in that place
of seclusion
where the air
becomes thin and tight
I have grown pale
in the waiting
I have dreamt you
I have taken you
deeply in
penetrating my lungs
spackling my spirit
with all the textures
of your soul
you kindle my senses
with utter anticipation
and still
with all the silence
of my reaching
I am pale in the wanting

There is no end to wanting
or dreaming Cat. This really strikes a chord. Always Keith
Dear Keith
I feel honored that you still read my work! I hope that someday soon you will share a poem with us here at neopoet. Sorry about the rearview reflection, but I don’t have a recent picture. My nose is no longer the shape of a baked potato, so I will try to replace my photo soon.
Always, Cat
There is always
a poem that has yet to be written and shared Cat but sometimes experience is just too much to be expressed in words and just is inexpressible. But since you asked here is a small cameo piece for you to hopefully enjoy. Always Keith
Absent love.
In the absence of your words
my thoughts fly aimlessly
and cannot find their rest.
Afraid to touch your earth,
they circle in your sky,
air breathed through memory,
time slowly rushing by.
Keith
Your poem is breathtaking, I will be waiting for you to finish it. Thank you so much for sharing with me! Wishing you a gentle journey…

spackling my spirit ...
just has to be the mostest favorablest line I’ve witnessed yet on this wonderful site. Brought to my grizzled face a grin so broad/so wide, I couldn’t’ve thought it possible.
Thanx,
Chuck
and you
just bring to my heart the greatest warmth of any reader I have ever come accross! Chuck, you are a love!

I know a guy who makes purses
out of exotic stuff like ostrige, sea lion and crystal. He made a pouch for me out of deer skin that he worked with his own hands. I know a girl who makes cool key chains too. What to do? Great writing Cat ! You may be alone but being lonely is a lie ;)
