bitten by the winter, i curse her slow migration she tremors the marrow of my bones and bends me like a hurricane: and there’s nothing to do save worship the waves of you, wrap myself up in your crystalline coat and your fish-eyed panorama that hangs in the gallery of my eyes: they arrive no where: i am sea-wed my flesh is of salt and my eyes like urchins my hair, like strewn-out seaweed and my ears the Borer shell they hear only you in this spray of spume, in this sea-wind at this shore pressed against the wet grain of sand: there’s nothing to do save worship the waves of you. take bread away from me, if you wish, take air away. but do not take from me your laughter. ~neruda~ |

"i am sea-wed my flesh is of salt and my eyes like urchins my hair, like strewn-out seaweed and my ears the Borer shell" Me too, Maree! Loved the passion in this poem.  |

You feel and see the sea, in all it's power and ability to capture both heart and soul. Then you let us enjoy the waves with you. |

nd there’s nothing to do save worship the waves of you, wrap myself up in your crystalline coat and your fish-eyed panorama that hangs in the gallery of my eyes: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ i am sea-wed my flesh is of salt and my eyes like urchins my hair, like strewn-out seaweed and my ears the Borer shell they hear only you in this spray of spume, in this sea-wind at this shore pressed against the wet grain of sand: there’s nothing to do save worship the waves of you. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ you have a gift for imagery and personifi that consistantly blows me mothy mind... your muse is poetic gold girlie!!  I'll bare the brunt of your long buried pain |

I've read you a few times and its guaranteed that at any given time I something you've written will come to mind the next day and I'll see something I didn't see before. One time one of your old pictures and a poem you had written left me feeling extremely intense. Nice write. God bless. -GIS Romans 8:28 "And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purposes |
