Ameya




    I wish my thoughts were clear and warm
         as AMEYA drowns in herself again-
              embellished in solemn pulsation,
                   glorifying November with tears of ‘Amen’.



                    The LILY cracks and carves a path of
              liberty for tragic petals,
         whose wings of pollen scatter shores
    of sterile prints I dreamt of last.



    This fleece of pain she shed and stained
         is buried ‘mong layers of words,
              beneath the rope of a frequent caller-
                   ‘neath AMEYA’s gallows bird.  









~Empathy-eyes

So this is for you Meg, have a great birthday I wish that I could write something cheerful- but i'm sure you know me by now.

    Applaud

    This beautiful poetry is like a haunting song of Loreena McKensitt, evocative and tugging at the emotions like a dark drawstring, the angels in heaven itself do sing. Excellent work, Kate, keep writing, you are wonderful.
    This is well worthy of my humble earthly applause.
    Georges.
