The whole time I was reading this I kept thinking " To see the world through the eyes of a child is magical. Everything is fresh, new, alive and exciting. It also reminds me of a Bible verse. "You must become as a little child."
Your poem is magical,I keep thinking that "that one particle that is only you" is innocence When we perceive the world through innocence, then there is no motive, no reasoning, it just is. (pure and simple magic) I don't know if I'm making sense, What I'm trying to say is so hard to put into words or it may simply be that I just don't know the right words or form to say what I want to say
I know my review is turning into a book but you have touched a part of me ( through your poem )that has been yearning to be free for so long. Something I have been trying to say but have been unable to put into words, yet you have captured that elusive thought so well.
Your poem has touched me and reached the parts of my thoughts and being that I thought were untouchable.
And you have presented it so beautifully. What more can I say than ,this is as near perfection as we as imperfect humans can attain.
Norma sent this to me, and I am so glad she did! I have been thinking of this same theme of late, but you capture it so much more beautifully. The picture just makes this perfect -- embrace the dragon that eats you! ;)

this is very stimulating and provocative poem...deserves close and contemplative reading for the utmost enjoyment, my dear....das Bild ist erschreckend...oh hoffentlich kann ich einschlafen. lol luv. lara.
"Never murder magic"...loved that line....there are a few who sit and watch and are amazed at what they see .........but most, they want to know how?...and start thinking...and lose the moment.....the truth of what life really is are in those moments, I believe so......
so thank you for writing such a beautiful poem...it was magical ;-)
"Never murder magic"--in these three words you've captured the whole vision of this poem, I think. It makes me reflect on why kids are so full of this magic, and how it's so easy to take away (this innocence, this lust for life/joie de vivre) to make us bitter old fools, unable to change our hearts or mindsets.
I often find myself childlike in many ways; yes, I'll grab flailing petals caught by the wind, skip, and laugh, just because... why not, and life is too frail and beautiful not to.
A wise poem, and your accompanying sand sculpture rocks too =)

That piece of Sand Art is fantastic as is this poem silvia. Yes stuff understanding it, just live it and love it, one day at a time, is my mantra. Funnily enough my dearly departed hubby used to do land art on the beach and leave it there for people to find or not, he didn't work with sand too much, more found objects and stones, because he wanted his art to stay just a little while.
Journey through life..........so many true and very wise beautiful words.....
and the end, for me, the essence of who we are.............a soul........and the
centre of creation.
Very powerful piece............and you are so wise to have written it!
there's so much depth to this...misguided adult need for knowledge which rarely offers more than fractured wisdom... my favoutite part.. it reminds me of einstein's quote.... imagination is more important than knowledge
ACHTUNG! Fair warning!!!!!!
Sorry, folks ....
I tried. I really did ....to start spending time here, to start writing and reading here again ... But I simply couldnt bring back the old spirit o.. more..
