THE CLUE

Living to die....

THE CLUE

Cool is the breeze at altitude,
Clear is the sky at noon.
Calm is the Spirits' refugee,
Seeking her midnight moon.

Peaceful the day with Mother Earth,
Witness of sunsets past.
Stealing the cares of those who mourn,
Secrets of what will last.

Undress the thoughts of sacrifice,
Bidding the night's repose.
Seek I the day of times ago,
'Ere bloomed the velvet rose.

Day weaves a path to no man's land,
Held between quilts of blue.
Knowing that soon our paths will cross,
History is our clue.

"Undress the thoughts of sacrifice"

very eye-catching. short. simple & beautifully written. history's definitely an eye-witness of love -- the love that needs no land but heart to live in so undressing the thoughts - the veil of uncertain thoughts - might be itself "The Clue" to "bidding" nights. kinda intriguing poetry. looking forward to reading more.

You write with such an enormous understanding of what the word Emotion means. You're never afraid to venture this or that moment and whatever it holds. And then - then, you write meter perfect!

There's retrospection here, usually i would nudge that into the Now.. but somehow, somehow you've nudged me into a kinder, gentler world in which one could sit a while instead of run with the herd.

I rewrote a few lines to make the meter more acceptable to the 8,6,8,6 syllable count if you'd like to read it again...but if not, it's ok! ~SP

"History is our clue" there's a cycle effect here-- I dig it:)
