Ecstatic Poetry

I stretch my injured leg out
in the warm, green rehab pool
reassuring voice and kind eyes
of the therapist, imbues strength,
and a little more oomph
to try harder and complete
the exercises

In the far corner,
a woman is lowered on a ramp
into the pool,
Her wheelchair sits empty
near the edge

Prayers ripple
from all our hearts
in ever widening circles

Visions of A Skylark Dressed in Black by Aberjhani

“The woman or man who is a poet, or fiction writer, or playwright, or all of these, is engaged constantly in a jazz ballet of vocabularies, passions, genders, histories, perspectives, death, love, and life. The music of revelation announces itself to

She Intrigues Me, Revelations Of Love by Jon Willey

If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
