In this stillness...

In this stillness

      where no breath is audible

where violaceous storm clouds  

           seize the night

beseeching a calmness

                      in its intentions

when compassion flows  

                   into crevices of pain

and grace takes a giant stride

                       in man's footsteps,

star's align in perfect symmetry

                              of truth's authenticity

& genuine purity of friendship's

                          faithfulness never falters

in the ether'd dust particles amidst 

               mankind's rising dawn, 

that's where I'll meet you halfway

                         'tween moon's amber light

Still partaking in friendship even when nothing is needed, still feeling the bond with them despite no necessity for them, and enjoying the presence of a companion in the neutral stance, and enjoying every minute of it. This piece shows the purity of friendship and the soft bliss that accompanies a companion, even in times of contempt. Well done, indeed.

Sometimes there is nothing like stillness to understand how blessed we are...

"in the ether'd dust particles amidst
mankind's rising dawn,
that's where I'll meet you halfway
'tween moon's amber light

A new dawn is surely rising...with your poetry! This is mind blowing.

compassion, grace,
lines trace the wonders
compassion the sponge
empathy lights the path
Battered, yet a pulse,
the air rises, the light warms,
the cool steel forecasts
your message to my ear,
a locomotive nears,
Control is felt long before it is seen,
the band awaits,
liberate or domesticate
ah a Valentine,

[Frieda P]

That's totally captivating and touching. When it comes to friendship, I'll always believe that it's a blessing to find a true one.

Wonderful!

Another day, another masterwork from Mrs.R...the first two lines are fitting as I almost have to hold my breath to take in all little flashes of brilliance. You know the drill my friend...you post something, I gush over it, but not because you're my friend, because you're a brilliant writer...xo

[Frieda P]
