there's nothing but love, my love

she was an American refusenik
and the eye of Ra
once gazed upon her

from dust
she fashioned a solitary word
that flowed
into oceanic verse
and weighted down clouds
to anchor roses to the sky

she burned through images
of what can never be seen
she turned pages blank

she was a blade of grass
aloft
a token of love lost.

?she was an American refusenik
upon whom the eye of Ra
once gazed

there are a lot of 'she's in here anna

is there a way of ridding the write of a couple?

i love this though
especially
'weighted down clouds
to anchor roses to the sky' ....

very strong closing words - leave the reader floating....
love judy

Exchange *she*, for whatever word you want, Judy. It's that simple. (Perhaps "Love"?)

I write poetry. Sentence structure and word usage mayhaps be an incongruity....

p.s. Did I say thank you for reading? She was so thoughtless sometimes....
