Stunning collaboration, Frieda and Jack both!! Both of you have composed some incredible imagery for this piece (which I happen to be partial to in poetry).
Jack, I love your "dark side," so to speak, with its "deeper shade of black devoured your soul." And just as much, Frieda, I love your "light side," with its "fireflies flicker," and "tears evaporate in reflected heat," and "dawn's sweet zephyrs on jeweled beams." What an intense combination of positive/negative images, so romantic, loving, and adventurous!!! Ooh, I'm just gushing. :-P

this is beautifully penned. Have you ever seen the first F'antasia by Disney and the end of it where Night on Bald mountain is coupled with Ave Maria? This is the poetic version of that masterpiece. And I found it enthralling to read.

Life is such a mix of dark and light.. night and day... winter and summer... Your collaboration speaks to the blending of all that comes into us.. all that sings through us... all that we become in the blending of the colors... This is beautifully powerful....

"dawn's sweet zephyrs on jeweled beams." Wow, you implement the use of my favorite word and I adore you for it.
To find such intelligent sweetness, timeless and pure i'd seek millennia a moon how ever dark.
Excellent write. :)

OMG!!!!! I read this and understood it! It wasn't someone else's beautiful dream or just beautiful words strewn across a page as most of your works seem to be to me. It was as if this could have been my own reality. I'm so sorry, but I'm glad to have finally been able to personally connect with a writing of yours rather than just admire and marvel at your poetic genius, Cause for celebration

Happy you could find a connection Annabelle. It was my honor to write with Frieda.

What are you trying to say Annabelle Lee? ha...thanks so much, glad you understood this one! ;-)
If you want to know me, read my poetry, it's all in there. I am a mother of three sons (my finest moments) a sister, a survivor and a little bit crazy. I lost my beloved sister to suicide, so you'll.. more..
