Skin

 
I have stood on this edge 

between soul and circumstance 

between sun and storm 

where scars and ink 

circle the night 

in a silent prayer 

of love 

and compassion 

moved by the mystery  

the silk wings 

of a sunshone ray

guided by the whisper 

of the poetic moon 

where the spirit moves gently 

to the kiss of 

freedom ~

I love the terrific moment you've decided to word here. Like finally picking out some letters to put to a hymn we all know. Your short line form perfectly delivers your style, which to me after now reading you for some time, is weightless in its tone, limitless in its sweeping ideas and always spiritual.

you move through words like it's a natural gait pattern, never a crutch, or pause you just stroll through images like they were picked up along the walk of life in one stepping stone thought..

I have missed your words while I have been away. It is nice to come back, and find that no matter how different things are on WC now, quality writing is still to be found on these pages, if one only knows where to look. xox

Oh I came again to re-read.... your writes are just that way of speaking dear friend... speaking freely.

Your pen has a gentle edge that resonates a peace felt deeply.
