Those Who Would Love Light

She is more than a
tumble of words
is my lady ..
...
Each one of them
flowing or golden
like gems …………
...
A poem
just waiting to
happen ………….
...
Caught in a spiral
suspended in rays
then strained slowly
...
Through stained glass
and
held aloft over alters
...
Dancing
with dust motes
in an arc before falling
...
Like light
refracted and traced
upon a glorious chapter
...
Prismed
and flawless
adored by both
...
Blind men and miners
She is
more than a poem
...
Penned perfect
and patiently poised
just waiting …
...
To be exposed
to be seen
to be loved and be read
…

The idea of poetry as light is quite fascinating. And even more fascinating still is this poem which likens light to poetry waiting to happen, and is so, so much more than a mere tumble of words. An excellent read and a ture joy to ruminate upon. Thanks for sharing. Frederick

[Fay Slimm]

Brilliantly evocative with romantic underlays that reach the heart of those like me who missed this before - -- what could be better than "to be loved and be read."

[Neville]

"...just waiting …
To be exposed
to be seen..."

There. That's where you had me. Those lines hit me and I can't even explain why (Or maybe i'm too shy to) Anyways, loved it. Nice work Neville.

[Neville]

my thanks seems barely sufficient to thank you for the kind visit and encouraging words sonnie .. but they are truly meant & deeply ..

Breathtaking in its content, dazzling in its light and I have seen those dancing dust motes for myself and know the impact they can have. Beautiful work. Looking at what Lorry has said. Yes, he has it right. Smooth dog you. You certainly know how to pen a poem to perfection.

Methinks there will be some brownie points winging their way to the Nevster after this mate, you smooth dog you! 😏
Has she got a sister?
Hope you're looking forward to our five days of Chrimbo mate. 23rd to 28th??? Yeah, right! I can picture the whole of Scotland giving up Hogmonay, it's the only bloomin' thing that keeps us going up here.Still, at least it will be the death knell for tories north of the border... All two of 'em 😆
Keep safe and be well. (hmm! Sounded like a trekkie there)

[Neville]

Just turn left out the train station, walk 8 miles and it's the first house on the right after you pass tree 18,046 😊
If you get lost, just ask where the townie woodies live 😊
