Paradoxes come alive and some surreal visions stimulate the mind here.
Excellent title too.

What an erect phallic metaphor! "thinking of you, under unspoken moonbeams: growing flexing muscles"
Cosmic sexual cutlery forked over in a sensual dish of poetry!

Interesting, Jude. This makes me wonder how much of what we say is actually fate as opposed to spontaneous reaction. Well penned.

| To truly "hear" the silence is one of the world's greatest gifts...for in listening to that silence, much can be learned. Beautiful writing, Jude, as always. |

Does the voice that echoes in the silence come from within or from without, and does it really matter? The notes of softness flow through your lines as though they are a dream, that you are waiting to enter into, through a door that leads to a twin you in a parallel universe. A doppelganger of sorts that lives now in a place other than your current reality. They have the answers you seek, you need only to ask. Beautiful poetry.
Take care,
Sherry |

Sometimes it is indeed best to just listen quietly and the ambiance that you have shared via your verses is perfect for this it seems to me. Love and peace to you, Jude.

Your first stanza
electrifies the synapses
I agree with Alain:
"silence is a wonderful teacher"
especially when the silent light carries
with it the wisdom of the ancients

| The first two line are fantastic! I always try to describe what silence is, and of course silence is different according to the circumstances, but this is golden man. Human relationships could take a lesson from the animal world. There is no wishy-washy, trying to make you feel good because I want something from you, and there is no "sensitivity problems." they either like each other or not. But we like to face it through and it ALWAYS causes problems. |

| ... so much more palatable than spinach, yet this had me Eyes-and-biceps-a-Poppin anyways! Told you I had hidden strengths, LOL! :)) Beautifully woven couplets that speak of a quintessence taken in to the mind and body, tasted and savoured like fine wine. This poem breathes: inhales, exhales. Should Moods in Motion come up for reprint, this could perhaps be included as it fits the canon so well. Reminiscences of Windy Light in your first stanza ("Like solar wind inside our soul Speaks through us in tones of windy light") I like the contrasts of the sense of roar v silence (though for some reason I keep stumbling over "resembles" and replacing it with "re-assembles") and the whole poem has a gently purring and contented tone. Delicate and piquant offering, Kartero, thank you. xx |

Jude, very unique poem. I read it before bed and I was too tired to give this a good review. Upon awakening it dawned on me what you were trying to say here. You are an amazing poet, such cleverness and depth gives readers always much to think about. (Your goal isn't it?)
But I get this one, and it is way more complex than meets the eye.
The only thing I will say, "IF you don't use it, you lose it!"
Mood Food can be so delicious!
Much peace, love, and light,
Be happy dear friend,
