unfinished sentences.

you fill the spaces between my vowels

with syllables i'd not thought of, before you...

the eager consonant i can feel stretch itself, cheekily,

to surround my sometimes silent y

is never an unwelcome house guest

never needs to be turfed for having stayed

a week past permission's leaving

your tingly trigonometries of metered verse

sit snugly beside my unruly brambles of thought

with nary a whimper bespoken betwixt them

aside from the simple sigh borne of 

the ongoing realisation that glossolalia has a cure:

your words, 

which slip inside my own meanderings

of wild things that desire to be claimed,

with an ease as if they'd always meant to be there

but had forgotten the proper route, til now

You are a wordsmith of sort..i have been following your words for some time now Jen..and there is no poem of yours which does not amaze me.Always either the content or the words or even both have this fresh spark to them....almost like mint fresh breath :)..
I have to say i am in love with the last stanza..

I love this. Of course, I love when anyone can take love and words and meld them together. I'm a sucker for that sorta thing. Thanks for the read request :)

I knew you were going to write this...lol. You don't find them often and when you do, you hold on to them like there is no tomorrow. Sounds like yours is pretty amazing...Nice writing to start off a Sunday morning.
