Nice

I was really moved by this. The last two stanzas gave me the goose bumps. Excellent poem! Solid!

mind blowing.....

I've been "off poems" and back to writing stories for a while, but this may bring me back. Your writing flows so effortlessly, surely this is "the art that conceals art!"

When the newborns come[/B]


we bring them to her first,
wrapped tight and lowered into skeletal arms--
arms once strong with the weight of children
held lovers as if life depended upon not letting go

these rings trapped behind swollen knuckles
slide loose and free as her verse
typed with relentless passion
[I]Steel and riverstones,
longing and loss[/I]


her silent poetry, dissolved like salt in tears
christen our newborns

we bring them to her first
