Touch

sudden reminiscence

and there you were 

a daydream in your delicate palm 

I watched your eyes race the sky

and heard your sigh

as you fell to your knees

to the mirror of dark waters  

beckoning a rainbow from sullen clouds


my Time machine

of crickets and songbirds 

the summer wind , and a million stars 

a music box  

as the universe spun around us 

brilliant and huge 

this unknowing , this adventure we called love 

between goddess and prince 

a violin and bow 

stillness
 
permeating silence

such are the secrets 

of touch , and the sky 

and the mandala 

of her eyes ...

A wonderful exploration of love, relationships, nature and the harmony between them all. I've always struggled when writing about these sorts of things and I admire how you've done it, the delicate yet vivid images...A true joy to read :) thank you and well done..

Such key words - nature, and harmony . Thank you for reading Bertie

As always, beautiful with calming imagery, though powerful. I thought this was particularly interesting:
"as you fell to your knees
to the mirror of dark waters"

I think that adds depth to the emotional poem you write- a sort of reflection, good or bad. I love the whole thing and how everything ties together. It's refreshing, coming back to read you!
