~silent song~
brittle thoughts
inked out on bone china
so delicate a whisper
barely audible
to the human soul
silently I sing my song
hidden are the mysteries
from a mind that searches
eyes that have gone gray
glazed over and now blind
I reach to you for answers
you pull away
for self preservation
the spirits are stirred
a whirlwind of discontent
my wilted petals
tossed into the eye of the storm
with hopes to bring a sweet aroma
lingers on the wind my tender incantation
can you feel me as I enter on quiet feet?
peacefully and prosperously
no ill intent in mind
let me gently caress
your weary soul
as I cradle you in my bosom
my candle lit for you
should you come in the night
I heed the warnings
of the powers that be
don't trouble the waters lovely soul
be calm and be well

Re. ~silent song~
Ah. such wonderment and beauty within the lines of this poem.
The search for answers, somehow elusively slips away.
Please keep searching, the answers you need will soon show
themselves. This poem touched me big time, Brenda.

A very moving and tender write Crim.
hidden are the mysteries
from a mind that searches
eyes that have gone gray
glazed over and now blind
This is something I'm feeling a little more each day if not yet going blind. Must be getting old....

Warmth reaches to the depths of the soul now turn up the volume of your song so the one you sing silently can hear...

Oh goodness... Where to start?
The first 2 lines knocked me clean out..
the silence. the solitude in that
would haunt anyone. I relate so strongly I'm thinking..huh? You know...for me it holds it & we all can learn to live alone by the second. You had me tightly bound and attentive imediately (im so grateful) in the third..
Thank you Crim
They rock!

This was a very interesting
write Brenda and felt on a
lot of levels as I think that
we connect on a deep wave
length in a lot of aspects.
the spirits are stirred
a whirlwind of discontent
my wilted petals
tossed into the eye of the storm
with hopes to bring a sweet aroma
The first stanza that I copy/pasted
above really stuck-out to me, as I
feel them a lot stirring within me also.

Breathtakingly beautiful, dear Crim!
Made me think of 'Bridge over Troubled Water'
You left me a bit speechless, so I'll leave it at that...
Love, Duende

sensational lyrics hushed in the vibrating air, Crim.
I hear it's peaceful in the eye of the storm -
haven't found it yet...

I relax and lay back
into your beautiful words
I allow myself to be carried
onwards so that I might rest
a while in your poetry
your words make us one
and help me to carry on
I thank you for your skill
for your art and your beauty
it is with that, that I know
I will never be alone again
I need not fear the dark
of the knife monsters
or of those with flaming wings
your words make me invisible
your words protect me
your words keep me safe
I can only thank you
for writing them
:-)
