Uttering ether


I walk on air
fall through clouds
put words in your mouth
and imagine you speak them
with your voice.

With ether, I try to create
a solid path for us,
and you silently nod,
believing I understand
what is in your heart;

but my feet stumble
as my own words echo
off your protective walls.

I am listening for your voice,
feet poking holes in our clouds
and wondering
if I'm simply walking on my own breath.

feet poking holes in our clouds
aware I am simply walking
on my own breath.

HI,
oh, this is lovely. Nice imagery and metaphor:
With ether, I try to create
a solid path for us,
and you silently nod,
believing I understand
what is in your heart; this is very touching, you have captured longing very well indeed. I relate to your words.

Thank you for a very beautiful poem,
Kimibob

However I do love you! Ether .......IMAGINATIONS we are! All of life is a dream and

Oh Lovely,

You are so tenderhearted, there will be no burning as I do not possess the knowledge of how to light a match.
What are the seven elements, then? Tell us in a poem... but not a long one.

Warmly,
Suzanne

I simply cannot let it out in waves in general............I Can not do this please. I will be
in silence dear friend. Thank you so much for your honest love and your very deep heart

Very reflective, Suzanne, and economically written. The ending is outstanding. There’s a piece on a similar theme, by the poet Billy Collins, here.

I have never liked "Crowley" his book of truth is a lie.........."Thoth" or his so called
book of truth which is so evil and nasty


To Ra.............then, and Light!


Love, love, love, love

when those meek eyes first did seem
a love within you wrought
to higher dreams they found
once for the lower mowed
the song to higher ground
