"There are places in the heart that do not yet exist;
suffering has to enter in for them to come to be.” ~ Leon Bloy
~ * ~
Long strands of light
wrap themselves in the dark of night
and they know not the way or the right
Only the colour of reaction
the unspoken rule of attraction
And in the middle of creation,
he sweeps her feet from the cold dark void
spilling the heart he had tried to avoid
If only there could exist a hope
to catch the moon with lasso and rope
But there is only the colour of reaction
the unspoken rule of attraction
a centre where life is merely refraction
When love is just a hummingbird’s wing
And you start to wonder why
You lock your heart without a key
(Forgive me if I cry)

| This has got to be one of the best poems I have read in a very long time! Pretty much puts me beyond words that seem to do it any justice...but there they are. Truly stunning. |

The way you flex the lang into verses is admirably unique. Beautiful beyond words.

Hi Breezy,
Why (I ask myself) have I not read and
commented on this poem before now.
I confess I don't visit the site as often as I
used to but when I do I'm usually able to
read and comment on a few gems. But I'm
here now and have allowed this masterpiece
to wash over me with its style and
sophistication and its ever-enduring subject
matter. This is not just a gem, it's liquid
gold.
Tommy

written as the flight of the hummingbird..a short flutter of beauty that leaves you satisfied and filled with wonder at witnessing its being. Great write my friend. In the land of enjoyment reading your works. ND.
