I wish we dwelled within the same house and that my bedroom was next to yours. So I could whisper sweet words through the walls as you slept in prayer of inspiring for you most pleasant and colorful dreams.
as i sat upon the golden grass today something caught my eye
it was a tiny plant with soft furry leaves , the kind you want to stroke ever so softly
the kind that leaves its scent on the fingers on touching it
a scent like patchouli ,
that vaporises in the mouth like rosemary
i remembered that i had plucked leaves off of this kind of plant and chewed for the sensation of its juice in the mouth
that instinct was stilled today though
it struck me that all i needed to do was to gently touch it, stroke it , and it willingly and with pleasure gave of itself
its scent and love
as i sat here with this small thing
many things came to view,
that it was the only green thing around, that all around was brown,
all around were shells and husks of once green things
it brought tears to my eyes wondering what must have prompted this beauty to decide to bloom now, in the middle of all this death and winter
who must it have expected to see when it unfolded ,
spreading its softness and scent
it overwhelmed me
such softness in the midst of this harsh landscape
and smiling too
a singular smile
for what was it smiling
to whom was its love addresssed
what was the meaning of this struggle
the fragile nature of everything flashed before my eyes
who would i hate or dislike after this
did i have that right
when this soft thing loves so easily and freely in the midst of this harshness
the act of loving seeming to sustain it
empower it and give its life meaning
i was humbled like never before
i wanted to show you the thing that was experienced
i perhaps have done it clumsily
it is words
and words are words
pink is the color of my skin
glowgleam pink and purple
pink
pink is the mask i wear a shade below
pink flows the green in me
taste it wont you
pink
pink is my black
and red
white is a shade of pink
pink when it is grey
yellow brother gold honey
sister purple
pink
scarlet like you on me
my softness pink
pink diamonds
pink
orange is my love
for pink
blue flame ,
kisses me pinkly
pink
shadows pink
reptilian cold pink
come
come
come
