O, poet, my poet

my lips tingle as
words like droplets
of pleasure pause
and make haste within
a single breath
falling effortlessly
away from me into
surrounding pools of
silent awe…

you have

amazing cadence here--one can slip in and right through it. and even though your language is "poet's style only" fasion (sophisticated), it rings phonetically and even the average reader could delight in it. reminds me a little of rene char. great poem. gb

Emarie

quite apart from being a fitting tribute to orgami, it´s an awesome write. Playing with oxymorons and paradoxons is one of the things you do best, and it never fails to touch my soul. Regards, Ink
