Invitation

I am The Now Now and Now Catch me Witness the fireworks erupt In a multitude of shooting stars I see you tighten your grip on that wine glass Drop it Hear it shatter I am that. Lover, I sprang from the earth as the Flower of the forest My roots run wild, above and below Winding its way down the earth, up the sun Entangled in and out of a billion galaxies I am the flower that bloomed. I am the The Now Now and Now , Bend and touch the ground Let the sand caress your wayward hand Let the waves splash over your wandering feet Be here with me I am The Now Now and Now This celebration is imperfect without you Hear me speak For i am the language, the poet and the poem. Look no further, Attempt not to read between the lines For this is no metaphor For today i have come undone I am The Now Now and Now Allow me to be kissed When your lips open and close open and close Listen to the chiming of my anklet as i dance As my feet touches the ground to your beating heart. Jasmine dances to the music of the wind still rooted This is that dance.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

But, for the mean time, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like.
