Sing Solitude-Play Soltude-Confetti's Song

Hidden away 
between the broken chimes
of church bells 
lies the dream of a man
the waltz of a butterfly
and love for one woman
He carves her name from a star
on a pebble~
burying it deep
where corals sleep

Across the moon 
wishes concieve
from moist salt on his cheek
in the womb of an ocean
ocean so deep,ocean so dark
dark as the night in his soul

Hidden away
between the broken chimes
of church bells
lies the dream of a woman
the soft breeze of a petal 
and love for one man
She paints his smile from a rainbow
holding it high ~
where sunsets splash
in the sky

Across the moon
wishes concieve
in the womb of a desert
desert so steep,desert so dry
dry as  each crack on her lips  

Hidden away 
between the melidious chime
of church bells
lives the love of a man
lives the love of a woman
where oceans meet
where deserts greet
where stars collide
where dewdrops fall
Lashes caress
the dream in their eyes 

Play Solitude...Sing...

Dear sweet lucky Charma-- wow is all I can say-- I read this and re-read it and it echoes (or should I say sings?) beautifully in my mind? I love the story, love the flow, this was just written so beautifully and one I won't forget soon-- thankfully. Thank you for your well wishes-- hugs and kiss the sweet little one for me... this one definitely goes to my faves...

Charma, your poetic flow never ceases to amaze. This is a gorgeous poem and I love how you kept referring back to those images; the church bells, the stars, etc. Write on, sweet dreamer!

I remember when charma was all haiku. Anything to be on the soup. But now, wow. She developed into quite the poetess.
