V

A heart that loves too much But can't convey that in a touch A mind that hopes for the best but often breaks thru too many a test Eyes that see eternity and want to share, that all may see the glory that frets to be One with all of us. But other eyes turn to mine with unheeding need Why make a fuss? Over nothing much Let's talk of food, of politics or even gold on these things they're really sold. But ----- forever in me strains to be free Tossing , - - turning my energy surges yearning barely bounded in matter eager to merge again in endless ecstasy with all that IS. Placed 7th

Oh, indeed ... and it is that longing that brings you to this bloom, poetry, perhaps. You have an unusual style of layers and ambiguity, (few things I savor more ... in this craft, at least). Loved it! :-)

Perhaps, I write from an esoteric point, my poetry flows from universal source. It can trigger the DNA truth of those ready to ascend, evolve and move into freer modes. Love always
