Jude, I have been reading some of your older poetry, before my time here on the den, this poem "A Song Of Light", really struck me. I am going to go back to my poetry from this same date and see what I wrote, because I feel as though we have been communicating for a very long time. Perhaps you think I am crazy, but I believe in the spiritual world with my whole heart and I know, we have been destined to meet and do amazing light work together..
Awaken that dormant passion that I know is just beneath that surface, you need to "live again!"
This cannot help but make the reader feel "something," Jude. I find your poem most uplifting and soul-awakening. Thank you for sharing this gift. Love and peace to you.
You have no idea how good it is to read this poem, Jude. I go through this very same thing quite often, I even hear the voice as well as feel the presence. Fleeting words reminding me that I am loved. I automatically reply, "I love you too," though I am uncertain who it is I am speaking to or feeling that loving energy from. There is a portal to a parallel lifetime or to the past or future and it never closes. Perhaps for those brief moments we are ships passing in the night. This is a wonderful write, Jude, I am glad I had the opportunity to read it.
There is such peace and harmony attached to this, I feel. Bit of a duvet write for me this evening, feeling slightly toasted here! :)) Such confidence, and the sense of being in a wide and spacious place... like this "unknown" is neither alien or worrying for you, but a desired "stage further on" or "deeper in", perhaps, with the imagery of the fog. Ideas of mist usually conjure notions of confusion and fear, but I feel this does quite the opposite - like it is in itself a sort of "swaddled" write; a warm (rather than cold) cloaking in intimacy. Very musical, too: voice/chord/music/sound/answering/speaking/sing/song... lots and lots of communication going on here that is both to be heard and said. Delightful,uplifting and full of hope! :)) TY Kate xx
Jude, this soars. it lifts me. the world needs more of that 'enigmatic embrace' and "Song of Light" strikes an oft-forgotten chord, reminding us to open ourselves to encounter. Dawn PS love the new pic.
A song of light is a wonderful thought
and I do believe something larger can
feel our answers, our responses "and will
acknowledge Sharing parallel dreams"
A very beautiful piece!

Sounds almost like a search for extraterrestrial intelligence, Ace. We all continuously send out vibes and there is always someone who receives them.
This poem evokes the very light of which you speak in the last stanza and causes it to shine out on your audience of readers with the wonders that you as the poet perceive.
St. Elmo's fire merging with the will o' the wisp. Masts and rigging of ships shimmer with flames the sailors call St. Elmo's fire, a small electrical discharge caused by a storm. This merges with the will o' the wisp, a mysterious light drifting through the fog in still silence, hovering around graves, a sign of a wandering soul of a dead spirit luring you to A Song of Light. Given your geographical location, near the water, perhaps you should be looking in close proximity of a lighthouse.
Song of light is like spending time at the garden of love where you smell the scent of the flowers, hear the sound of butterflies, enjoy the melody of the bird's song and feeling the warm breeze gently blowing from the seashore. Sweet poem
Your voice creates a waterfall of sounds and the song sails on the ship of enlightened dreams to become merged with the beauty of all music ever sung to create an eternal symphony of light ...
Mary Angela Nangini's poems celebrate the richness of life and love. From the city to cottage-country and the roads in between, Nangini explores the changing seasons of her varied region. (This book will soon be reprinted in hard cover.)
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.
Awaken that dormant passion that I know is just beneath that surface, you need to "live again!"
Much peace, light and love,
