Beautiful poem..saving grace..opening heart

Neither perpendicular Nor parallel (Poetry) - 5/21/2013 8:14:53 AM
This must have been a challenge to write. You have managed to insert quite a few geometrical terms in one short poem with a Wordsworth- like intimation of mortality at the end.

This is how we often view ourselves when
there is no need...
we all have been given grace Lady Vivian...

Uh huh, you talking to me here, Vivian. Those bottled secrets, forever hidden from the sun. Truth struggle for release, but denied, denied, denied. Still, one day in October 2011 I found a way to release the bottled thoughts and let the truth follow the sun.

"The Soul would have no rainbow

I'm touched by your poem...the words that
you've expressed so well.
Thank you, Vivian.
Warm regards Isabella.

I'm waiting for the halo route myself, dear Vivian...another thought provoking poem---Bravo!

Neither perpendicular Nor parallel (Poetry) - 5/19/2013 12:51:34 PM
if like trees our time is measured by rings, concentric parallelisms mere millimeters apart, how close must the gaps be that link not separate us in eternity... when all measure meanders towards an immense voluminous apogee where evolutionary or revolutionary thought becomes the rarest form of redundancy and what once was perpendicular resolves itself to intersticing on MacArthur Park's melting cake...
This is, in my mind, the rarest sequel to that poem you wrote called MacArthur Park ... all those months ago...
...this troubadour is acting on his part...the calling of our hearts... ...loved it, Dearest Vivian!
Roger
Neither perpendicular Nor parallel (Poetry) - 5/19/2013 12:41:03 PM
A most revealing poem, Vivian. The separation and lifestyle being what it is until passion or rekindled love fuses the two together. The halo's are a stark reminder of what is, or has, taken place.
Respectively (Poetry) - 5/19/2013 2:08:29 AM
This one's quite sad.
Respectively (Poetry) - 5/18/2013 12:12:58 PM
tears are what soothes us when we are in pain...
I have shed my own number of them over the years...
Yes as Ron says, sweet memory hopes to replace them...

Lovely soulful pen.
Reign of Rain (Poetry) - 5/16/2013 10:17:05 AM
I remember reading a rain poem by Longfellow in the distant past; such a miserable piece. This poem is a complete contrast and has such a serene atmosphere. Faith in rain poems restored.
Reign of Rain (Poetry) - 5/15/2013 12:48:17 PM
I love the rain
ever since I woke up one day
at a hospital, glanced towards the window
it was drizzling the trees leaves
possessed droplets like dripping diamonds
it cleanses all
Body, soul and surroundings
Love & Peace
William

Rejuvenating, joyous, spiritual Spring Rain,
that cleans the body, mind and spirit.
Beautiful poem, great photo, Vivian, bringing out
joy that good rain brings to Earth, connecting us
with the Heavens.
With warm regards Isabella.
Reign of Rain (Poetry) - 5/14/2013 9:06:14 AM
Rain rules. Without rain and teardrops and the sorrow they bring, our world would be just a hot, dry place without beautiful vegetation and water to wash our bodies and souls in.
Ron
Reign of Rain (Poetry) - 5/14/2013 7:02:39 AM
Rain is very cleansing of the soul Lady Vivian...
When there is a nice gentle rain, I stand within it...
Purifying and immensely spiritual...

Winter of our Summer Snow (Poetry) - 5/13/2013 6:36:03 PM
some blankets are definitely more memorable, more supple, more lithe and more malleable than others, some hotter, some colder... and as the seasons of our lives do their slow dance upon our souls, most oftener than not, we snuggle closest to those whose blanket promises to keep us warm whether the weather threatens or invites, and this poem hints at all of that and more because the summer snows knows more than it lets on ...
Thanks for the wink and the prayer, dearest Vivian.
Roger
Reign of Rain (Poetry) - 5/13/2013 5:49:17 PM
... this verse is an anointed deluge that delivers on an ardent level of drenching purification... because, quite simply putting it, "life is a heart to process... and rain is a wedding of soul with nature to nurture a refining fire, drop by fiery drop...

Sealed with a Kiss (Poetry) - 5/11/2013 10:00:30 AM
Your poem has the same sixties air about it as the song of the same title. A sort of innocence we seem to have lost along the way. I like the romantic idea if having a special place to read love letters. An elegant little poem.
Sealed with a Kiss (Poetry) - 5/10/2013 3:20:04 AM

Iris for an Eye (Poetry) - 5/9/2013 9:29:43 AM
Good to see Iris getting a mention; she is rather overlooked in mythology, we all immediately think of Mercury and Hermes when messengers are discussed. The image of hopes and fears being delivered to the gods is quite original and your piece comes across vividly.

Oh, another beautiful poem, Vivian, with it's enchanting
and aesthetic powers...you really know how to impact...
others...in a way that's hard not to reach out.
Often wander barefoot, when visiting my favourite park
with little beach, enjoying the ticklish sensation beneath
my feet.
It makes me feel close to nature, alive and free...inspired
to write, paint, live my day-to-day life.
My kind of little paradise.
Love your carefree photo that says it all.
Warm regards Isabella.
Sealed with a Kiss (Poetry) - 5/8/2013 2:52:00 PM
Quite clever the last couple of lines, as was the complete poem, Vivian, it's just the last two lines lept out at me in such a familiar way as to give me a knowing smile.

Oh, yes, Indeed, Vivian.
The spiritual guidance...Goddess Iris,
personification of Rainbow... Fleur-de-lis
pendant...a flower Iris still planted on women's
graves in Europe to guide the soul to eternal
place...symbol of love and support, intellect
and spirit expressed in human's eyes.
Immensely enjoyed your poem. Isabella.

As the Feet Grow (Poetry) - 5/6/2013 9:20:41 AM
You have hit on a very apt metaphor for the journey towards motherhood. We all smile benignly when the little ones try on Mom's shoes seldom looking beyond the moment and into the transition we are witnessing. A timely tribute to Mothers everywhere.
As the Feet Grow (Poetry) - 5/6/2013 8:56:21 AM

Each new generation must fill the shoes of their forbearers. You have made the transition well and are honoring the one who got you there.
I have learned much from my mother that carries me in these days when she is so close to the end of her days. I hope I can give her something special this Mother's Day that she will remember in the hard days to come.

so He created Mothers"..., but you...Dear Vivian, covered it
all...and more...with your pen, heart, artistic skills
and talent......... attached photo that speaks volumes.
Thank you, so much for sharing it with us.
Happy Mother's Day and Thanks to all Moms, Mummy,Mamma

The Pen (Poetry) - 5/5/2013 11:16:56 AM
I remember being on the side of the sword in a long ago college debate but even then I was not fully convinced of the superiority of the sword. I suppose that belief is what keeps you poets going.
As the Feet Grow (Poetry) - 5/5/2013 9:20:25 AM
The picture says it all and the poetry magnifies the thought behind it.

..."pen iiiiiiis mightier than any sword"...Vivian.
Battles that writer, with words, have been fought
and won...and...left behind the world that became
a better place...rich in love, compassion, tolerance,
and understanding that...makes the difference
and brings the VICTORY WORTH HAVING.
Truly inspiring words and love the meaningful picture.
With warm regards Isabella.
The Pen (Poetry) - 5/3/2013 11:01:46 AM
The pen is all but gone, but the written word continues on and grows exponentially as the world communicates in ways that were never thought of before and change is accelerated to the point where it scares those born in a quieter, slower time.
But I have faith that the written word will conquer all the swords ever created and pound them into plowshares of good living for those of us who have to share the planet with its limited resources.
Your words, O poet, once in cyberspace, will last until eternity. Write them well.

The sword has its way to be remembered as well, but I tend to fall on the side of the pen in that words live forever, the sword usually is buried in history's rubble.

Dream to Walk a Mile (Poetry) - 5/2/2013 9:51:37 AM
How good it would be to have a fully functional dream catcher; only having good dreams! The concept of walking a mile in smoeone's shoes is fine, so long as they are Santonis.

Ah . . . Tricked? You say tricked, Vivian? I think the moon is very romantic, but it can only do so much and the stealer of the joy, and and the giver of that joy are bound together by lust.

As Plato said, 'The life without examination is no life.' That sentiment is rather echoed in this reflective piece.

Yes, the dream many have that actually comes true. The dream, combined with love and day-to-day reality is truly a "Dream to Walk a Mile." Nicely worded, Vivian.

There is an old Irish saying on the subject that your last two lines bring to mind: "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal."

That's why I like the Victorian era so much. So much wasteful extravagance cutting down all the trees to build those beautiful mansions and fill them with beautiful ladies with corsets so tight that their waists were small and delicate like the lilacs in the vase on the dining room table. Sorry, waxing nostalgic again.

You are correct, there is only here and now, but even so the here and now of us is a product of things past.

'Tis true, placement is everything. This is another reminder that certain domestic shortcomings (to go with the dust bunnies) only annoy women. Must raise our game guys!

Haunting is this piece of poetry, Vivian. The photo cast the drama perfectly, the woman being portrayed vividly and the man as faded memories. Excellent writing.

A worthy tribute to one of the world's oldest and most recognisable breeds. You have captured the essence of horse riding with that last line.

Mother of Invention (Poetry) - 4/22/2013 5:57:47 PM
When brevity bears necessity what will not wit invent? An intriguing aphoristic proverb here... I like how your phrasing makes "soul" confluent with "league" as if mind/emotion/will were in cahoots, and the product of the conspiracy is mirth itself!
As usual, your pithy proverbial poems pull us out of pensive thought and make us marvel at your ingenuity, dear Vivian.
Then there is the "no small matter" of the briefer and briefer garment parade on the clothesline of time in your picture! ...and mirth explodes in gales of laughter!!

I think I prefer Summer, not to say Winter is bad. There is no evidence of a winter of discontent in this piece, shades of growing old disgracefully too.

"Pride in your stride" . . . I like that. It says so much and means so much, and can be used, of course, to describe a man or a woman's proud and upbeat walk. Very nice tribute to the Appaloosa, a truly noble horse.

How good it would be to have the ability to close the gate on a beautiful vision in such a way to preserve it for the future. I suspect that if we had that ability there would be a world of closed gates.
