sculling me softly

sculling me softly

A Poem by Cardinal Robin
"

For Dani... a five word game, with a soft texture

"

sculling me softly

 

 

 

The water doesn't move

as the wave passes through

See the sea birds

sculling softly over yonder?

 

Fleeing from their

virgin home

they Storm

The Ocean Mirror

 

They steel their wits

wind in formation

sloop skim the surface

neatly, silently

as though their

wingtips muted sounds

and slowed the Watersands of Time...

 

With no room to swing a cat

nine tails wag the clouds

to free up their silver

they spill truth and sorrow lining

and a rainbow as promised

 

And on it goes

in your reflection

in my near perfect

green eyes tonight

 

And all for love

For your Love

this is very sweet, and reddish. Ocean mirror? aha. tell me about it. No, I never have read any mind guru. Those are charlatans. I live what I write.

It is absolutely beautiful imagery, Robin! I can definitely see Dani in this :) I was keeping in mind her poem while she sat at the bay and meditated, and you see her clearly in your mind while she rests at the bay. Love it, dear friend......

This is... perfect. The flow, the diction... everything. It flows like the ocean you portray, it dips like the birds would dip, it weaves back and forth the way a tide does... it is incredible - a beautiful, exquisite take on a love poem. I'm stunned.

I'm nearly speechless...Dani did a wonderful thing suggesting the softer side, this is absolutely beautiful Robin. Such subtle, almost whimsical thoughts here, and the flow is like liquid. Wonderfully done. :)

I feel like I am always following Dani in comments and she and I seem to have the same reactions to your work. Robin, I have read many of your pieces and I have read many "Love" poems, but this stands as one of the best I have ever had the joy to read. It is sublime.

Wow Robin,
This is incredible!

For the first time,
I think I am truly at a loss for words...
Fingertips and all.

You are an amazingly gifted
writer....
I've only read a few...

I want to be just like you when I grow up!
For real! :):)
