Poems I've Written
 

Please feel free to comment and critique. I've read through a lot of the original writing, and I am really impressed by the caliber of writing here - especially by those who participate in the writing challenges - so I'd be really happy to receive opinions and any constructive input or suggestions. Thanks in advance for your help.

Gift (September 29, 2005)

Taut and round, a small mound
of heightened anticipation.
Little Buddha tucked just beneath
your beating heart-
the new center of your world.
Small silent swimmer,
eyes closed to the watery darkness,
floating and languid, fed and connected
by a cord of rushing blood.
Little fish, sweetest vessel of dreams-
nameless, sleepy and waiting
for spring to arrive-
when love will pour forth
delivering new life.

Nice...Gave me a smile
