I saw you...


I saw you as I awakened in the woods in the dark.
There you were, peeking at me thru the trees
And moving quickly as a sprite.
But I knew you were there
And my chills went away as I became accustomed to your presence
My body warmed and I sat up, then stood, naked, to glimpse you better.
Your essence filled me knowing you were always here for me
And I shivered in anticipation as you came closer and closer
And my body began to feel your heat and it caused me shivers of delight
And I stepped closer to you slowly at first and then began running through the pines
And suddenly you caught me full on and I was blinded by you!
Raising my arms in adoration of you.
And then bowing in submission to you.
Whispering...

Father Sun, You've come again.

A good whispering tribute.

Ahhhhh!Finally a REPLY!!!! Thanks RK!

This really is a good one, and I should have replied much sooner (for which failure I apologize); I read and appreciated it right away, but didn't say anything. A lot of people--most people--seem to do that. But it really is a wonderful poem. I love the progression, the unfolding, and then the surprising and refreshing climax contained within the last line; the structure is very strong and sound and satisfying.

Thanks for creating and sharing it with us, Orania.

Love,

+Stevie
