Re: Food for Thought
Hi all,
Some poetry play on words,by
phireflye
Enjoy
the meadow of my head
is filled with an ocean
of wildflowers spreading
like wildfire through my senses
courted by butterflies, dragonflies, bees
a riotous burst of sweet-scented yellows
lavenders, and blues dancing in the breeze
i swear i smell them
i swear i feel them growing
into all my cavities
where once rested my heart
now lives greenery
tiny blossoms branching fractally
where there were lungs
now a zillion red ladybug wings
are opening and closing
my organs have sprouted roots
in this fertile soil, how vital i feel
how nourished and elemental
i am crazy with life, overun, overgrown
pervaded by beauty, oh so tenderly
how vibrantly illuminated
is the garden of me
drenched in the blazing sun of your
Love

a tree shivers
ripe fruit drops
the ground quivers
in momentary shock
a seed quickens
in rotting flesh
sweet pickin's, death!
into my belly
you'll go then
as jam or jelly
and out the other end!
back to the earth
to decompose
to another birth
and another seed grows
