Fill Me

You fill me to

overflowing

with words

so delicately

haunting they

spill from my eyes

diamond droplets

falling, sliding 

over my lips

tasting like

the sun itself

exploding on

my tongue a

myriad colour

fountain

mellifluously

raining

down my throat

to my stomach

where sun rises

warm and glowing

your words

inside me.

The visual structure of this poem is like a glass, overflowing with the love you have of words, of poetry, of love and I can't help but smile feeling I'm in the presence of the jeweled heart of a poet spilling forth her soul upon page, shared like wine at dinner, warming our bellies and tickling our imaginations with language sublime, melted and molded in the hearth of eternal joy. Wow. I just want to drink these words and have them become a part of me, educating me, warming me, filling me with peace and joy and love.

Ooooh beautiful .. I love the flow of your words ....

[R J Askew]

It's quite something to think of others words actually being 'inside us'...clearly they are and clearly they can call forth physical responses if we have emotions and they touch them. But after I read this I was totally focused on that thought at the end. For someone to write something to move you so much definitely has the knack!

Ooooh. I like this a lot, a very touching piece. Yes I must agree I think 'I love you' must have been whispered :) Great work!

This is a fantastic poem, I must say. I am quite happy with the way you wrote it and the way it went. The emotion is obvious without blatantly yelling to us what it is. It's a well done work. :)

Nice April, such a flow you have going on here, like a stream of thought conveyed with a pen, and captured in its intensity...

I adore this..
