[hometext] => I would love feedback, but I do prefer honesty to niceness.
[bodytext] => she was chipmunk pretty, lily-blossom cute, when I saw her that day, the sunlight falling, falling around her face, dripping off of her hair, and mixing with her aura, gentle velvet-blue… …she was beyond knowing, deeper than my deepest dreams of her, higher than my highest hopes… later, after splashing like a seal in the cool white waters, she smiled at me, her hair dripping wet, once again… …and there was something… …something… …so nostalgic, so familiar about her, about that moment… we danced together, in dizzy circles on the tilt-a-whirl, closer, closer, never close enough… …afraid of closeness, more afraid to part… …and that night, back home again, in the city, her eyes twinkled with the star-drenched sky… …so familiar, so deep, her eyes… …oh, peace! remember me as I remember you… ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ Your face, so lovely Is covered now with cold earth, Crumbled and scattered Where you lie in perpetual slumber – -it your rest sweet, Or a thing to be feared? Is it sadness, Is it angry- Am I angry? And why, But if – But because you let go, Because you left When you had so much Left to do... ...when I had so much Left to tell you. ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ When you… …when she walked Down into the water, There was a sadness, and a calm, As she sank beneath the pounding waves, Certain it was her destiny, And she did not struggle, Did not cry out… …only a single tear trickled down her cheek… And I called out her name… “…Peace! Peace! Soft blue, velvet Peace…” …but she could not, Or would not Turn around… …only kept walking Deeper into the sea While I watched in anguish, And wondered-knew Why.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
