Notes About The Poem

Poem For Whomever

she is tranquillity
yet lava flows in her veins

cut her open and you'll burn

she is Eve's apple
nemesis to patriarchy

one bite and you'll bleed

she is a rainbow
an eagle taming storms

no chains can contain her

she is a pilgrim of passion
composing a trail of moments

inscribed on many a heart

she is beauty personified
but apathetic eyes remain blind

know her and you'll feel the calm

for i see her soul
illuminate through her eyes

so i break open the cocoon
to float like butterflies

ascending higher 

kissing silent stars

smiles beaming like the moon
content in her companionship

Simple Musing
The Silent One

You long for her presence. She's your muse. Silent One February 9, 2020 at 2:28 PM I would not say she is my muse... a friend who has gone onto new pastures, but was a real inspiration.. Thank you Peter..
