Eternal Blue

Blue


Breath

As Deep and Sighing

As the Ocean Blue

Singing

In Liquescent Eternity

Like a Vast and Endless

Breath


Breathe

Wax and Wane

As the Tranquil Sea

Bringing

Life’s Renewal amidst

The rolling Breakers as they

Breathe


Sigh

Blue and Tranquil White

Rocking upon Eternal

Blue

Singing Sweetly Forevermore

As We Breathe a Deep and Lasting

Sigh


~Morgan~

Ecstasy Unfolds – A Collaboration

Ecstacy unfolds


I hear Your voice,

Sweet, Alluring, Delicious;

And My body quivers,

a Willow in November wind;

I have no choice.


I hear You breathe,

Hushed and Rhythmic, Unconscious Seduction;

And My lips tremble,

betraying the Sweet Obsession

that lies underneath.


I feel Your Guile

Measured, Purposeful, Deliberate Plea;

And My eyes close,

Pulse Races and Reticence Scatters;

I see You Smile

As Ecstasy Unfolds.


This poem is the continuation of a collaboration Kim of Peace, Love and Patchouli blog found at https://zipsrid.wordpress.com and I are working on. The idea may sound convoluted, but its a test of Inspiration and prompts. I Sent her the artwork and title for the poem Deliberate, found below, and she had to come up with the verse. Then, she sent me the beautiful image above and the title for the next poem which I had to write (Clandestine). Round and round we go (until we get bored or find a perfect stopping point, whichever comes first!) If you haven’t read her Beautiful poetry before, I strongly recommend visiting her blog, filled with the most lyrical phrases, delicate verses, profound notions wrapped in ethereal prose and lovely photography and artwork. This is what drew me in when I first met Zippy, as I call her (derived from the Infinite Zip screen name she uses) and what keeps me coming back for more and more and more. I hope you enjoy our extended collaboration. More to follow, week to week, as we continue to test and inspire each other. Fine our previous poems below…


Beguiled


Eyes that smolder, drawing you in

the teasing smile like a sensual sin

she gazes through, lights your soul on fire

as your thoughts burn like a funeral pyre,

her skin so smooth, so silky light

and you want it so much, this lovely delight.

Her words capture you, a sweet southern drawl

on hands and knees you’d surely crawl

to touch this maidens soft pale skin

your fingers run down as you begin

to trace her back like a delicate dance

lost in the moment of this romance.

Beguiling words to quench your thirst

for lust and life she will come first

to weave her magic on a poor souls heart

you never want to be swept apart

this wild hearted woman with a wanton need

will claim your soul, on this she’ll feed

and take you to the dream you crave

for her you’d be her beckoned slave.

She is the master of such desire

a sultry mistress you’ll never tire

as she leads you to her chamber door,

Oh God, you think…I must have more.


~Kim of Peace, Love and Patchouli~

Clandestine


Awake amidst the Morning’s shimmer,

Glimmer Smiling upon your Skin,

Begin the day with Love Beguiling,

Smiling to know the quandary we’re in!

Beyond the Whispers, Silent as Prose,

Rose Red Morning lifts her Gaze,

Haze of Passion Softly Singing,

Bringing Mischief to these weary Days!

Oh My Love, Before you Leave me,

Be my All one Moment More,

Implore from me my Heart’s Desire,

Fire Kissing a Boundless Shore!

Clandestine Love, Immortal Treasure,

Amidst stolen Moments of Exquisite Pleasure!


~Morgan~


Deliberate Plea


You come to me

Deliberate and gentle

In my weakest moment

You gather me close

Skin touching skin

Please, let us begin.

Passion fills the air around

Touch me now,

Don’t let me down

I am filled

My cup overflowing

You are all I desire,

With you my soul is on fire

As we are love inspiring

Take me now,

One more time.


~Kim of Peace, Love and Patchouli~

In The Lime Light – Trini Lind/ Love Notes from My Heart

Line Prisad 2


Please do allow me to Introduce you to One Of the Loveliest Souls I have had the great pleasure of meeting through the Magic of blogging: Trini Lind of the Beautiful Poetry and Photography blog Love Notes From My Heart https://pathsofthespirit.wordpress.com


Trini says it best, so, in her own words (borrowed from her About page)

Dearest lovely people,

I am delighted to have you visiting me here!

I am a joyful soul who believes in healing the world through Love, a Love that starts first with ourselves, then expands to eventually include every living being on planet earth and beyond. I believe that a way to Love yourself is to always seek joy, comfort, and stillness.

I live my dreams every day and I try to create a little magic in the world by leaving a trail of Light wherever I happen to walk.


Now if that isn’t enough to make you dash right over to her blog for a leisurely meander, I’m not entirely sure what will! Still, if you need a bit more convincing, consider this: Do you enjoy beautiful photography, fairy tales, short stories, breathtaking poetry, all graced by a gentle spirituality that sings upon the wing; music you’ve probably never heard before and insights into the wonders of life? Yes, I do as well, which is why I am drawn again and again to Trini’s blog. But don’t take my word for it, read on and discover for yourself more about her :)

About Your Blog:


Tell us about your Blog.

I started my blog a little over a year ago, because I wanted to inspire people with my writing. I have been writing since I was 6 and for me writing is a way of reaching out to people, sharing the love, joy and peace in my heart. My blog is mainly a poetry blog, but I sometimes also publish photos and articles. Most of it has a spiritual theme, but you will also find love poems, fun photos and some articles about culture and social work.


What Inspires the Magic within you?

I am inspired by so many things! Nature, people, art, spirituality and music. I think if I had to choose one if those things It would have to be nature. I just love nature. I find God in nature, in small things like a beautiful butterfly, a little flower in the wayside, white sails on the horizon, a starry sky, a bird sailing the wind.


What Message, if any, do you hope to Share through your blog/posts?

I think my ongoing message which seeps through everything I do is Love. When I was little I said that I wanted to love all those who did not have anyone to love them. As an adult I know that that is not possible so I have rephrased my dream, saying now that I want to help people to love themselves, to find love within. I think that is my message.


Do you have any upcoming events or projects, books, promotions, giveaways?

No, not really. I keep writing every day. Creating, looking for beauty and evidence of God’s Love to share. But you never know what will happen. I follow my heart, and the heart can be impulsive.


About YOU:

Describe yourself in Five Words

Oh, that is difficult. Let’s see…spiritual, artistic, creative, highly sensitive, joyful. Yes, that sounds like me.


Tell us about something from your childhood that sparked the magic of creativity inside you.

I was always a creative child. I think teaching myself to read and write when I was 4 must have been the most magical thing in my childhood. From then onwards I just wrote and wrote all the time.


When you are not writing/taking pictures, what is your favourite pastime?

Reading, listening to music, being in nature or around animals like horses, or anything creative like drawing, painting or just making things.


If you could invite Five People (from the past or present) to a dinner party, who would you invite and why?

This one is not easy…..let me think…..it had to be someone I admire……like Meryl Streep, yes I looooove her! She is so amazing! Funny, kind, warm, wise, artistic and deep. And I love her speeches! Then my next choice would be…..J.K Rowling, I think. I love her in interviews and her life story is so amazing, and I of course love the Harry Potter books! Seems like I am keeping to famous people here! Well anyway…..it is just the truth! The third one would be Emma Watson because I love her speech about gender equality in the United Nations meeting. That was amazing! I want to discuss that speech with her. The fourth would be the Princess of my native Norway. She is very spiritual, has written books about guardian angels and organizes classes for spiritual growth. The fifth would be a musician, Loreena McKennitt I think. I love her music so much, and she has such a poetic and artistic soul. I would just love to listen to her talking about folklore and old myths and legends. So there you have it! It looks to be a real hen party with five strong and independent women, an author, two actresses, a celtic musician and a princess, perfect! I bet we’ll have an amazing time with lots of wine and wonderful food!


What makes Life Worth Living?

Oh, so many things! Love of course! That is most important! The giving of love and the receiving of it! If I ever feel sad, like the world is too harsh and cruel, I think of how much love I can give, and what a difference that can make, that always picks me right back up. I feel my number one responsibility is to my soul, letting it grow and shine and reach its full potential.


Thank You Ever so Much Trini for Sharing yourself with us. (By the way, I agree, Loreena McKennitt is Amazing!) And so are you :)

Friday Fantasy – Lark

Lark


Magical Grace upon the Wing,


Whisper Light,


Whisper Beauty,


Like Sweet Larks that Sing.


.


Like a river, her teal hair flows,

Too beautiful to put in prose.

A finer creature, I have not seen,

This one must be a queen.


Austin Snyder

The Whispers

Whispers 1


Listen to the Softest sound,


The Hum of History Speaking loud,


In the dusky, earthen shroud,


Or in the Vision of Liberating Green.


Whispers 2


Past the intricate technology,


Beyond the Fine, Posh Luxury,


Into the Picturesque Vistas I See,


Glimmering in an Archaic Sheen.


Whispers 3


Speaking in Tones Gently Untold,


While the future hurries to unfold,


I Stand on the hillside, Silent and Bold,


Listening to the Whispering Scene.


~Morgan~

Sweetest Addiction

Sweetest Addiction


You Are for Me,


I am For You,


This Promise,


Matched,


Is Ever True;


Waiting cannot Shake


The Strength of my Conviction,


You are Love,


You are Desire,


You are My Heart’s


Addiction.


Patience Bending


Through this Portal of Time,


Beyond Reason,


Beyond Measure,


Singing Sweetly Our Rhyme!
