In Silent Words

 

I sat upon a cool zephyr waiting for my true love

seasons passed without a tug upon my heartstrings

winter took a fall, within summer's heated grip

spring’s poppies never sprouted their happy essence

 

Here within this day dream my heart it breathes the air

Finding but an empty scene within this prism’d view

Colors bathe my body as so I am much aware

Loneliness my constant friend now waiting here for you

 

i tried  to rise above the sun

the moon kept calling out my name in chant

only darkness danced in the pale of night

i lay my head upon the shoulder of surrender

 

Tears now form the mist a’ drench of all that I do see

Weeping fluent as the moon which falls on me this night

Star light open canopies of gemstones shining free

Blur beneath the vision as my heart does hold this sight

 

to find a sweetness in my own name

Of every season lone of dreaming

love shed a crimson tear in a whisper

In silent words which have no meaning

Oh my, wow! This was so..... beautiful! There is so many beautiful, passionate lines in this write guys. For some bizarre reason while I was reading this, the song, You Raise Me Up was playing in my head, haha. I dunno why though.

"Star light open canopies of gemstones shining free

I paid him a lot of money to say that Ken, thanks so much for stopping in!
A medieval journey throughout the unknown world while time progresses without you? Brilliant. Oh, how I do enjoy the thought of swimming through the oceans you cried yourself, while the world twirls without a thought of you. Your protagonist made this said journey hard on him/herself (probably misread a line), and is aware of that. Regret plays a major role within this.

The power of two then. I really love this.
Wow, I really believe that collaboration is equal to BOOM! love the stunning word play, it is elegant. The words expressed brilliantly and flowing smooth in the space of love.

Congratulation to both of you for this lovely work.

My fave.

Okay, my friends, I gotta say the poem made more sense to me as two poems. Maybe it didn't mesh as much as I needed it to mesh. I think stanzas two, four and five make a great poem and stanzas one, three and five make a great poem. Great imagery in all the lines!

There is so much I love about this collaboration that I scarcely know where to start. The mixing of the seasons in these lines, "
winter took a fall, within summer's heated grip
spring’s poppies never sprouted their happy essence" Such a delightful way with words! I found the idea of the, "I tried to rise above the sun the moon calling out my name in chant" spoke to me in a language I cannot describe. This piece moved me on a profoundly deep level. Exquisite!

Is she a fairy? That was all I could think of when I pictured her in my head. A tiny, helpless fairy with thin, papery wings that whipped in the wind. I think I'll be using the fairy thing to write a poem... thanks for the inspration! Great poem!
