Here I Am

Here I am Queen
Of things unperceived 
My skin shimmers
with an iridescent sheen 
The sun shines
crystalizing me 

I slow down my motions
Meditating in silence
Opening up my emotions
Creating peace and quiet

I ponder my existence
My relative subsistence 
Soaking up the earth
Feeling gravities resistance
Restraining my body from floating forth

I begin my ascension
Leaving the 3rd dimension
Entering unknown realms
Exploring without apprehension
Releasing my spirit from its physical state
My shape is insubstantial 
I’ve opened an invisible gate

Here I am Queen 
Of things I perceive 
My consciousness
My spirit, my soul
Is what makes me whole 

Here I am ethereal
My body doesn’t exist
Made up of cosmic material
I will infinitely persist

Rachel,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
