You’re pulling strings,
subtly tugging
on my attention.
I arrest my shy ways
around you,
and we both show our smiles
in a cold morning sun.
Words weave their way
round branches
and twigs,
leaving my mouth
and floating into yours,
where you taste them
with your inquisitive tongue.
You twist my mind
into a wisp,
and I repeatedly
open my eyes,
to feel the thrill of ecstasy
(every time I do so)
of seeing you’re still here,
kissing me.
You make me sigh and lick
my lips, until
I feel the coldness of a wind
kissing me in return.
You’ve disappeared,
leaving an owl
hanging.

here you go chatty owl 🙂 http://robertmudge.net/blog-of-the-year-2013-award/
Almost as if it was a dream, the kind you think is real until you wake up and realise it wasn’t and you’re left with an urge to quickly fall back asleep and rejoin the dream but its too late! Kind of like that 😉
Beautiful poem dear, it just flows along so effortlessly!!
Sometimes its so difficult to express my thoughts into a beautiful-flowing poem, but i try my best with the help of my muse 🙂
Well you and your muse make a great team! 😉
We try! 🙂
Wispy, floaty, just carried on the wind. Really enjoyed this one Chatty.
Thanks so much! Im glad you thought floaty was nice 🙂
I really liked your poem! Blessings!

Perhaps one shouldn’t close eyes so often.. “still here” sounds surprising, but always here sounds committed to shared visions
It is surprising, right? It always blows my mind to see that someone would stick with me no matter what.
Just beautiful
Thank you, mister.
A masterpiece of words painting a vision. Feels like I’m at the window looking in…
Come on in, its cold outside.
I might enjoy some warmth.
Your brilliance is inspiring, Chatty Owl.
Thank you.
That is a way too kind thing to say. Especially coming from The Hook.
I call ’em as I see ’em.
Sweet man, you.
Very neat and full of great visuals
Glad you thought so.
Great prose, Ms. Owl. Much like the wind, your words – and the sadness contained within – twist and float aloft…
Thats the idea… To twist round everyone’s minds and leave some kind of memory..
pulling at heart strings – sensual and sad = gorgeous xx
Im trying my best… X
The power of a pen and your imagination… beautiful with a dash of sadness.
Thank you dearest… Sadness is my middle name 😉
Awe man, I thought your middle name was SMEXY. Well that’s embarrassing… 😆 Still think it is. 😉
Awwwwww thanks!
So much imagery and fun here!
Thanks dear! Nice to see you around.
Marionettes
Dance and sway
Always wondering
about the arms to steady them
Belonging
To the dance of strings
Is a perfect way
To dance
A pox on the man leaving you hanging!
I know, right! 🙂
Makes one hope you call out “come back.” Beautiful.
Thank you for your compliment. But i dont think the call back will happen.
Yeah. I didn’t think so.
Very sad poem. Why are there never any happy endings?
Happy endings are for fairytales 🙂
Nah. They can happen. Especially when you have a sexy neck.
Thats if one is lucky to have a sexy neck.
Such blissful kisses, subtle wishes carve in the face if stone. Never alone.
B~xx
Oh what a beautiful comment… X
i always love your poem Chatty! just beautiful.
Oh thanks dear! 😉 nice to see you stop by!
I wouldn’t leave, if I had the opportunity to taste the words from mouth to mouth. That’s the way I think but since there is always an ending to leave readers feeling empty, the climax is just perfect.
Dear Chatty,
Indeed a Fantastic Visual and Beautifully Composed.
Your Friend,
Anastasia
Great visual, Chatty.
Oh, thanks. Long time no see..
Been very busy!
So it seems!
Never…
