Dizzy Over you, Poetically speaking

Dizzy Over you, Poetically speaking

 

 

my words are compost

but something grows from them,

the soiled emotions emoting in the sun

 

cheerful catastrophes 

accomplished leanings of flowered momentum

drawn from buried fractures

 

the heart is a certain calligraphy in itself

and i move with curling moments of love

Dramamine elations and deflations 

 

i feel a garden's soul

in my intent

and those rains that burn

can in turn

 

open blooms unexpected

that might become perennial

and suture old wounds.

Dug this immensely... "The heart is a certain calligraphy in itself"... This gained tremendous momentum as I read, and upon more exploration, I found deep roots laced with truth... This was fantastic, indeed something grows from your words... Brilliantly penned...

Affection is the acorn from which the mighty oak of love grows. You certainly know how to sow the seeds of poetic language ,Jacob.

Since I've been gone from this website for a few months, I've missed reading you. This one is so well crafted, reminding me of your often superb development of an extended running metaphor thru-out, along with banging alliteration & other careful considerations of word sounds! (((HUGS)))

Certainly many of us can relate to love in the 'garden' metaphor. Hard work, needs constant pruning, cutting, feeding and tending and grows wild if left to its own devices, changes month by month season by season and goes on and on and on..........as always nice use of the metaphor to describe emotion Jacob.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

your response is so poetic...thank you for your words, John.

oooh I like this ... the heart certainly is calligraphy unto itself ... and your words compost? ha - never!

I can make of this as love enduring, as the cycles of life continue on and on, love is always there, and yet given a garden it has reason to surface X x

thank you for your kind words, KWP...
