Raising the Dead

Velvet soft, like rose petals, these thoughts Free falling like rain drops unto the thirsty earth Rivulets break cobwebs washing dust prints away Seeping through a wall of steel formed by time Will they raise the dead; roll the stone away? ~*~

You find very appropriate words to describe gentle feelings, anchored to nature

Very detailed images in this poem... I especially liked the reference to the Resurrection in the last line. Elegant descriptions of something I (for some reason) thought was going to be creepy. Perhaps I've seen too many horror films and so when I read "raising the dead" my mind goes elsewhere... lol.
