~ TO TASTE OF LIFE COMPLETELY ~
{from such is poetry}
How delicious it would be
To taste of life, completely
To sweep into a patch of grass
Moves me warm, and ever lasts...
Comes a time, when souls swim green
Takes of time, its soft and sultry
As cotton wind on feathered feelings
Soaking up buttercups, and just thinking...
An inkling of what may brightly bloom
Ginger berries, manifesting mushrooms
Frolicking fairies glow golden wings
The softness so subtle, through quiet sings...
Comes a time, when the world so still
Echoes nothing, but dreams fulfilled
Become a garden of dancing lights
Birthing beauty and creative heights...
From such are poetry and artistry born
And all the world, with color adorned
Oh how delicious, it would be
To taste of life, completely...

This...is what I mean about you being up there with the greatest on here. I was very physically lying in a field of wild flowers totally at peace with the world and myself. You probably intended a much deeper meaning which others will pick up on but me?...I'm lying in the wildflowers, in the sun, in peace...and I thankyou for that. Pinned because it's beautiful ?
You are so cool Marion!!.....I Love that it just "Took you away" like the old Calgon bath bead commercials!! LOL!!.....I wrote this this with 'softness' as part of the equation.... as I am sure you can tell by my word choices.... smiles....... so happy to hear that you took a happy ride dear poet sister!! ...more smiles...... and thank you for this.......stay groovy......T xo. : )
Oh wouldn't it be so good if our lives planned out the way we dreamed they would. No dramas or hiccups or accidents or illness. Happiness is such a simple thing yet so difficult to obtain in totality. Yet trauma and heartache (in all its guises) are the very things from which a poet is born. And it is only really the poets and writers and artists that see the magic in the everyday. A fabulous and extremely well written poem x
Wow! Thank You BEING ME!!.... that is such an astute/insightful commentary on my write.... and Oh My goodness ~ I couldn't agree more with you on the shared perception of writers, poets, and artists..... so, was 'Being Me' your name when you were on here before?..... just curious/snoopy nosed!! (smiles)...... anyway, thanx again for the 'way cool' comment dear poet sister!!....... hope I got the gender thing right!! (more smiles)........ later.......T xo. : )
No, my name was not Being Me before. It wouldn't let me use my old Cosmo name...my real name. And yes you got the gender right ? x
From such artistry and poetry is born.
Are you sure you have never visited my woods?
Excellent write my friend

My Dear Tony,
These two lines are poetic artistry personified. As usual, you have knocked the ball out of the park.
I savor "To Taste Of Life Completely"
To be successful in my quest
I ingest the essence of Mother Nature
And my peace does she behest
All my love,

" NOTED, IN DISPATCHES. " LIFE.
What, it gives. What, it takes.
Fact, over fiction, leaving you the " interest " of sumptuous gains, from effort so satisfying it makes you hanker for MORE. You, walk through the valley of green and " Buttercup " yellow...to the shadows. Starkly, fulfilling a craving to experience. To, sense. To, learn. Even, appreciating losses.
" THE HEART OF THE MATTER, IS WHAT MATTERS TO THE HEART ! "
Live, in the moment. Where you are. Knowing, what you are....and, represent.
Feel, the wind. And, " tides " turning. To give passage, of time, meaning.
Along with " Promised Land " !
:)
Beautiful ❤
