Array ( [sid] => 172015 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Emerald Waters. [time] => 2012-04-19 11:56:07 [hometext] => As a child I used to spend a lot of time alone at a small lagoon hidden in a wood. I felt at one with source and far from the abuse I suffered at home. [bodytext] => Emerald waters haunt my dreams of late.

Ancient oak hold spring deep within their bough.

Dappled sunbeams chalk crystal streams awake.

Young summer winds tease hare and bare hedgerow.

Emerald waters lay my mind at rest.

Heaven sent to heal within verdant rhyme.

Devoured through timid hand I request,

deservedly to reap this life of mine.

This gossamer world oh so easily spun,

from threads natural to an open heart.

Has golden appled oak in autumn sun,

and healing truth to offer from the start.

Such liquid life flowing from heartfelt stream,

draw this slumbering soul from winters dream. [comments] => 8 [counter] => 268 [topic] => 62 [informant] => Raggie [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => spiritual )

Devoured through timid hand I request,

This gossamer world oh so easily spun,

Such liquid life flowing from heartfelt stream,

draw this slumbering soul from winters dream.

Your poem is really a treat,
I enjoyed it an awful lot.
It is a poem that cannot be beat,
I'd like to grow the seeds of its fruit, in a pot.

Your words flow with such a joyous comfort. It hids the pain of the abusive torment, within the gentle guide of your words. Great write. I truly enjoyed it. Thank you so much for sharing this.

A great opening line. I enjoyed your descriptive sentences. A refuge is priceless. I try to keep mine inside my head , with the help of meditation , so that none can ever touch it. Great work , truly , Doug

When your spirit can lightly dance across the words then your soul cries out with the beauty of the poetry.

The last two lines of this poem are majestic to say the least!

"Such liquid life flowing from heartfelt stream,

draw this slumbering soul from winters dream."

I just want to read them over and over!
