Silence

I spun this out of black and silver

to shape some color of gray

my fingers have the need of touch

he understands the connection

I prefer his laugh
in fragments of day for he

captivates me

like rain disappearing
into the blue of dusk
beauty of images
rich shades of darkness

I try but often fail
to catch the sound of their shapes
on my tongue --

echo too faint
over each like

slow change of color
in Septembers light

absorbing fibers
of each hand  beyond
the shadows defined in
traces   of   air

breathing in

{that his words
have stirred this heart}

I place you there

beauty filling eyes to

seep the ashes of warmth

as if you were never alone

while the sky stirs blue
~

I pray for sleep
that I may awake again
to gentle eyes

so winter will not need a reason

to stand alone

~~**~~
You're so vain
you probably think this
song is about you (CS)

Those lines touched me most...I know it.

and I am glad you do to because it is something special.

See, this is what I miss when I stray too far from the porch.

Fine write to have with my Kona this AM, Loopy...

(But I thought we agreed that you'd not write of me in public any longer.)

Hey gal, told you I would be back after I savored this one a while...

my

sis,
but, you NEVER fail to captivate
with your words Dear Lauren.

You take poetry
and lace the edges with an
eloquence that graces
this readers eyes and leaves
me with a sigh of

and a smile.

As always, your words paint a picture likened to a Rembrandt.

Enjoyed.

something back there
in that back room of you
glows under the doors
makes me want to

enter without knocking

enjoyed it lady lauren
