colors of calm

colors of calm

A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto


colors of calm

 

 

a stifling wind

eases

you breeze into my life

wafting gently toward my heart

 

clouds part

as we come together,

i love the sky blue of you

halcyon is not dipped in sadness

 

necessarily,

and rain doesn't need to be unpleasant

if we share the umbrella of destiny

facing any causal climate 

 

with serene stillness.

"and rain doesn't need to be unpleasant
if we share the umbrella of destiny
facing any causal climate "

The melancholy feel to this reminded me much of the holiday itself, how it settles into our soul for a long winter's nap.

Stirring and most poignant, Jacob!

I really love this . . . I wish to share serene moments this way, but most are tangled in noisy thoughts. Particularly love the weather-related metaphor that you've extended gracefully thru-out! *smile* Fondly, Margie

Another fine write, Jacob.

Loved the weather references throughout. Very apt since love does tend to create a weather pattern in the heart.

Best wishes to you for Christmas and the festive season. I appreciate your support of my writing over this past year.
