Waters Hidden Message (reposting from May for Poetry Thursday)

(A reposting for my contribution to this week’s option on Poetry Thursday)




Waters Hidden Message
Between the lines, under the waters windswept penmanship
Do you see the message?
The warrior of light stands surrounded by many still shining alone
From watery whispers the song comes
The dream of the City of Promise yet unseen
The untold prophesy speaks to open hearts
The tale of of light shared for all who would see
Volumes of truth uttered in solitude
Carried along her tears as they drop into the watery sea
The scribe writes hastily in ebbing tides and quiet moon rays
Flowing into the undiscovered City of Promise
To sing a harmony oh so few hear and she will never see
Claim her tears gentle sea
Be her messenger in the water's parchment
Her story written between the watery lines
So to wash away the sadness
And reveal your city of promise...This is her plea.

This is SO gorgeous. Such beautiful, vibrant imagery. I love the line "claim her tears gentle sea." Thank you for this beautiful and moving poem!

This is 47

In my acquired wisdom I've accepted: 1. That it's OK to admit I like girly things 2. That it's OK I didn't post this ON...
