Purple HeavenA Poem by Laura Kate
Do you remember where I took you?
I held your hand and lead you down the path of glittering rays each one reflecting onto the blush-pink roses towering above.
We stopped to pick the daisies "he loves me, he loves me not" Over the red-brick walls the Robins fluttered their wings and leaped from stone to stone, their songs of sweet honey and dewdrops sailed beneath our feet as we skipped our way home. You were so happy, I couldn't' wait to show you the way. It was warm and comfortable inside we made blankets out of each other's skin finding pockets of warmth and bliss with our cold noses and an eskimo kiss. You said you were in heaven no-one had taken you before. Do you remember the stream where the stones skimmed under the apple trees? Leaves detached and settled down onto the ground caressing bright apples of bulging red-blood, dressing our bare feet in gold. We stripped naked and surrendered to the water allowed our breath to be taken by translucent shimmers you held me close, so cold were my fingers I held you tight between elbows and knees. I kissed your red cheeks my lips were still blue we sent purple currents to the sea. You towered over me like the mountains of Atlas I submitted to the dark shadows of your presence. Only God could see the other side. Every now and then, you took me to the skies, Blackness of heavenly delights sometimes I even saw shooting stars. Once, I went sailing past the moon. You always held my hand on the way back down, making sure I felt safe and not alone - do you remember? Naked we were, kept warm only by our bodies of gasping hearts and burning blood. Tell me, do you remember where you took me? I do. Though blackness turned to blindness once all the stars had fallen I tried to help you see but you refused to find the way, Do you remember where I took you? I do. Though you no longer care for the roses or the robins, for the apples, nor the stream. Don't you remember where we turned the waters purple? You said you were in heaven. © 2021 Laura KateFeatured Review
