She Loves Me ...

compound complex

O, melting moon,
She drips puddles
Of light about my
Feet ...

Achingly, she lets out
A tiny groan, allowing
To slip a sole and final
Beam

That will caress my febrile
Brow, to reassure that ever-
More I will be La Luna's only
Love.

Hello CoCo . . .

Beautiful poetry . . . I stood outside last night under a clear starry sky with a 3/4 moon . . .

The moon always stirs us somewhere deep inside . . .

And then you write this . . . lovely.

Thank you, Size, for posting your thoughts.

I've written many lunar episodes, particularly with the bent of her seduction of spiritually wavering souls.

La Luna has smitten me.

I always appreciate your stopping by. Have a good day.

I wish it were original . . . but I've always loved this lyric . . .

..................................................

And each one there . . .

Had something to share . . .

They'd all sweated under the same sun

Looked up in wonder at the same moon

And wept when it was all done

For bein' done too soon

- Neil Diamond

Thank you, Violia and Syl, for saying hello. It's nice to "see" both of you again.

I appreciate those lines of ND's verse, Size. Beautiful words.

Here's hoping the wheels of mind and heart begin turning once again, causing copious ink to flow upon pages too long blank.

Love,

CoCo

it must be the moon b/c between the poetry and the thread about the folk singer who died, I feel like listening to Leonard cohen.

I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Baby I have been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you.
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in with you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was HallelujahHallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there’s a God above
But all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
It’s not a cry you can hear at night
It’s not somebody who has seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light in every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

the original done by himself, done by so many others
Hallelujah

HOW I LOVE YOUR POEM and the MOON. stare at it every nite i possibly can and made sure my casa was built with as much glass as possible to enjoy.

enjoy the Leonard Cohen music --- have his tape with the handcuffs on label but talk about X rated. love his music and voice.
