sit and listen.
i.
the colors are dark now
a sweet flickering
from soft lighted windowsill candles
glow, off in the distance;
catching my eye just right
it's then-
those dancing twists of light
are heartache perfect
ii.
fingers
absent in mind
tendril twirl
in repeated twirls;
my custom-made afterthought
blinded,
to an automatic action
of such a soothe,
that instigates to create
iii.
a hushed index finger
[pon nosetip]
sit and listen
as breezes blow
of purest creation
an absolute
to write my known heart
in raw and in all it's bold
or maybe a waiting,
a sort of inspired gold
always, it's there.
this poetic needing
compounded I think,
by tonight's silken wafting
O'er these billowy breezes
is nature's ethereal speech
so, my pen begins,
just in time to seize it .

Re: Re. sit and listen.
Ohhh, I like that, RiAN!
"The hands are connected to the heart"... That's absolutely how I feel and what I am constantly trying my best to put forth. I ready a quote on a poet's profile page here that said "It's about being fearless enough to leave a part of your humanity on the page." and "You'll know it when you see it"
Those words stuck me like lightning and I haven't forgotten them since. I strive to try to do that... as terrifying as that fearlessness feels sometimes... hahaha 😂
Thank you for reading and your thoughtful supportive remarks. I'm humbled by your generous RL add and I love seeing you on my page,
Much love and respect,

I was going to recommend this to Rian before I got to the bottom and saw she'd been. This is her kind of writing, a sacrosanct resonance with nature, with the spirit beneath. It speaks to me as well. 💖🎶🙏

It seems you're seeing images & hearing songs no poetess has ever painted. Voices call out to you, straight to your heart, it's strange yet you seem so well acquainted. Lol, ok, I had a little help from ABBA here but it's how your poem made me feel. I'll email you if you want to know more about that.

It's not just that either. The soft lighting you talk of via the candles also reminds me of ABBA's last studio album cover, those lyrics come from. To me, it's uncanny; mind you, most things are after a bottle of Chardonnay, right? 😉

Mmmm... You're speak my language now!
Although I'm more a red wine 🍷 lover.... a good Pinot Noir.. 😋 a yummy Chardonnay is my go to for white wine though.. Mmmm!
Aww, thank you Billy. Even if it is the wine, it's still really nice sentiments. I'm only familiar with their hits like Dancing Queen or Fernando... lol
I'm utterly appreciative 🙏

Re: Re. sit and listen.
Yeah, you can't go wrong with a Merlot, plus there's a soft & fruity red that I like called, Jammy Red Roo, which is predominantly made from 80% Shiraz grape.

Ohhh I love Shiraz!!! 🍷
Some merlot are a bit heady for me and too dry.. A yummy Shiraz is some of my favorite, as well. I'll have to see if I can find that particular kind here, Thank you, Billy... Wait, that's Yellow Tail?... I think? That's a staple in my wine rack. It's a wine that tastes more expensive than it is... lol Love it.

Re: Re. sit and listen.
Yeah, lol, Yellow Tail it is. Didn't know it had reached your shores. Normally wines that light are best served chilled like that of a punch summer wine but luckily the one you mention is a proper wine, so can be served at room temperature. People say it's best to open the bottle an hour before you drink it but how many can wait that long? The poem, ahh yes I will add something more... I hope those inspiring billowy breezes aren't too cold tonight as I've been hearing all about Texas & Ted Cruise or Cruize? Sorry Ted but they are not happy with you!

My Oral,
I love seeing you on my page. I've missed you and I hope you're doing well and being productive.
I see you've written a ton that I need to catch up on! Thank you for the kind words and supportive. To be honest, I wasn't thinking this poem was up to snuff. Maybe I was unusually hard on myself, more than what normally is the case.... lol.
Your words brighten my evening...
I'm appreciative 🙏

I contend it would be an entertaining evening to pour a tumbler with two fingers of scotch and a glass of whatever you are drinking, and sit and listen to you.
