dancing to be flowers (Free verse) by richa
As the light begins to creep over, The cracked rim of a mountain And the slow hail of bark Beats a clock All the sentients come to Among the bit part percussions And recognise the day from Many similar Watching as the sun flatters Its reflection in rivers And on blonde buttercups Turned away from the graves Not honoured just weathered Slow in the long time Just facing the wide sky And dancing to be flowers

Down the ladder: Whales in Gastineau Channel

Yes, obtuse (one of those words we all learn in math and toss around later at frat parties as a sign of intelligence and breeding ability) but know, look it up. this poem is hardly obtuse. Scattered, symbolically riddled and a bit cryptic (just a tad) but not obtuse. Nice cleavage by the way, i pulled a load off to um last night and lost not a beed to bargain.

you have a sweet way of bringing that wee bit of light in, just enough to clear the haze of darkness shrouding the landscape. love just dancing to be flowers.

well it started badly, tailed off a little in middle, and the less said about the end the better. Apart from that, I loved it!
