A Golden Ray

How can I encapsulate
all which I feel
like fitting the universe
through the opening
of earth's gate

words are insufficient
to paint the clarity I see
as if asking,
why do birds fly

on my coldest day
when warmth
seems so far away
you come as the Sun
on a single golden
Ray

About This Poem

Maybe I should just write the least words as possible like: I fucking love you!! To much huh. Hahaha! son of a shit I already have six revisions and still no vision of an end LMAO!

I wrote it like that for affect

"why did God cause them
to take flight.
(pause in the thought so as to ponder)
The birds"

nice to see you on my page, i think you've been hiding from me.
Where Is Rosi? there she is.

from your recent writes is seems you found your way out of the funk you were in, I'm glad you gained your prospective back, it makes for better writing.
thank for the Brilliant

Is the ability to show a long thought in a small amount of words, it's not easy to do, to tell an entire story and keep the reader interested by the metaphor you put into it. I like this but I think considering your notes that it doesn't require as much as you have here.

you are like
trying to fit the universe
through the opening of earth's gate
insufficient words
won't paint me clarity
as god won't answer
why it is a bird can fly

you are the sun
on my coldest day
born of a single
golden ray

Hope you don't mind :P

I like what you have done, But, what does this mean;
"won't paint me clarity"
what am trying to say there is, she has incredible clarity on who she is and what she wants or needs from me.
that make me respect her more, which strenghten my love for her. (now that's a mouth full Hahaha!)
I need a re-write of your re-write. LMAO!

Eduardo Cruz

If you needed it, well there it was.
thanks Little Witch, it's always nice to see you.
