Guest guest Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 --- anabebe57 <anabebe57 a écrit : Slowly, e'er so slowly the music begins crescendos a starry dark night into morning's good grace, a restless blinding world is healed in deep slumber, and if my mind be refreshed in a cool cool river God's love e'er flowing, I shall walk with Thee, my Lord, closer to the One I Love, and if my eyes and ears be open in the Aum of Life, I shall be wrapped in the arms of my Beloved, my morning eyes e'er shining in the light of an e'er Spiritual Fire and I, a flame, shall dance and if the winds change my direction my glow be not diminished, be not forsaken, for I have made peace with the only world I e'er see, my solitary life, filled with Thee, I awaken this side of Paradise, a painting not quite finished with all the colours this Dream of Life gathers into my poet hands, into my still-beating heart, blossoming. LAKE ERIE DID NOT FREEZE THIS YEAR Mother nature shakes the last ice crystals, shimmering in her awakening body,lightly starched, blue-aproned ....and I walk out into my garden, exactly as overhead an empty grey sky gives wings to Wild Geese, and ancient patterned " V " , I think for memory's sake, for victory over time, over matter in beginnings and endings, held closely in the cold hands of daylight today, April lst, 2006, in my little corner of the world on the shores of Lake Erie. The forsythia are blossoming, the bluebells open their eyes, and the violet crocus bends with the night rain, the star magnolia is ready to burst free, into a perfect white, into a blush of pink, its center, morning abounds with birdsong, calling in soft feathers for Lovers, hastening tiny blue eggshells, gathering into and soon breaking into another lusty song.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 LAKE ERIE DID NOT FREEZE THIS YEAR Mother nature shakes the last ice crystals, shimmering in her awakening body,lightly starched, blue-aproned ....and I walk out into my garden, exactly as overhead an empty grey sky gives wings to Wild Geese, and ancient patterned " V " , I think for memory's sake, for victory over time, over matter in beginnings and endings, held closely in the cold hands of daylight today, April lst, 2006, in my little corner of the world on the shores of Lake Erie. The forsythia are blossoming, the bluebells open their eyes, and the violet crocus bends with the night rain, the star magnolia is ready to burst free, into a perfect white, into a blush of pink, its center, morning abounds with birdsong, calling in soft feathers for Lovers, hastening tiny blue eggshells, gathering into and soon breaking into another lusty song. ~~~~~~~~ The whole poem is good, but that first stanza is magnificent. It reminds me of one of my favorite poets, Mary Oliver. Actually, that is an understatement. She's my favorite poet. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
