Blue Pastures

Missing image
I will forever be lost in this moment

Pulled in by the flavour, by the warm scent of the sand
No need to walk by each other's side anymore
Our minds and souls have touched
Like the sea and the coast

Once you're in, you're in

So peaceful, this walk with you
Holding on to thoughts and memories of old
Lapping water sparks a desire to caress
One hand on top of another

Still breathing in the blue pastures

Slowly the sun begins to rise
And a new day comes round for us
There is nothing more beautiful
Than knowing, yet not knowing, who I am

When I'm with you

Just when I thought I was free
I got pulled in again
By the aroma of your presence
No voice but yours can lay me down

I will be forever lost in this moment with you...

    I have to agree with windssong's comment, I would be running down the halls of AP also, singing it's praises lol. It was an amazing poem. There were quite a few very good poems in this contest, but this one takes your breath away with the beauty of the metaphors and the overall gentle tone of the poem, it was excellent

    Beautiful. The emotions, the imagery, the love...absolutely amazing. And the picture, her staring off into the water, fits perfectly with the poem. Loved it, and keep it up!

    Wow, that was one fantastic comment! It gives a great feeling when someone praises one of my pieces. And you have made me smile to no end with what you said. Thank you so very much!

    It worries me when I find pieces of this magnatude with so few comments. I want to run through the halls of AP with a megaphone yelling for them to wake up and come read this work of art. I've seen love displayed so many ways here on Ap but I think this one is the best by far. It is subtle and gentle with out all the frills and ceremony. A slice of Perfection.

    Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... So beautiful!!! I'm glad I didn't read this before entering otherwise I would have just given up and not started period... j/k, I would have done it anyway!

    I just love the imagery! I feel like I'm right there with you, slurping away at my soda and earning angry glances from Daddy Michael as he encourages me to "run along and play" while "Mammy and Daddy have special time". Hehehehehe... Don't worry! I'm sure this lovely little scene will play out eventually!!! How could it not?

    Although, I was surprised to read that it hadn't happened, since every word sounds so real... Great job, Mammy, and keep it up!!! *sets up cheerleading section* HUGGLES!!!

    So peaceful, this walk with you
    Holding on to thoughts and memories of old
    Lapping water sparks a desire to caress
    One hand on top of another

    Though I am no fan of Jimmy Buffet's by any stretch, I can appreciate sincere words and genuine emotion! Excellent write, and keep up the good work!
