She bowed her head only When the high winds I cannot feel Blew against her to set braided hair in streams to fly And I sat underneath the edges of her will Bathed in shady solace grafted to the clouds Finding the silence within myself Too much to explain but as the whorl Of some high walled eye she was yet to build And I was too small to own Should she pass it over me and glance With interest at the small heart I was Yet inside this still I embraced the roil of dark bottomed chill She sent in front of a rage time would loose Along thick stemmed grass and deep rooted fir Naked in the draft of plains She stood as if motionless Breathing in and out again her rain Where I wet my hands Then painted the scent of summer on your skin In words I could not say but in the silence Deep within my storm soaked soul Leaving only paragraphs to dry slow From fingertips that rose and fell against The softer spellings of love Low she howled The glyphs she wrote on sky And I watched your eyes move in time with shadows Scattered across white walls In a moan of unwritten tomes Stretched along lips in a beg Of being spoken out loud I found then the quiet pools of you And washed myself within the runnelled strands Gaining again… One more moment inside the thoughts of you And one more refrain of silence Sung in summer’s rain |

Where I wet my hands Then painted the scent of summer on your skin In words I could not say but in the silence Deep within my storm soaked soul Leaving only paragraphs to dry slow From fingertips that rose and fell against The softer spellings of love Even if the forums were to hide the poets' names... I'd know your work... for it's not merely a matter of reading... it's experiencing your words. The above held me a willing captive... *S* |
