barefeet thru the mud

[panta rhei]

toes digging deep
into the soil
into the rich scent
of virgo earth

deepest marrow
welling up from
underneath our step

earth-hood: the inaccessible
ember

our feet wandering
on ancient murmur

while
betwen the swallow
and the
nameless bird

september
tears the sky

[Doreen Peri]

nice description

you took me there

happy birthday!

[judih]

toes reach out to roots
cool evening soil beckons approach
barefoot songs of home

[panta rhei]

let's dig deep
into the warm scent of
virgo earth
sink into
the murmur of the late
summer sun

sky vaster than ever
encloses us
opens us
suffuses us

and we drink
the gold that seeps
through these days' pores

taste with full kisses
our saffron souls

[hester_prynne]

Delicious, devourable words.....!
And by the way, a happy birthday to you!

minimal, but yet dense with poetic imagery.

[Nazz]

compelling images and thoughts, panta..

the inaccessible ember and ancient murmur.
we seem to have no direct access to either, yet we seem to be both.

speaks of places one has rarely seen
