CONNECTIONS

Words are words… and so much more...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Words are words

and letters linger

on light lit pages

dark places of the mind

glowing on lines

wanting release

cavernous peace

emotional fragments

shared and nurtured

they would realize

words link subtle minds

lock in pieces

making connections

fractured recollections

she’ll pick his lock

watch the clock

tick tock taps

the door now open

and in it a fire

how warm the burn

emotions never spurned

voices in her head

just words

his wording expressions

encased in letters

link linked

through distance not mentioned

words are words

and letters linger

their stroking fingers

create a world

not near intentioned

product of their invention

because she spoke

with tick tock taps

and he listened

with his eyes…

Interesting write - the spell words can weave around people...

"dark places of the mind / glowing on lines". - I love that line - writing can release the deepest thoughts or actions or feelings of a person...things sometimes they wouldn't make known face to face...

I enjoyed reading this. Really amazing writing and photo.

ah. I love the alliteration: "tick tock taps". It sounds and feels like time.
This is a wonderful piece you've got here, and I love love love the first five lines. Bravo, bravo. :)

This is different for you and totally amazing, its like the Alice In Wonderland version of what goes on here at the WC really. Abstract and totally cool, I liked it.

Words have great power. A great man or woman of speech can make you believe impossible things. Your poetry as always allow the reader to think. So many lines I like in this poem.

The power of words alone is the epitome of poetry isn't it. Your expression of that power with the messaging imagery is brilliant.
Absolutely Brilliant! Liked the use of onomatopoia as well.
