Array ( [sid] => 39915 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => like talking to a shadow [time] => 2004-03-23 13:33:04 [hometext] => those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night. ~edgar allan poe [bodytext] =>



























it was like listening to mountains grow,
i spoke so softly only a leaf could hear me,
deep in solemn hour of midnight,
breathing sweet thoughts of neverwhere,
counting time by months and years,
breathe of tears; yesteryears,

creativity and emotions quite clear,
uninhibited allowing natural expression,
quenched by nights shining moon, i hear,
hearts and minds remaining pure,
validating recognition of feelings,
natures dance of perfect harmony,

intoxicating breaths inhaling sweetest air,
of consciousness in freedoms pure delight,
essence of loves purity igniting asteroids aflame,
refreshing starlight balancing earthly duality,
as when again embraced in dreams,
honoring of ones original nature,

freeing egos sense of security,
songs of natures sweet melody,
consuming rapture in momental silence,
pure essence of freedom in the wind,
perception and awareness finely caressed,
earths divine wisdom being expressed,

listening to these mountains grow,
whispering so softly only a leaf could hear me,
deeply in solemn hour of midnight,
breathing sweet thoughts of neverwhere,
breathe of life, counting time by sighs,
breathing roses; now aware.

A very serene write, a quiet journey of the soul, observing what is often overlooked.

Your words have reached my heart and soul,

So peaceful Nessa, like hearing the corn grow. When I left my heart in the mountains of Colorado and moved to Illiois....was like another time for me......but I looked an found their beauty too! I could hear the corn grow. But someday, I'm going home back to the mountains and listen to them grow again.
Exquiite Delight! Made me home sick
I haven't felt that way in 25 years!
Very touching poem indeed
love you
consue

whispering so softly only a leaf could hear me,
deeply in solemn hour of midnight,
breathing sweet thoughts of neverwhere,

This was excellent i love that line listening to these mountains grow, great work.

Only you, Nessa, could so quietly yet powerfully emote these feelings and thoughts. You are truly the 'Lady' of YPDC.

Many hugs,
Rita

Wow!! I am so very humbled. I think I will now reach into my ear with an extremely white hot acetylene torch and sear what I thought was a mind that could possibly transfer thought into words. I now know better. Perhaps I would be better suited as a dog slave lapping at your feet hoping for a crumb of genius to fall my way. It's nice to be in the same universe as thou.
