Effervesce

Filling and fading with a soft caress
My playmate by the deep
Our memories diminish upon effervesce
Held up the sands of time
They keep

We bind and softly lay them all along
Like small sparks of fire
Out of the mist they are burning strong
Held closely to our soul's
Deepest desires

The dusk of evening, breaks into light
Filling with a soft caress
Memories are found in clouds of night
In the lovely surging foam
Of effervesce

Those sands of time will unbind the fires
My playmate by the deep
Found in our soul's deepest desires
The smallest spark
Will keep

flows like a river x

[lostboy]

where does the spark come from ..where does it go. does it create a fire ? does it glow for a time and then fade to black. time always tells the truth.

[Tate Morgan]

The sands they burn up like cinder
that has trickled our fingers through
Each hope, our time does now hinder
what wasn't, we find is now true
Very nice

I think you may have stumbled upon the secret of time travel. Every time I read one of your poems, I am automatically transported to somewhere else.

I love the painting you chose for this piece. Really fits it well. Very mystical and a touch of fantasy...nice one.
