Awash

yellow, blue and green hue and cry to Gods and all gathering up gradients in tribute look ye!, we have seen her so tall and ranged upon her beauty with many eyes so that a light inside ourselves we now know and none can speak against or refute sea rumble and river flow deep breath slow and now abide she washes the rain with her hair against a gray cloud she knows not the falling pain or what is so easily found there nor does she need to speak it out loud craven by none and wanted all this mountain white is her lair raised on that which is invisible her gravitas knowing nothing of the fall or what is so easily found there without eyes, divisible white birds fly across her fain to be caressed on her knee against a bubble blue curving, swerving and again a sun seen only by this beauty moistened by the touch of you a dance of sun and foggy walls interplay with smiles played upon air horses untethered from any stable free to laugh and cry and call upon Gods and men tan and fair to raise a glass and tell this fable a fire blossom quenched by this pure maiden, down from the sky

Great read; truly poetic and takes me back in time; with verbiage used throughout this piece - the ending ties the poem together - yet through the read I did hesitate for the true meaning of such well versed lines. Look up in the sky - I will - There was only one small word I found odd in the poem and would definitely replace - Bubble - to describe blue - Aside from that I enjoyed your write - Blessings Deni
