clinging to a bright cloud

clinging to a bright cloud

 

 

breeze me with your kisses

knock me over with your scent

i am a willow leaning

toward your love

rooted in the fervor of you

 

growing toward a wisp of intriguing beauty

never aging

even as i grow weary

and sway,

my heart stands firm

in your memory.

Some of the most beautiful words clad with stillness and love are on this site, and this poem of yours makes me think of how things meet an ending, inevitably and yet some things are eternal, and love is one, no matter how many wars are being fought in this temporary world. Thank you Jacob, thank you so much. Take care, always.

As beautifully graceful as a willow blowing in a soft breeze! Nice to balance out the ugly public discourse with an escape to gentle thoughts (((HUGS)))

oh the willow ... :) i agree with Nightingale about the "breeze me..." line ... i am sitting under a ceiling vent that at this moment is breezing my shoulders and cheek ... all i had to add is kisses and let myself sway as a willow ;) i had some good fun reading this one jacob .. its quite romantic and subtly sensuous

'my heart stands firm
in your memory.'

I think it's the memories which hold us together more often than the person themselves...

Love the clinging to a bright cloud feeling...

Has a Native-American flavor.
Literally, heartfelt.
