You don't know me - what my life is like:
the colour of my bathroom walls;
the contours of my environment,
or the people I share my world with...
They say that passion gives you wings to fly;
makes your eyes sparkle, your skin glow
and causes your hair to shine.
It keeps you fit, too,
and imbues you with
fresh energy and joie de vivre...
You don't know me. We may never meet -
and will certainly never make love...
But I want you to know that,
in the morning, when you awake,
you will be energised and beautiful
Every day of your life.

Oh, how lovely a treasure this is, Kate!
I wholeheartedly agree with Chanti on this one.
Tantalizing and cerebral composition ..Kate....that throws up more enigmas than answers...
Different from the norm....which is a landmark sign of someone who is seeking the ultimate truth in their craft...

You're a gifted poet Kate but what makes you stand out is your originality. There just is nobody else that writes remotely like you. I enjoyed this intriguing poem.
Chanti
This reads like a cerebral telegram......
I do believe in those things.......
sending and receiving thoughts.....especially from "fans"
its the human connection.......
this is delightful!
and mysterious!!!
:)
hmm, poem of involvement, is the energy coming from the sun or from the narrator of the poem? is the sweaty obsessed fan unwelcome? This poem is mysterious and one to mull over when on the treadmill.

...Well, Ed... they're kinda blue/green, sea-colours: stippled, rag-rolled and sponged all swirly - as the fancy took me... but, of course - given my preoccupation with the sea! And, uh-uh! No let our for you either, Sue! Our passion for and with poetry renders each and every one of us a daily work of art - like Andy says! Besides, you haven't seen me in the morning, either, have you?! LOL Kate xx
