sound and stay till up the mountain rounds, and hold it till the moss part sings This is but the nature’s call to whim with one who whims us all, when ice fords all that come till spring…" I have heard this song before, but never as lovely!! |

you don't mind if I save this, right? It whispered to me through the fields of wild flowers and corn....where I grew up. Wonderful weaving Karilea. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

"when ice fords all that come till spring…" Not sure if this was intended as a clever play on words for one of our favorite poets here, but I enjoyed it as that anyhow. |

I just sat a while after reading this.. Thinking of something to say that would come close to explaining how this poem made me feel.... Going down the stanzas, letting the beauty of the language arrangement get me high- Thinking how at home I found myself, in the story in the lines... But the last few lines...hit me in the heart...and right between the eyes... "this is just the living thing… the woman… the wife…. the mother… life." That-is what I try to say in all of my poems...but never better than that... Thank you Kari... ____________ice/ford ><> [This message has been edited by ice (12-31-2005 06:45 AM).] |
