A Moment In Time

Should I search for you through lotuses of gold or climb pyramids of truth and go beyond the self? If I were Ghost of Amdapor, could I possibly un-clock the secret of a shadow bringer's touch? If I were perception at its best would these emerald eyes transmute into the umbra of your light? If these wings of mine were Love stretching further than the ocean blue, could I cover you ? If I were mercy's Angel at deepest hour of need would you be an echo of my living past or the song of our tomorrows child my love? If I were yours and you were mine inside this peaceful lake I call my heart, Would you be rock salt or would you be, water. Dec 9 2023

Should I search for you through lotuses of gold or climb pyramids of truth and go beyond the self? What a profound question to start your poem.. wow, you have asked so many deep and thought provoking questions that this will take time to process, think and answer... brilliant poetry dear Vienna..

Wow so many deeply moving questions here sweet rose, i love the cadence of this and the depth of your heartfelt emotions expressed in such eloquence. I love emerald eyes and your mention of lotus. I wrote a minichu few days ago and mentioned lotus but didnt post yet. This feels like an evocative that comes from a very deep place. That ending is brilliant! A definite fave this is for me. Pleasure reading you. I hope you are feeling a bit better today?
