No Melody

Nude On Butterfly Paper

Ice cracks

as I step on thin layers

 

air vanishes

as I run to kiss the wind

 

fire burns my stomach

as volcano rocks, stuck

 

water slips down my skin

as I sing, no melody.

But there is always hope. Welcome back! My thoughts said to me 'Welcome home!' so if those are appropriate words, take them, please.

Simple and beautiful and so very you! Those ironies are so very real to us... they are hardly ironic anymore!

I loved it!

Big hugs,

So full of emotion. You knocked your first Sunday 160 out of the park. Thanks for be a part of the fun.

I have been scared a thousand times over with ice, and recently our ground looks like glass, as the frost sets in.

An English rose drives I mostly to pick up my pleasurable senses, and you too seem like a flower worthy of plucking, as your words are poetry in motion.

A cleverly constructed piece that flowed swimmingly.

Thank you. Love love, Andrew. Bye.

Came over to your blog by someone else...we are all in the same journey we just get there at different times.. I enjoyed it very much..

Jhon Baker said...

in love with the ending verse.

Lu Ann said...

Is that even possible?! For you I believe it is.

:) Liked it very much!

nothing going right,
but the words are perfect...

So good. I do think there is a melody though, hiding somewhere in this. Beautiful image too.

Loving butterfly paper and image.

Thirsting for more Dulce-words. This writing not enough length. Is like kiss on neck, never to arrive at lips.

Hearing slipping water, I wish also to hear unsung melody.

New header is nice, but only that much. If half the world is freezing in sleeting, and cold winds blow in snow, must you really wait until 21 December to make a winter scene heading?

Forgive if I must not make opinion in here.

But I like whole thing very good.

This is nice...and it has so much melody!

I hope your Thanksgiving was nice :)

I sometimes hear myself singing no melody.
I often feel like life has taken me dancing and there is no music for which to keep rhythm.

I hear what is going on underneath the surface here.
