The soft swells rose and fell
in harmony with the breath of life
that could tell all the secrets
hidden beneath the folds
of happiness that dwell within
the warmth of the womb of wishes
where many dreams become reality
as the gentle waves of wonder, crawl
under the areas of joyous pleasure
where thoughts without measure
keep pace with the beat of the
pulse that makes haste to create
molecules of memory that confine
the mystery of love among the moist
membranes of motherly magma.
Well written wrap round verse. It is a pleasure to read, just for its music, but to decipher, it's blown away my head.
It has a sensuous and maternal feel.
Yes! It takes a mother's heart to feel such magic. When we listen with our senses we become part of that magic. You and I always think alike.
Blessings a plenty and love,

this OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZES all things good, Eileen! A veritable love-feast for mind, body and soul. A fully-pumping heart and pulsating womb, thick-walled and fertile, combined. Makes me feel pregnant and fully satiated, complete, just by reading! On the verge of eruption, climactic! Yum! :)) One of your sensual, descriptive bests, I think. Hope you're well and fully-functioning these days. Love, Kate xx
This is different, Eileen. Maybe it's just the way I read this: but it seems as though a line would end and I'd expect a certain outcome, but you'd taken it in another direction. Almost like a Mad Libs. The first word of each line would surprise me. I hope that makes sense. Very creative piece. It feels free-spirited. Hugs,
Sheila
Your words form a memorable shape not only on this canvas but in my mind. Lovely vision and wisdom in this poem, ET
Much peace, love, and light,

Exceptional fluency of thought and word, Eileen, not a punctuation mark - and then only a comma - till the eighth line, and no need for one either, and nothing again till the final stop. And within that fluency a very creative view. Oh yes!
How beautifully you wrapped your arms around the essence of life....
Be always safe,
Karen

Jeez, Eileen, this is a poem where each line enfolds into another seemingly being birthed by the aforementioned, and as the words and the lines penetrate the readers ability to understand you come to the end of it and wonder how it was that you never saw things so clearly before. Thank you. Wonderful poetry.
