More Than I Can Say

I went looking for something different,
maybe embedded in the rooms
of other worlds.
Possibly feelings
contained in oceans,
drunk
from singing
romantic melodies.  

I found skies running backward
and started asking myself
too many questions
about just how
I should be.
Then across my face
ran my inner child
and solved the mystery.

Under my feet, I stepped on syllables
I had charmed
into becoming a song
of the morning.
Just to watch them staring back
into the sea of my soul
on pages requiring nothing
from me.

I went looking for something different,
entranced
in complete curiosity.
What I found was a flower
unwinding each petal
into the light
of day.

Embedded in the rooms of other worlds
there are winds
that imprint pleasure in shades
that cry out to the ego
in sudden breaths
and feelings
contained in oceans
burning brighter
than anything I have
ever said.

[Poetic Beauty]

I went looking for something different. This is a great poem about stopping to notice the little things that are unique and beautiful around us. Sometimes love comes in a different package than what you are normally drawn to and that can make all the difference in the world.

this is great, the meanings of your poems gets deeper every time you write, this is powerful....

[Plagued Monumentally]

Reading this poem, I wasn't sure exactly what it was about. To me I got the impression of adventure and romance. But it doesn't matter what I got out of this poem because it was beautifully written. A beautiful poem for such a beautiful writer. Keep up the good work Neva, and make sure you send me tons more read requests! You know how much I love them. :)

This is one of your best, Neva. Like you went soul searching and found so much more than you were looking for, and it was all good. I love the happy feeling this left me with.
Outstanding writing, delightful reading.
