the learning of you.

we share the quiet words

delicately circling, testing the limits

of our attuned frequencies,

while conversing

in the broken syllables

afforded to those who hold

hidden silences behind unshuttered eyes.

our self-effacing sentences

and their softly spoken images,

weaving comfortingly 'round our fingers,

offer the knowledge in clarion cries

(if we pause just to listen for them)

...that here lies a kindred soul

It is so beautiful when we meet someone we connect with naturally, like we have known them for some time. I love the quiet words and testing limits, it is amazing to me. No drug could ever replace such meetings of kindred souls. I loved the use of words here, how you played with them and carefully placed them to have the best meaning. Very good poem, shows your talent.

Excellent writing...I suppose everyone can form their own meanings and that is a good thing.
Extremely well thought out and composed.

This has a feel of Henry James about it. Tis gentle, subtle, intriguing, intelligent and tautly executed.

Oh why is it easy to read those words..though they never are
have you heard the song ..How deep is your love,ha ha,and I will say how deep are your words
Its a lovers almost first words and they dont know how to say it or express what they feel
so they use quiet words,and circle around sentences,testing the limits
of their so close frequencies..its the use of broken words behind shaking eyes
images comes and goes..the learning of you..my kindred soul..so she must say
and I say this is a great write..as usual..
lovely write..
