When Down Is Up
When Down Is Up
Is there more
a gladness
to be seen
than the face
that rushes up
to meet a hope
that takes in
all there is
to see?
Is there
nothing more
to life
than feeling this
the joy
that meets the morning
when she’s looking
up at me?
I have seen the rivers,
walked the meadows,
swum the sea,
but there is not
a mountain high
enough
to equal
what I feel
when freely
only she.

Beautiful testament to connection, Turtle.
I love the comparison of such to nature
- tis true indeed.

Thank you......I often study and write about Gorean slave motifs and positions......submission is a very interesting subject and yet how the dominant feels or what is going through the mind of someone in awe of such a thing is often misrepresented or misapprehended.....Much has been written about strength on the submissive side, and I think that honoring someone who is able to meditate in submission is a lost art in some ways.

It is amazing to me that being able to share our lives openly with someone else makes almost anything tolerable. When someone is open and honest and free and able to allow us to be ourselves.....it is a sort of soaring.
