Poem -
Blank Light
I keep safe the illusion
That all hearts are red
Beating out passions
and rippling breath
I keep safe the illusion
Lest the small children cry
Tiny hands curling tears,
to know
Alive hearts can die, that
They might know of a colour,
so icy cold white
Like the frosted blue
branches
Raised high to blank light
In a crystalline image
Of a winter's deep sleep
So I keep safe my secrets
In illusions I weep

Marion, I guess that being a poet gives each of us a little flexibility in your language and to be honest it's great to read many times. For this one is pinned.
I love the fact that your words can be used to evoke so many emotions and however expressed I feel I've had a good day after reading one of your engaging poems!
