    LOVE

    Love   Love is a feeling,lately it’s been reeling,making no soundas it get poundinto the ground byfascism’s cold heart.For too long our songhas been unable to start,our tonguesequestered, cut outby traditions and chainsthat hold us tight.Isn’t it time to fight?A time...

    • “vivid as wildflowers” I might steal this line sometime! This beats for me as a song, it has the rhyme and the musical tune, and I can’t help but to remember “wind of change” yes the 80th song, because all I can think of is this poem being a revolutionary song and since the title is “Love” it even holds more power, great poem my friend, it radiates with enthusiastic energy.

      • steal away, my friend, steal away. we are, you know, wildflowers. we bloom in so many different varieties, so many different colors. thanks, Light, for your presence.

    • Well, I am glad I found you here, my friend. You are so welcome here and your voice is needed to give this piece the additional life it can have. Your words are very powerful, and I feel the song in it before you have given it that extra bit of life. So well written. I had no idea you were a revolutionary. Curt. Outstanding work! I look forward to hearing it. Please alert me when it is done.

      • Thanks FlatDaddy, I appreciate your words here. I am still working on the audio, so I will let you know when it is added. Sorry about the closing of the Spoken Word space here at SR it would have been fun. Thanks too, for the encouragement.

    • Your poem is amazing, absolutely amazing, dear Curt! To me love isn’t a feeling, it’s a state of being. When you become love, you will be the wildflower, the deep blue ocean and the bird song, the world needs to feel, hear and see to develop. By being the personification of love you help the whole world to become a better place!
      The rhythm and flow of your poem is superb, it calls out for becoming a song.

      • Hi Sappho, we humans NEED art, and I think as poets it is our responsibility to be part of making the world a better place, to be the wildflowers who associate and pollinate a world with life and color. Thanks for your visit Sappho.

    when we thought ourselves lost

    So stain—as marks that remain longer than intent,and hesitation pressed into the grain. Second guess,doubt’s small fracture widening,as though the Voice were drowned,as though we mistook the silencefor absence. But sustain is not the clean note held—it is the rough edge,the...

    • So, you’re staying that nothing is gone and even though it may feel like you’re losing it, You should stay fast because you are not erased but being led down a path you cannot see? That is what I get.

      • Hey Fia, I think you’ve captured the heart of it beautifully. The poem is holding onto a truth: that even when it feels like silence or loss, we’re not ourselves erased. What seems like absence is often a hidden kind of leading, and the very marks we carry become proof that we were being guided all along. Something like that.
