Cold fact

The wind in the trees are rustling

 Kismet’s alchemy a magic wand

The sky meets the rising ocean

A waltz anticipating no end

 

For far too long no applause no roses and wine

You were the open secret seemingly lost in time

 

Destiny found you my darling

Karma played its  visible hand

Some songs are poetry in motion

Yours was one of those my friend

Posted on February 25, 2013 By Phillippe Diederich Movies

When the movie Searching for Sugar Man won the best documentary Oscar, it was not just a win for the filmmakers and for the subject of the film, Sixto Rodriguez; it was a win for art and poetry everywhere.......

The first stanza is killer, so is the whole poem for that matter. I love its length, its short but just enough to really stupify.

[The Turk]

Very beautiful. You are a great writer.

[RachelReaper]

this must be one of the most imaginatively beautiful I've heard in a long time. There are some people on here who really stand out, and yes, I'm pointing to you.

[An owl on the moon]

A richly woven tapestry of thought spanning across time's yielded world. Each line is a brilliant thread that pulls the profound beauty together and gives Destiny its sweet destination...

[Emerald Seas]

A lightly written piece with depth and feeling.

"For far too long no applause no roses and wine
You were the open secret seemingly lost in time"

"Some songs are poetry in motion
Yours was one of those my friend"
Moon are you from South Africa, also?!
