Wind Washed & Flying

Wind Washed & Flying

A Poem by Neville
"

when the hard man wants to be gentle.. he can be very gentle

"

Wind Washed & Flying

 

Why not place a finger against the knot

Your lips make when you kiss goodbye

Then release your hair and just listen

To all those perfect whispers fly

 

What is more important tho these

Much loved scented finger tips of yours

And perfumed much licked lips

Might just as well a single salty sigh

For freedom yet

 

Wait though

Much like the haunted cry of gulls

Neath rocky crags and outposts

Wind washed these eyes and ears of mine do

Catch you flying

 

Cloud raped and ragged

Dodging meteorites and showers

I swear there is no ecstasy like ours

Taken swiftly pon regal lawns

More slowly on those green glades and truly

I am wondering how I missed this one first time round. I thought I had read everything you've posted since I've been here. These lines are as soft and delicate as a whisper of breeze on warm skin. Am I surprised at such tenderness? No I am not. That 'ardness you keep going on about, well you do keep going on about it, and yet this reader does not feel it, sense it or see it. I just hope you shared these words with this love of yours. That is a poem to die for if ever there was one.

thank you kindly... N
Neville, this is sensitive, sweet, endearing. Passionate and loving. When a hard man cracks open and the softness inside floods out. Bravo. A lot of hard men. Put on the act of being unemotional and scary. When deep down they are soft as kittens.

can't do two things at once.. falling down and getting up simultaneously are impossible... :)
Your words speak to me of a love as free as the air, as swift as the rushes of the wind, as languorous as the midsummer rain, as haunting as the squawk of the sea gulls at dusk. Your reader’s imagination soars. That’s just great poetry, my friend.

How wonderful would it be if the finger sigh caught on to be the international symbol of love no more. Think of all those bitter words of recrimination would silently pass by like a breeze. Now, if only we could come up with a silent sigh for door slams, I would be golden :)
It is of no comfort to anyone, but your words and the readers recognition of them at least gives us the hope of thinking "well, at least it isnt just me" :)
I know these words and the feelings they bring so well that I should have a season ticket for them.
Really like how you capture the sentiment, like thoughts blowing in the wind.

Each and every line a special thought and more than beautiful. A play of words even the Bard would envy. Real live poetry here, Neville.
