"Coming Back From - Every When..." Poem

"Coming Back From - Every When..."

God whispered...
and I could see -
and the waves of being flowed through me
and lifted me up and up and
...the clouds kissed my face with their rain.

Then the winds came and bathed me in gentle-fingertips
and so softly clothed me in stardust.
The sun shiver-smiled in my heart...

and I saw - you
just
...there -

arms open, hands reaching
so far into
my soul...

and I cried.

Oh yes, yes, yes... I know that feeling well. When it happens so fast and so sudden you think you imagined it afterward, but when you kick back down to quiet spaces and the theta waves flow, you realize that maybe this kind of connection is the only reality there is. It is said if God is love, then what better way to connect than by purely and absolutely allowing ourselves to love someone or something to the point of having our very souls embraced; that point where the horizon line vanishes into the sunset and you try to recapture it in words or paint and always always fall short. But then, we have words like yours to remind us that the sublime exists here on earth. Beautifully done.

a moment of clarity, a fleeting glimpse that stays within and changes you a little. Beautifully conveyed.

This is enchanting and so soulful
"and I saw - you

and I cried.
Very touching and so real, made me want to cry tears as well
Haunting... lovely... romance in a time where lovers walked in ' Once upon a time land '
I had that feeling once. Like faery dust being sprinkled... from a place I'd never been before. So beguiling and enchanting I wanted more...but alas was not meant to be. I wrote a poem about it called ' Unchained Heart '

The touch....we are all dying for...
A MASTERPIECE, Chris.

[bob, small b. aka invs]

this is a little poem that touches on so many deep subjects. love, redemption, transformation, acceptance. it's the story of the prodigal son's return. or perhaps those are all just things i am projecting. i guess that would make this poem, at the very least, inspiring.
