We Are Gemini ![]() So shall you collect my eyes in stare of breathless enfold born of dreams from another realm when God first wept us in blend; Where we were the quintessence of colour empyreans across a promised sky when we were beautiful combined. You were the water in the still deep of my fragrance within the woods. You were the tide flowing silk on sand in the sultry night that swam for miles shimmering the stars a destine drench. We wandered the beach barefoot, exotic, monarch messiahs held to sacred rite as you hung the universe in my voice. We were heaven incarnate, love, pure, and the moon laughed as it lingered late for it too, wanted to witness the waves of us. You were the very essence of wind and I flew your wings then into the soft of time, into the now. Rewind; begin again thoughts meld as we become touch two feathers, air to earth fate’s choreograph diving ocean's wake. We drink skin velveteen and live a thousand lives rising down into the up of falling with intensity. For, we are Gemini souls of twin flames the yin and yang of life ever burning tomorrow's embers. Melissa Long-Monette ![]() ![]() ![]() Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world! |

Melissa, my father was a Gemini... So as I read this slowly, and carefully, you allowed his spirit to hold fast and sure. Thank you. |

Thank you Kacy, Nancy and Karilea ![]() I'm a hopeless romantic and I have always believed that everyone has a soulmate or a twin flame that carries on into each lifetime. Unfortunately the course of love isn't always smooth and we don't always get to meet our soulmates right away....nonetheless I still believe ![]() Melissa~ Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country.

LOL There's a lot of geminis at PIP huh? ![]() Well I found out that I'm a Virgo moon, Virgo sun with rising Cancer.... This poem isn't based astrologically - although yes, I did use the essence of gemini to convey how soulmates are twins - the true lovers, yin and yang,etc. I found that after writing tons of soulmate poems, I exhausted all references and cliches, so I thought that using the word 'gemini' would add some creativity at least. Thanks all, especially to the Geminis! ![]() ![]() Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world! |

Melissa~ You knew I'd adore it ... and I do~ Being a Libra ... that 'romantic' stuff sticks to me like glue~ I am a believer .. but you already knew that too~ ![]() *Huglets* ![]() ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
