Poem
Mind Dance I hear you calling me I feel you on the wind Playing with my hair Grazing my cheek With kiss’s shadow Upon your distant shores Perched on craggy rocks Upon sunlit parched cliffs I receive you I feel the whispers Of the past I hear the moans Of the lost ones The forgotten ones I am here We are here Know me Know us.... For we have not departed We reside in your heart Gazing up I see the fuzzy silhouette Of a man I once knew Sitting in quiet contemplation I recognize the tilt of the head The steadfast gaze The lonely heart calling out Far below Rugged shoreline Sharp massive rock beacons Cascading Down ...down ...down Disappearing Becoming an erotic dance of mist and foam Lovers entwined frolicking effortlessly Their bodies of salt and sea intuiting one another Mesmerizing me with their sacred union High above royal seabirds Appear from their cave dwellings Diving down in unison To join the lover’s dance Their bodies Shining...sleek...untouchable Plunging full force into Undulating clouds of churning sea Seeking food Creatures of land and sea... Let me fly with you My nose is filled with cold briny air My eyelashes kissed with saline tears Taking me back to that moment Dry tall yellow grasses brush against you Your belly hot... hungry Making your way through pulsating relentless heat Your dry breath Your focus Your precision Your hunger I smell the hunt The fight The kill Watching you conquer your prey Providing for your pride With eyes closed I see all of you Oh gracious God of Light and beauty You come to me in my dreams Allowing me to be A humble witness to a All you have created I hear distant water gliding Over weathered stones Natures Music I hear the cawing of the seabirds Rising up Growing fuller One voice together I feel the cheekbones of my ancient ancestor Gently touching closed eyes Feeling the wrinkles of skin Her soul revealed Each scar, wound, Sunrise Kiss and tear Holding her hand is my gift. We walk through transparent sheets of Turquoise rain Smelling the mossy green growth beneath our feet High above where monkeys roam We hear the welcome drops Pelting the hand shaped leaves Falling through the greenery Finding their way to our smiles A forever embrace As we become one My heart expands Susan Lawrence Copyright 2021
