another poet is born
I dreamed of
poems
and you
whispering
secrets of the night
eons
of stars stretched over
us like blankets
of ebon light
jealous of lovers
and lovers of poets
we ruled heaven
like gods awakening
into skin,
eyes of rain
filling
i tasted your salt
i tasted your blood,
i fastened myself to your roots
like a ball of earth,
triumphant with the spirit of the lily
and the rose
to rivers of stones
I give birth.

simply beautiful poetry
There is such a dreamy and ethereal feel to this birthing. I don't know about yesterday's poem, but this one is simply lovely.
I loved the taste of salt, blood and the fastening of self to root. Wonderfully rich with visual and emotional holds that go beyond the physical. I felt like I took a breath of fresh air.
What would I change? Not a thing. This is simply beautiful poetry. ~Pamela

I told you so.
Every now and then, a piece of free verse comes at me and says..."please listen, I've something powerful to say".
"Like Gods awakening into skin."
This is quite beautiful.
