Perhaps We are Vines......... a "Trace and Julie" collaboration

a poem written about the writing of two poets collaborating

Perhaps we are vines

gently intertwined

strong, yet vulnerable

as we nurture tiny buds of loveliness

hearts etched with sunlight…

 

Like a summer morning

dew kissed and glistening

diamond light

           melting

                  into ribbons of delight…

 

Wrapping us in poetic ecstasy

 

Leaves quiver,

flowers bloom

and seasons change…

 

                 We have changed

                         

Still, we remain

gently intertwined 

                   

                    Perhaps we are vines….

                                     

Growing stronger

as buds bloom to beautiful flowers

beckoning to be adorned

           by dreamers

                       and lovers

and those longing to dress their worlds

         in romantic colors of bliss…

 

So when evening falls

and the sun sets on a misty shore

the essence of the bloom will

                    shimmer

as stars dance in the sky

in a serenade of sweet lullabies

         weaving delicious dreams

            til petals fall

                 like rain

 

in the softest shower of possibilities

 

Certain  when morning comes

with the dew

         and the hope

of the next new bud to surely bloom again…

 

we remain

with a poem in our hearts

 

Perhaps we are more than vines…

 

                          Perhaps…

        we are star-crossed

I always enjoy your calibrations with Julie. You two have a special synergy in your writing. I enjoy both of you as poets, butt the melding of styles gives you a bit more. Three spacing is pure Trace, but the words feel like a meld of both. I get hints of Julies viice then a hint of yours, butt like all the best collabs, it's hard to see where the lines are. They are smudged and blended too perfection. Or perhaps you have become the vines that intertwine

[Trace]

Julie is such an artist with words and when we get together, our writing takes on a different tone that works so smoothly and flows as if we were one.

I am so glad you enjoy our work.
