~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Comparable to the lonely ache, fading, when a tear stings my eye. Grasping the silence, the way glittering stars meet the night. Stirring the flames of reconciliation with laughter and excitement. Rejoicing in the soothing way a heart reflects generosity. Bringing life to the echo, washing away the past with cool raindrops. Playing the music that flows through the soul, erasing the darkness. Sounds of peace mastering the grace that breathes in the quiet. Blessings of light awakening the moments when sun warms the spirit. Whispers and sighs, tracing lips the way a lingering kiss bids its muse. Poetry flows, like rivers of love, when the spirit just knows exact words.

such beauty and depth to your words and your imagery! I particularly liked these two lines: Whispers and sighs, tracing lips the way a lingering kiss bids its muse. Poetry flows, like rivers of love, when the spirit just knows exact words. I agree...when the spirit's involved, poetry flows. Outstanding and flowing piece of poetry, Regina. Have a splendid evening, Sara
