Contributed by Silent-No-More on Thursday, 8th February 2007 @ 02:59:32 AM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems








We could be delicate, I suppose
(if we wanted to tiptoe around
Each other for the rest of our years)
But I see no point in that.

We have lusted for the rain the whole of our lives
And hidden, already, far too many days, from the sun.

I think we’re done
With that.



There have been gods perched on the edge of our existence
Waiting, near forever, for our eyes to fall upon them.
We have played in the cool quiet of their shadows
But never once dared
To speak their names.

This, too,
Will change.



You have been embedding profundity
(and desire)
Into our conversations for so long now that
I have grown heavy with it.
I am becoming more golden
With each sigh.


My offerings are simple, but eternal.

Our horizon
Knows no shame.



We could be delicate, I suppose
But I see no need for that.

Forever is ours

For we have seen the gods
Reflected in one another's eyes.

Ah, bravo! I'm liking this one a lot. The form's very polished and professional, but what I like most about it is that it is completely subservient to the things you say; it's fully harnessed.

You've always had a good way with the mood which I might call "electrified epiphany", and this is one of your best examples, methinks. Just right. Aye.

Snemmers you are an extraordinary poetess.
You possess such poetic qualities and your flare with a pen is amazing. I'm so sorry, but all I have are mere simple words that don't give your remarkable poem the credit it deserves. The ending is perfect.
Written to perfection as is all your work~
love n hugs,
dreamer

I felt I was on a ladder descending into a fray however upon review and reread I think of this as an amendment to the Vows taken a kind of Bill of Rights where upon consensus additional conditions can be added. For me this is an elegant expression of dismay, disillusionment and the will to change and continue in union.

Bravo, Bravi, Brava!

Peace

Ms No-More,

A very cool, 'lets not beat around the bush any longer' statement. Strong, affirmative, well crafted and oh so readable, for structure and form as well as the hot, ghooey substance. This is why poetry is better than chocolate.

Signed, Your fan
