Sublime

"I have dipped my pen in the sublime, it is my gift to you . . ." Each word a diamond shines Each note a music that rhymes "I have dipped my pen in the sublime, it is my gift to you . . ." So precious, so tender, so pure Filled with love so rare "I have dipped my pen in the sublime, it is my gift to you . . ." A bit of a rainbow, in a grey sky A white dove that can’t fly "I have dipped my pen in the sublime, it is my gift to you . . ." A pink horizon, breaking dawn A deer with a suckling fawn "I have dipped my pen in the sublime, it is my gift to you . . ." The hanging dew drenched berries Snow covered red cherries "I have dipped my pen in the sublime, it is my gift to you . . ." Taste but with your heart open And God willing you’ll touch the sun For I have dipped my pen in the sublime, it is my gift to you . . . By Tahera Mannan 28/06/2011 For Constance’s “ Writing in the Sublime” contest

"Taste but with your heart open and God willing you'll touch the sun..." What an incredible line, Tahera. Such a beautiful poem. I'm still struggling with health issues and am sorry I have missed so much fine work. Your poem deserved a higher placement. Love, Carolyn

tahera, how clever the way you repeated her quote and showed examples of things sublime. I don't know how you rated but from the looks of comments below you did very well. Congratulations to you. I am here with my left arm in a sling. haha. But I am doing ok and feeling hopeful for complete recovery from what caused me to have my surgery! I am getting off here now . Nightie night!
