(Lover's Flight)

I am not blind
But surely I am more than blind,
For I see in your gaze
Glimpses of warmth and laughter,
Sowing future days.

I am not deaf
But am I not more than deaf?
For I hear in your voice
Silken possibilities,
To make the soul rejoice.

And no, I am not dumb
But wish I had no voice,
When my words stumble over familiar terrain
Like a cripple learning to walk again.

For a short time, though
I blossomed in your light,
And sheared the sky on wings of pure delight.

Have sympathy for Homo Imaginatio
Imagining relationships
At end or start,
Tightly coiled between head and heart. [comments] => 6 [counter] => 209 [topic] => 2 [informant] => spike [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 32 [ratings] => 7 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )

The Senses Also Dream

To make the soul rejoice.

And no, I am not dumb

And sheared the sky on wings of pure delight.

Have sympathy for Homo Imaginatio
Imagining relationships

Tightly coiled between head and heart.

Gentle, yet strong. A softness yet the harsh reality of love and life . I find it beautiful to read but touches my heart in understanding ways. June

Oh my spike, this was amazing. And there ya go again
writing all my emotions down on paper. This was nothing
short of magnificent. A cleverly mastered and illustrated
write about a subject most of us are all too familiar with.
(But look at the work it inspires...)

Great job, my friend!

Very good.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

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. ©
