ON FEATHERED WINGS

ON FEATHERED WINGS SuddenlyA strangePeaceful feelingCame to me.Something insideTook flightInto quiet dreamsNo painNo sufferingNo thoughts of whenMy body will betray me again. I moved gracefullyThrough fields of lavenderPurple and blueThe ones I used to knowSo very  long agoTo Roman streetsAncient and newThrough hills and valleysOf the southern Apennines.Under Banyan treesOf the Gallic countryside.Along the coasts of SpainOn the Mediterranean SeaThe shores of Aegean  blue-greenAnd acquamarine. The world was my homeAgain.Innnocence rebornEmbraced this tired soulWeak and wornOnce more.On soft feathered wingsI flewTo places I longed to seeTo who I was then. The warmth of recollectionsWrapped aroundA now older heartThat lingers hereStill.

Languishing

To be there

Again

Oh feathery, feathery, feathery wings.

How lovely lovely lovely as we feel these scenes with you. I am rocked in your thoughts, in lavender so beautifully, beautifully peaceful so full of sensitivities to light and air and colours, so intoxicated in memories bright loveliness, I feel you heart sensing these things, and with it see the same scene, the same seas and porticos, smell the perfumes of flowers and colours, and am made still by your poem, still in my soul, the deepest place in my heart is warmed and like love's dreams soothed, this is truly beautiful my Longobardolino. Truly BEAUTIFUL. The quiet after a storm, so still so evocative of thoughts. Love your Annuccia.
