Ferns

Lights as lightning,

how they glitter
off the ripples on the lake.
The morning anguish of the water
deflected,
as a painted lily sunning
near the wet bank.

The reasons may be vain
reflected in the walk,
the talk of Monets' water
as if to cure some pain.

Lost in inner speculation,
of emotions' fine mist
cast in the shadow of the Oaks,
my eyes turn to a vision.

I stop and think
of how much I enjoyed
the pleasure of your laughter,
the time we spent together,
the warmth of your breath.
I see you in every dawn.

In the nest of green ferns,
lays the hope of revival,
a pearl of invocation
to spawn into a rainbow
as my memories of you.

In a nest of green ferns.

You are a painter too and lucky are those who are part of these sweet memories of yours because even though you may or may not be apart........you give them center stage. Your choreography is impeccable and your keep your subjects in the limelight!

Ferns... full of misteries, surrounded by passion, by heat and blood, by the deppest red love.

This one is incredible! I love your mystic view and appreciation for nature. Recently i've started admiring ferns; they have this high romantic, "naturistic" content! I know exactly the way you feel and the way you express yourself. Very Good!

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
