Shielded Beneath Your Tapestry
When you peer so deeply into my heart through your deep blue oceans
Through the waves of red that drift across your lovely haunting gaze
I feel your eyes peeking transparently through my ancient wary soul
I wonder if you're aware how my pulse rages to overflow your rivers
To flood your deepest valleys and rise above your mist-coated peaks
Ascending the rocky hills above sheer cliffs and slippery slopes
Can you see through me across the miles and mountains in between?
Would you create with your artistry the scenery that I can see in fantasy?
Weave me a graphic tapestry to protect the pages of my lonely poetry
Cover me in sketches that bring order to my forest of chaotic anarchy
Collect the scattered bones the past has littered across my barren fields
Bury my forgotten deeds and plant a growing crop of nature's fruitful seeds
Where we will till our verse in the fertile soil of our gifted reaping souls
Through the waves of red that drift across your lovely haunting gaze
I feel your eyes peeking transparently through my ancient wary soul
I wonder if you're aware how my pulse rages to overflow your rivers
To flood your deepest valleys and rise above your mist-coated peaks
Ascending the rocky hills above sheer cliffs and slippery slopes
Can you see through me across the miles and mountains in between?
Would you create with your artistry the scenery that I can see in fantasy?
Weave me a graphic tapestry to protect the pages of my lonely poetry
Cover me in sketches that bring order to my forest of chaotic anarchy
Collect the scattered bones the past has littered across my barren fields
Bury my forgotten deeds and plant a growing crop of nature's fruitful seeds
Where we will till our verse in the fertile soil of our gifted reaping souls

Thank you for the very generous comment Lily! Glad you enjoyed the environmental passion... I was particularly inspired while writing this poem and the imagery was there for me to see...

From heart to heart flows the wisdom of the soul
As minds cannot fathom what they cannot control
So let nature lead the way down less travelled paths
To discover all the wonders of passions aftermaths
Oh Bren, I see I'm going to have to start a new poem...
The muse never sleeps!
Thanks for commenting Crim!

How exquisitely you have spun this silk tapestry of the arts! A beautiful landscape painted in the ink of poetry and the pencil sketches of creativity. Gorgeous imagery and sensually voiced JJ! H

JJ, thank you for writing this.. My beliefs are.. if we don't leave behind the chaos of the past. Our future cannot shine as brightly as it is meant. Something's in life are unforgivable. However, that is between you and destiny. I truly believe you have written here something you might already have the answer. You are a gift to read..

JJ, I have not the words to tell you how incredibly beautiful this is. To have such words written with her in mind, a woman would be very blessed indeed...gorgeous, JJ, gorgeous. I'm listing this one so I can read it over and over. :)

Thank you for such a kind comment Willow!
She is blessed but I don't know if she has read this poem or the other 3 I have written for her. If she has she is keeping it a secret...
But I appreciate you and others who do let me know!
