July passes like a sore thumb spiteful bastard rules the winter and i’m alone save for the mist of fishes that crease the sea like a well read book and i am beached a blubbering whale in all my blue garments dumped and the days drag the moon that irre-place-able moon sigh i hold it like a bell in my eyes and it too will leave leave me with yellow stars in the distance take bread away from me, if you wish, take air away. but do not take from me your laughter. ~neruda~ |

smiling and nodding (a shower, though, some talcum and a fan worked wonders) I, too, am crossing off the numbers of July.  |

Well well now. That was fascinating. I really enjoyed that one. For some reason...I saw the face of an old "boyfriend" in that poem. Hmmm...I wonder what that can mean...HaHa! Yv-Goddess of Her Domain. Symbol of Truth Passion Pain. Let Her Smile Rain on the Hearts of the Innocent. |

Hmmm... I believe those eyes hold the moon and the stars, and I'm thinking it'll take more than July to diminish that sparkle. |

God, Maree, you have this truly brilliant elusive way of writing that leaves one with the feeling of nearly being kissed. As if I could just turn a page here and there would be more, but there isn't, not right now there isn't and THAT is what makes you passionate in writing and in life. Please never stop this . . . it is a gift. |

You do know that you're a joy to read, don't you? I've never read a poem of yours that was less than inspiring...and this one's up there with the best of them. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Isnt it a bummer when the good weather leaves? I like this poem. I could almost put music to it. May the winds sweep through the moonless sky.... |

I agree, much better to be immersed in the sea than beached! You're amazing, don't forget it! ....jo |

G'day Maree. What I wouldn't give for a little winter at the moment. Temperatures here in most of Oz are very high and only for my fridge being stocked with a good supply of beer I'd probably feel like a sore thumb too. Enjoyed your sentiments.
