It's amazing what one can hear if one is truly quiet.
I Listened
I listened to the wind today He told me of your emerald eyes I knew that already I’ve lost myself in them before
I listened to the chickadee today So close I could almost touch her She told me of your snow white skin That if you should fall in snow No one could find you I knew that already I’ve been blinded by your beauty
I listened to the brook today She told me of your honey hair I knew that already I’ve been high on its heavenly scent
I listened to the moon tonight She did not say anything She chose instead to write among the stars She wrote that you are an angelic goddess She wrote of your persona And why you’ve come along
Thank you Ms Moon That’s more than good enough For me
A LOVELY WORK ON THE ENCHANTING POWER OF LOVE...FOR IT MAKES ONE FEEL AS IF ALL NATURE APPLAUDS THE OBJECT OF ONE'S AFFECTION. WELL WRITTEN AND ENJOYED. THANKS FOR SHARING AND GOD BLESS. LOVE,

WOW.....
"I listened to the moon tonight
She did not say anything
She chose instead to write among the stars
She wrote that you are an angelic goddess
She wrote of your persona
And why you’ve come along"

Odd that I picked this poem to comment on right after commenting on your newest work, Regis. It seems like this piece refers to the same green-eyed, honey-haired beauty! I like the format here because it lends to the soft feel of your words. Creative with a tender ending~

Glorious and beautiful... deep loving heart Regis!!
We see our love everywhere, such is the power and miracle of the mind!!
Keep shining your beacon brightly and keep perceiving your Love everywhere: because it's powerful!!!
Love, Suzie :-D
No kidding Reg my friend ~ I would of been just as happy withe writing in the stars! Wow, someone is about to fall HARD! BE so careful - Listen to your heart! I love your poem and the flow I felt while reading it my dear Reg. Your heart is so True, it shows in many ways ~ Warmly, *She*
Reg,
Be Careful! You are smitten by the senses!
Get to know the inner woman. will she live up to your musings?
Will she meld with your future dreams and remain true through all of your lives?
This is mesmerizing, but remember to look inside!

Although my initial thoughts were that this was more corny than creative, there was a subtle eloquent touch to this that made it appealing. The fact that you're one of very few writers I've come across so far that seems to have a developed understanding of diction and word placement in itself was impressing to me. The thing I didn't like was that your metaphors were very classic ones, in the sense that it took away from the individuality of the piece... while, the follow up lines that lended the climax to what I concidered overdone or unoriginal, always had a touch of gentle creativity, and originality. In the end I suppose the two balanced eachother out, and that is why I was kind of back and forth on this. Good piece overall, just would have enjoyed alittle more creativity. Thank you for the comments on my works by the way.
And good enough for me is this most beautiful "silent" tribute and reverence for the object of your heart, soul and mind. Your words match her timeless beauty, I am sure. Reverential and awed, the hushed tones add to the quiet admiration that is more penetrating than a lot of perhaps showy affection. You speak words here, but the tenderness of your hands is also implied. Beautiful and sensuous love poetry, Regis. Good enough to eat! :)) LOL Kate xx
Reg, this is beautiful! The metaphores presented here let you think not only of a beautiful woman but of the moon above. Great rread! Thanks for sharing. ((((HUGS))))
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... Someone is in Love.
Beautiful.
Well written and even without the ryme, very poetic.

Brillo, has the same message too...
It is always good when we recieve wisdom or revelation that allows us to appreciate that which we do not see or percieve. Growing is important, always, for a visionary like yourself.
Your constructs are always a soothing balm to me. A wise and insightful sage you are dear friend that sees what other don't.
I also liked the wind as a He, and the moon as an unmarried woman - mysterious and fulfilling!
listening takes us to the truth every time. thoughts are nicely organized and you capture something of the beauty and wisdom you experienced through listening. Dawn

Those things we listen to when we really listen is most profound, do you not think, Regis? Very well consdtructed.
I understand silence like this...when the heart is speaking quietly. This is an amazing dialogue.I'm happy someone else hears it too. This moves me.

The potential of human essence, phenomena and power through the sounds of nature, we listen not only with our ears, but the totality of our senses, as in the ancient Hermetic Law of Correspondence, "As above, so below; so below, as above. This principle teaches that all things are connected and have sigificance. We cannot separate the physical from the spiritual, the visible from the invisible. I Listened gives one the means of solving many a dark paradox and the hidden secrets of Nature...enables us to reason intelligently, Regis. Air, Earth, Fire, Water, Spirit...Blessed Be.
