Awen

Awen

A Poem by Alistair (Ali)

Cold stoles the coast in geisha voiles
of pawned Atlantic mourning, where

The plangent skirl of larids 

carry through the vast exquisite
plains of February emptiness.

Aloft on coronal ruin, she flew
in free form falling, between the spheres
she grew in brightness, and at her stroke,
the moping shale, appeared , as if transformed.

She blessed the face of stained glass saints
hung loud on hallowed walls. From a
palisade of glinting brinks, she 
hauled deserted chapels into 
parishes of lambent wake
their majesties , reborn.

You, my friend live in a world Your own, and carry us into and through it with Your words. Your words exquisite, artistic, majestic and ethereal, totally felt as a real "Awen" "Muse", if I got Your meaning right, You've described a Goddess whom You feel with Your eyes, capture with Your senses while She whispers to You from high, through the Nature around You.

if You are living there, then now I can understand more when You say You know that You are fortunate than others, I would DIE there, then live to die again!

Thank You my intelligent friend, You've shared with us a magnificent glory!.

I write because I cannot paint. I enjoy the flavor of words, their subtle tastes and textures. I savor their spice and their sea salt. They are washed in on tides of thought, and i comb the strand.. more..
