vision is limited
but the possibilities are endless
The mist whispers the promise of poets
who scribble furiously and endlessly
lines that give meaning to living and dying
The lovers breathe it in
every molecule, a thousand poetry collections
every inhale, a tsunami of emotions
Merging and morphing
blending and believing
strolling through the mist
into a poem, the two are transformed
He swirls through her S’s
and rests on the strength of her K’s
She dances with his T’s
and rocks the curve of his J’s
Thank you for reading and listening. 🎶 Be well. 💗 Michele

Ooh, love that one! Although, my poems are like children to me… I love all of them. I have the privilege of birthing and nurturing them then letting them fly away from me. 💞 I would be honored and delighted. 🙏🏻One request… can it be after this week? I am attending/teaching at a poetry conference in Denver tomorrow-Sunday and don’t want to miss your share. 🤗

Im mystischen Nebel
die Sicht ist eingeschränkt
aber die Möglichkeiten sind endlos
Der Nebel flüstert das Versprechen der Dichter
die wie wild und endlos kritzeln
Linien, die dem Leben und Sterben Sinn geben
Die Liebenden atmen es ein
jedes Molekül, tausend Gedichtsammlungen
jeder Atemzug, ein Tsunami von Emotionen
Verschmelzen und Morphen
mischen und glauben
durch den Nebel spazieren
in ein Gedicht verwandeln sich die beiden
Er wirbelt durch ihre S’s
und ruht auf der Kraft ihrer K’s
Sie tanzt mit seinen Ts
und rockt die Kurve seiner J’s
*
I let the dream
to speak for me
for my own insight
and the world
in which I live

Not sure how I missed your comment. Apologies, Cheryl. How wonderful that you felt transported by my poem and musical selection – I felt the same walking through the mist and then writing about it. 💖 Of course, I love the idea of dancing in a dimly lit club… with someone exciting… bonus! 😁 Thank you. 🙏 Hope your new year’s is off to a fantastic start!

When S’s swirl, the heart begins to sing. When K’s show their strength, love hums the melody. When T’s know how to dance, the soul glides with such ease. When J’s can’t curb their enthusiasm, a heart is exposed, transformed. Just from a stroll, through a lyrical poem! Lovely!
