My mind's eyes follow your gaze into darkest midnight’s soulful skies. Why is it time stands still as I think of you? The great dipper hangs suspended above us, on different yet parallel planes, much as my thoughts do while you point to celestial bodies, names slipping from your tongue with such ease, as if they were intimate friends. A golden smiling Moon acknowledges your essence in ways I never knew possible. Shadows follow you more closely than most, under the fullness of the glowing moon. Crickets sing more vibrantly; yonder barn owl winks in recognition, lofty thoughts winging in the crisp night air. "Step softly over the stones," you whisper. "Do not let your footfall disturb the movement of the scurrying lizards." Soft mournful loon cries greet me from a nearby reflecting lake, echoing deeply my throat's cry. Rhythms of nature blending heartbeats of the ancients fill the night air with acceptance of the continual rites of love’s passage, an unfolding of the essence of life. Wrapped in anticipation, cloaked in a passionate resolve to make every moment count, I lift my face to receive the warm moist breath of life. Shooting stars surround us as we fall upon soft grasses, enfolded within each other's arms. The stroke of you upon my spirit awakens sleeping passions, far too long hidden 'neath layers of self-imposed exile. to be continued... |

Crickets sing more vibrantly; yonder barn owl winks in recognition, lofty thoughts winging in the crisp night air. ~*~ This is a spirited soul that I would love to know... Happy Thanksgiving, Kacy! Am looking forward to this particular "feast" for the eyes to continue... |

Sharon, thank you! A new puppy? OH my, I know you are sooo busy! And Sara is off living her dream in Goldendale Washington, working with Lipizzaners and running around with her camera whenever time permits, photographing those magnificent horses. Have a great Holiday season! and yes, you WILL hear/see/read more about Love's lights! |

Siyo MidniteSun,I so love to read the soft love poems,to dream such things can be real. I was given at sixteen to a man I had never met,my bride price was high but never for me the first date,first kiss,holding hands beneath a full moons light.I do not complain so very much,in truth I recieved six beautifl children but at times wonder what is this thing love.It was not what my grandmother meant for me,but my fathers choice.

I have no words adequate enough to even begin to add to the comments others have already made about this 'write'! When this poet really 'lets go'...and speaks from the absolutely grand depths of her fine mind, heart, and spirit...the results are truly magnificent! |
