I fell

I fell into the kindness of your eyes
as they shone sprinkles of smiles
when in free fall leaning toward
fears flew as tears and cries
of joy knew you had found
and carried me to that safe place
where suspended in time and space
was no yesterday nor tomorrow
only now; here and the now of knowing
the touch of velvet rain
washing the irritation of cruel dust
and surrendering in pools of calm
kissing sweet breath on parched lips
and opening air ways of honeyed breeze.
This is a lovely sounding poem - it carries with it many sound echoes, rhymes, half rhymes which flow through the whole piece. I love the ‘in the moment’ feel - salient, wise, and at the same time a little vulnerable
Being in the here and now! We often don’t spend enough time being aware of this space. I love how as in ‘I fell’ we can all fall into and find this safe and cleansing space of surrender and calm.
