Where love lives... where love remains

Setting sun in the west

so do birds in the nest

whisper the song

song of love

 

sun hide & call the moon

she walks in with garland

carrying something in the eyes

carrying something in the breath

 

butterflies holding my hand

taking me somewhere

where breezes sing

sing songs of love

 

deep in the valley

where water lives

almighty & smug

 & you on your  throne

 

Delight by my sight

you walked towards me

& I shy

 

met the eyes

met the souls

happy was the moon

garlands she bestow

 

wearing the garlands

wearing the night

we walked

out of this world

out of  sight  

 

hand in hand

we reached

 the world

where love lives

where love remains

Oh you magic lady your coloured sari is swaying in the breezes

Where Breeze Sing.. Sings Song of Love...........where breezeS sing.....I think would be better here? .........................................sing songs of love You On the Throne.....you on your throne? Or.... you sit on your throne .....Smug is a little amusing? Overwhelmed By My Site............................camp site., or my sight.....a slightly odd way of saying it. You Walked Towards Me in Delight I Shy & Numb… In Delight............................................repetition of delight...hmm? Out of the World...........I might say ...out of this world Out of the Site....................................and out of sight (not site) Hand In Hands................no S on the hand= hand in hand We Reached In The World.................drop the 'in'.....just ' the world' Where Love Live..................liveS Where Love Remains Where I Remain… ShePra.. Take away the dots after lines they are not needed. I only put them here because this SITE makes the words run straight after your making it muddled to read. The use of capitals here and there for emphasis is an old fashioned 18th C way of writing things, you can use them at the beginning of the lines but even there they are no longer necessary, just the first word is enough, but as to punctuation, you had better ask the expert Nina for help there, if you feel you need any. Oh just lovely wishing you that world ShePra, from Ann of Norway

Namste, I enjoy Your India,

Namste, I enjoy Your India, Your Ecstasy for I have made it mine, she said smugly. Smiles, ~A "There are very few human beings who receive the truth, complete and staggering, by instant illumination. Most of them acquire it fragment by fragment, on a small scale, by successive developments, cellularly, like a laborious mosaic." Anais Nin

Dear ShePra

I loved this poem, it possesses an almost scriptural beauty. Vivid in its descriptive power, it seduces the heart of the reader to go where he has gone before, and know what he has known before only in the time and place he has been most happy, most in love with the world. An extremely accomplished poem, deserves to be published and read by many. I hope it will be. Respects Dalton.

Dear Ann, This word smug

Dear Ann, This word smug is for water not for flower... as water is itself Smug that Is what I believe as I am myself water... an Aquarius born. Now tell me do you still think of change in word.. Love ShePra

Self-satisfied water

Ann of Norway For me the word smug means the above, self satisfied, and to fit that to water for me, only perhaps, for me, is odd. But as I say its only my own feelings and use of the word that makes it foreign in something beautiful. So forgive me I bow out as I see it has many other meanings than the one experienced by me. Love Ann.

The man was a butterfly and all souls met

Ann of Norway Like the Indian friend of my friend, he was going to tell us of the butterfly, and as all fell silent he stopped and said could someone turn of the tap dripping in the kitchen, and then in the total silence...... the magic mysteriously real and tangible, of his rendition of the life of a butterfly, was so very beautifully expressed in mime that the man was a butterfly and all souls met in the mosaic of its wings, now bodiless and free. Ah YES we humans CAN FLY we too. No? Universal love to you Shepra and all who commented here, Ann.
