twin

He hears and sees, as I meander through
this world that needs be taken day by day.
For cognisance, he has the perfect view -
my deepest thoughts, to him, are on display.

He shadow escorts me throughout the dreams
where I am Home - it's both surreal and real -
where unconditional love feeds me, it seems.
I wake to find I have a new found zeal.

Conflicting the accepted paradigm
of seperate single conscience, seperate soul,
I know that part of his is part of mine
and, while I am awake, I am not whole.

Favorite Poets: Favourite poets? So many, so varied. I like particular songs, not necessarily the singer... and the same goes for poetry. I can honestly say though, that Alfred Noyes' The Highwayman was what inspired my love of poetry - my mother began reading it to me when I was still a baby, and it became my favourite bedtime story

Beautifully written

poem about the shared love of created and creator. One who made us almost like gods with the power to create new life.

lovely!

As usual dear Judy.
I liked the "sshadow escorts" expression. (New for me)
And I'd capitalize 'he' and 'his', (just my humble opinion)

Thank you for sharing dear.

thanks Rula

I purposely didn't capitalise 'he / his'....
I didn't want to necessarily tie the subject to a deity, hoping it could be read in other ways as well

I actually took it to mean a

I actually took it to mean a missing sibling. Gone, but for ever with you.
But then, I do take things rather literally at times :-) Jxx
