Matthew Anish Poet Lyric

Purple

As clouds gather 
in 
  the 
     evening
     we are 
           moved 
  to 
  speak 
  of 
     the dance
    Can't you see
              that the 
                   reality 
      which so 
             motivated you
  has been
             swept 
                    away 
       by the four 
  winds
       let us breath in 
  the pure air of peace
  It's a long trip 
    up the mountain

Joe Maverick October 1, 2010 at 2:56 PM have enjoyed this, it speaks to me of the eternal, within the worlds fluid elements, and i think you have much more to give.

Connie Marcum Wong September 23, 2010 at 2:32 PM A really lovely poem Matthew. I agree with Nikko here. Even your title hints that this gem might contain a more spiritual message being that the color purple is the color of the crown chakra and of the highest vibration. Yes, I do live in Hawaii and have for the past 30 years. I love the Big Apple. I think our nickname is the Melting Pot. Thanks for your comments. Aloha, Connie
