The Colour of the Breeze

"The Colour of the Breeze" Star Jasmine, orange blossom, pine leaves, and floating cymbidium dipping oars into purple and white Agapanthus, drip off a lid on that day exotic Nile lilies with lips of mead drip potency singing only the sweetest memories the tiger lilies roar, in silence, cut up, bittersweet, they are sitting torn fresh in the pew, in front of me watching and waiting for what? gravity in the moment just, being colour me cryptic Agapanthas purr through closed jade mysteries on that day indigo blue ... a date with destiny, a winsome crew each with their secrets renewed, knew they try to sing hymns whispering, thinking I could never do this such singing ridiculous they try to sing hymns whispering, thinking I am not near them but I am all the colours miraculous surrounding them speaking in different tongues I lean into them, listening leaves floating like notes to remember found in the colour of the breeze lifting potent memories freedom then, nothing stopping me (Ladylabyrinth / 2022) klb, mlb gvlm "Serpentskirt" / Cocteau Twins https://youtu.be/ZkaDFYVOUDs "Whales Tails"/ Cocteau Twins https://youtu.be/0LVyIJsigXU "Bluebell Knoll" / Cocteau Twins https://youtu.be/ZpqaNjtaU6o Requiem, Tractus (Johannes Ockeghem) - Miroslav Venhoda; Prager Madrigalisten 1966 https://youtu.be/AnYOWMrrkIU Requiem Mass.

"For some, poetry is nothing more than nonsense. How sad. For others, it is the imagination let loose on a playground, activated in high gear, on fire, in flight, wild. It is every emotion. It is blood. It is tears. It is joy. It is hope. For some, poetry is freedom."
