I'll start with the technical bits...inky veins, I love that...and shanghaiing...even I would never think of using that word Mrs.R ;P And of course I love the prominent presence of blue in this piece, cobalt'd, sapphire'd and so on...the presence of blue is always a sure-fire way to my poetic heart ;P
Now for the important points. This is hands-down one of the most eloquent odes to a muse I have ever read, and the rapid popularity that this one has garnered suggests that I'm not alone. This is definitely one for my library...the depth and richness of the emotions in this piece just demands repeated readings. I am truly in awe of this one. And if anyone's muse demands such devotion, it's yours, for she's made you the best poet in the Cafe...I won't speak for anyone else, but you set the standard and raise the bar higher than anyone I can think of in terms of marrying pure emotion and pure imagination. You've done it again love :) xo

Friends are wonderful when they allow us to see the world through new eyes... It is fun to see the eyes of our friends open up to their own consciousness as well.
Beautiful write Frieda.

My oh my...it is 5:43 am and I am now wide awake. This poem wrapped around me like a fine silk scarf, it is colorful and festive like a Mardis Gras parade, smooth and soft as a fluttering wing on a warm breeze and as beautiful as anything these opened eyes have ever seen. I know I have said this many times over but this poem right here may be my all time favorite of yours Frieda. There is something very happy and very pleasing about this. I fashioned a melody in my head as I read this because you know I can not hear the sound...and who needs to...this poem is a song in itself.
Two words I am left with as I finish reading this gem...if only.
Amazing beautiful and inspiring...and so is the poem. :)

A fantastic & fabolous write Frieda. Loved the overall thematic message you've conveyed so poetically well here. Greak work. A unique & unforgettable read. :)
