PERSONA



In pursuit of a less deceitful dream

In need to draw up

That capricious scene

Where no oath seems to succeed


Discerning a purple light

Motionless

How should I recite

Low or high


Find a less bizarre stillness

In vain diminish

Those remote peaks

I’ll never reach


Overshadowing these now mild

Mysteries of love

Peace, harmony…


Overhearing the voices

Of the ones

Who passed away.


I enhance this nuance

Nude I feel to be

As if in a gallery,

Posing

Resting

Petrified

A work of art


A gem I am

Gazing at you


You are your persona…


…You peep at me


Shame and pity


Cannot see

What

Out of

You’ve skipped.

Hi, my friends,
I'll catch up on you as soon as I can-

This I just needed to write...

Now I really need a rest and I know you'll understand.
I felt like closing comments, but that would not be fair, would it?

Sweeter hugs!
♥ ♥ ♥

Brian wrote so well what I think, but he has the proper wordings...

If you mean you are leaving the blogs--for a time, or forever, THAT would be the shame.

You deprive several hundred "followers" a daily treatment--or treat--of Sweet Poetry, from Sweet Dulce. SO much "sweetness" here....

Take Care, Amiguita

I love this Dulce...Twisted just as our minds work...I wish I can control my dreams and visions

A vivid dream... that is not a dream... but feels as one... an out-of-body experience... of small glances... poses... flickers of understanding... and realization.

Hoping you are doing well, Dulce. Don't work too hard... take your time... most importantly... come back! Love you bunches!!! And here's a smile for you... :-) ... not a "pregnant" one. ;-)

:) I can't even focus on what your poem means, i am sure it is beautiful, it is just that it is such a coincidence with what i just posted on my blog. After i posted i was drawn to your photo (that shows in my blog.) I thought maybe i can set in purple light, use it for my art somehow.
so i do ask you; can i paint the painting you posted?

A gem I am
Gazing at you


I love those two lines and yes, you are. Written with such passion, Dulce, but don't get lost in the dream. I like it very much. ;)
