^^ Love this, Mandrake. May I? ....

.
silhouettes
.

the universal darkness
filters through the light

dimly lit shapes
(shadows still)
emerge
merge

become
the visual

create
the reality
that we view

nothing exists
without the light

the light exists not
without the darkness
.

LET ME DREAM
Posted: 7/1/2007 7:12:45 AM
While I lay in my bed of green,
Staring at the heavens pristene,
I began to dream, a day dream,
and drift, drift, drift.

I drifted, in and out,
Until I heard a familiar shout,
she said, "get off yer a*s,
get up and cut the grass!"

Let me dream, let me dream!

LET ME DREAM
Posted: 7/1/2007 9:21:45 AM
Draconian Empire,
now burning, set afire,
now just embers
in the snow.

Dragons smile,
rejoicing a while,
on the death of
evil.

A Good Memory
Posted: 7/1/2007 9:30:32 AM
I thought of you last night
… and I missed you
Your smell ~ your look
~ Your touch ~

I let the memories linger
As they were somehow a comfort
To let my mind wander
To a place that was once good

We shared many memories
That today are “ok”
For I am grateful for the “us”
That once was

I could have picked up the phone
… but I didn’t
I was happy with just the memory
Knowing I couldn’t actually “go back”
To the past we once shared
~ together ~

I missed you last night
But I awoke with a smile
Knowing I let you travel my thoughts
But that I am now back in the present

The path
Posted: 7/1/2007 10:09:21 AM
Born in Spain
or maybe Africa, Quebec?
Carrying my possessions in
a sling tossed on my back
Life simple, days not long,
singing, moving, keeping on
Walking on the path less known
concsiously observing
as I made it my own
Did you recognize me there
by the flowers intertwined in my hair
or was it your deep laughter
I heard
that reminded me of who we
once were
soul members of a family
once complete
sent into the world to learn...
to teach
standing strong so far away
but distance, time
neither mean much
today
coming together over miles
home again
with love, with smiles

THE HIPPY
Posted: 7/1/2007 10:28:26 AM
Backpacking, hitching a ride,
going anywhere and everywhere,
sharing, caring, each to the other,
bathe naked and never stare.

Natural in nature, souls connect,
creating dreams, memories
in a lifetime, no regrets,
love, as free as the winds,
forever flowing, growing,
changing, with each step,
each journey, a new chapter,
formed of memories together.

As free as the winds,
drifting to ground,
soul connections
maybe unwound
trusting that faith will
give me strength
knowledge, laughter
to think in new ways
weightless all movements
freedom...
beliefs abound
would these have been found
on the path
well traveled
no, only in the seeking
of untrodden ground

For you dear Mandrake ~ my wonderful friend

Ahhh ~ my dear friend
far across the seas ~
The bond that we share ...
such comfort and ease

I won't say good bye ~
though for now we must part
You're a part of my life ~
I'll keep tucked in my heart

Be safe in your journeys ~
You'll be in my prayers
Be happy, be free ~
Know I'll always care

Take Care ~ Keep that Faith ... I'll be here when you return

~ Soberkitty ~

and thank you "Beethoven" ~ yes ... you probably "know" about this particular poem

Back for a bit
so thought I would sit,
and write a little,
just to amuse myself.

So many newbies,
trying their hand,
writing some bits
in poetry land.

hey folks, feel free to come out and play for a while.

The wind whispered
through trees,
caressing with
it's gentle breeze,
softly whistling,
in crowns
glistening,
from the early
morning dew,
sparkling droplets
of heavens
gold.

Pandora, Pandora
open your box,
release your plague
let down your locks,
drop your gown,
expose the lust
that haunts you,
give your trust,
while on your knees,
honor your god,
take every drop
from the rod,
consume me,
enslave my desire
I am yours
forever.

i knew a lovers touch once....
well, to be honest, quite a few
but thats beside tha point,
for each day my innocence begins anew

and lust that once was will be again you see
for every night i dream my dreams
that roam tha earth and call you to me
and theres nothing that you can do

to escape tha web of passion and pleasure
that i in my dreams, wrap around you
enticing, bewitching, and always leave you yearing
theres no escaping no matter what you do

for i have carnal knowlege of you
and i know where your innocence begins
and i will reach out with fantasies that i find within
i wont stop till flesh is weak and our strenght ends...........

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ooooh, baby, baby...are you sure ya wanna be in my dreams

Window to my left,
is yesterday blue,
Window to my right,
is tomorrow red,
just here in the present,
think I'll stay in bed.

WINDOWS
Posted: 7/21/2007 4:50:15 AM
Visions, appearing
on frosted glass,
writing names of
those who pass.

Faces etched
on window panes,
washed away
by summer rains.

In that moment,
I felt them near,
in that window
from yesteryear.

THE RIVER
Posted: 7/21/2007 5:22:38 AM
Drink of me,
I am the river
of your blood,
by my banks,
is the healing mud,
my waters baptise,
with the sign
of the cross,
be not afraid,
feel no loss,
let your spirit
be free.

- THE WIND -

Racing along on unseen highways
Across the water, land, and skyways
Moving the storms and clouds of rain
Buffeting cold or snow white plain

Cooling the tropics in reprieve
Bringing the hurricane in full seeth
Lifting the birds to soar on high
Powering ships on blue world lie

Cooling the hot and chilling the cold
Factors by wind the weatherman told
Lifting the kite or aeroplane
Sweeping the sands or grassy plain

Wind is eternal, moving free
Working the tides of every sea
Bringer or life and also death
Here's to the wind, the Earth's sweet breath!

Perspectives: (his and hers)



He knew the chemistry - felt the spark
Bet his heart on more than a lark;
Not her first, she knew it too
If meant to be, what could she do?


She will wait of course
He is not her first either
Has believed and was tricked before
Right now he has my friendship and trust





The rest of this will follow as it progress .... and inspiration comes

PERSPECTIVES (HIS AND HER)

PART II


She was easy to love - said so herself,
But no love in return - her heart on a shelf;
He wanted to give her the moon - even Mars,
She was content just staring at stars.


Heart, yes I guess she has one
Hiding, surrounded by moth balls
and wrapped in colourful silken tissues
Afraid to air it out and seeing it falling apart
