Walking across water

 

 

 

 

 

You are a mortal with an immortal's soul

 

listening...        

 

 

to the platonic voices of reasoning

 

owning a conscience that filled you with clarity  

 

confident hands that divided the seasons

 

composing...       

 

words of symmetry and curiosity

 

revealing your awesome beauty and mystery    

 

your two feet barely touched the dirt of the earth

 

you preferred...       

 

to walk across water or walking on air

 

gravity seemed to move your energy elsewhere  

 

the cosmos gifted you with a gratis life

 

you knew not...       

 

how lucky you were and how lucky you was

 

to be weightless and do whatever just because

This reminds me of someone so close to heart and then so out of reach. Almost like a lover never touched. Of course I relate everything to my life because I'm selfish that way lol... but honestly it touched that part of me, that waits on the other side.. with arms wrapped around my knees and simply silent...xo "breathe me"... sigh

[Muse]

I was moved writing this...the pic of the bridge...felt like an invitation to cross over.

[Lily Mae]

That's what I loved about it. The clarity is there to cross and the fog doesn't seem to be foreboding but more inviting.. like it's just mean't to be..

[Lily Mae]

Plus up above in the clouds the darkended area looks like two lovers..x

[Muse]

I know where your mind it sweetie...I hope he will breathe the same air as you someday.

how beautiful this poem and music lift my thoughts ..i am a Christian man and thought immediately of the only God/man, Jesus ... but of course one can see so much romance, respect and love in this ...well it is just beautiful if i may say so...universal, inspiring and delicious

Muse you are not only a true friend, however one of my favorite writers on WC. This was simply one classic poetry, which takes you in a peaceful world. Simply amazing!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

nothing like "doing whatever just because"

i am so glad this poem revisited me...we had another cup of coffee and chatted about how talented you are, Muse.

[Muse]

I plan on "doing whatever just because" this weekend. lol
Your compliment was so sweet. Thank you Jacob.

[Lyn Anderson]

Wow. This one just left me all goosebumpy, and teary. I immediately thought of someone special to me who died much too young ... In the faves. Thanks for the memory.

Now you see...I'm not ALWAYS dark and morbid. I do have a soft side. Thank you, I hope it lifted you as much as it did I while writing it.

Oh, Muse, that is a masterpiece! Beautifully conceived and crafted, a true piece of art. The poet you were paying tribute to must have felt very honored. If I could rate it (which doesn't seem possible), I would give this poem a 100. And your graphic complements your words perfectly.

[Muse]

thank you, I turned my ratings off for the most part, can't say why. But I am glad you enjoyed it.

[Rossen]

Unbearable lightness of being.
Your words are lovely and intoxicating...

This is beautiful and refreshing. The music definitely helps. You are a true artist, Muse! Stay true to it.

You expressed the traits of someone who's transcending to a higher level of enlightenment.
