In Between Starbursts & Sunrise
I stumble in the presence of his grace
( It's never cold here )
He shaped me of black roses blooming
a blue opal energy
& bits of an organic smile, shy
laced with a "You know I hold my heart in your eyes" look
( You might be surprised if when you look inside to find yourself instead you see me )
We sat with our feet hanging of the edge of reason
( If he told me to jump, that he would catch me, I would have )
Innocence,
like wide eyed children in the midst of our summer
left drowning in the Arizona skyline
( It's never cold here )
He shaped me of black roses blooming
a blue opal energy
& bits of an organic smile, shy
laced with a "You know I hold my heart in your eyes" look
( You might be surprised if when you look inside to find yourself instead you see me )
We sat with our feet hanging of the edge of reason
( If he told me to jump, that he would catch me, I would have )
Innocence,
like wide eyed children in the midst of our summer
left drowning in the Arizona skyline

...than usual in these fifteen lines, Kandice. The sometimes breathtaking beauty you give your work is clouded only by its brevity. My continuing hope is that you soon will fill my screen with an epic of the same high quality.

poem, 'the edge of reason'bit and 'children drowning in the Arizona skyline', I love the images you so effortlessly weave Kandice.

I enjoy the almost raw - element to your style, it breathes the intimacy behind your keyboard. x
