Love Souls Embrace

Love Souls Embrace
WRITTEN BY ME...

The message is clear
Pay close attention now
The answer is in the wind and shadow play
The secret dwells in rose petals and banana peels

The prophetic
glows on the tip of a campfire branch
It will not be denied
But it is sometimes overlooked

Like those old wise oaks just outside your window
Who watch your life and laugh and cry
As they silently pray with you each day
And catch Holy tones from Church bells off in the distance

Careful contemplation . . .
It usually happens during some roadside frustration
- you get information through radio messages
and interesting flight patterns in geese.

I hate to use the "f" word after reading your poem, but that was f**king brilliant. I mean BRILLIANT. I'm absolutely in love with it.
