THOSE WORDS
that mutter, stutter, flutter their
long lashes on soft REM of sleep;
that snowflake, opaque, slow-rake
leafy reaches of the mind.
Words pear-hipped, cherry-lipped,
warm-sipped that lick
sand fringes of the heart.
Red-green apple orbs of Eden,
blue-green ocean drops of soul:
always heard but never spoken
their voids filling up the whole.
Why the hell didn't I say...
I thought you knew
Women's red and men's blue
Tongue tied at the rodeo
Patrick
like the shore draws the silt
pulls me, lulls me, leads me on
makes me move like i'm a pawn
in some small particle race
where the art is to tickle my face
until i contort in the shape of poetic retort:
which is all by weak way of saying this is an inspirational piece, here Kate... I know, I've used too many voids to fill up this whole!
Peace always,
Roger
And you choose you words as if picked off of a word tree with great loving and tender care. Yet, somehow, in a form of quietude. You have the gift of being a mystic. Ignoring worldly distractions.
You never cease to amaze me!!!! xx
Love it Kate.

Red-green apple orbs of Eden,
blue-green ocean drops of soul:
Lovely work my sweet friend, as always a pleasure to read you.
Peace, love and light,

love this poem.. then to troll the seas
in deepest tempest sonnet
Lady Mary Ann
I know whereas you are talking about here. It is the intangibles that we just can't seems to reach out and grasp with our thought process. Frustrating, but then, they are us, and that void needs to be filled with something. I enjoyed this.
