you are in those places
those indiscernible
impenetrable places
however did you get in?
those crevices in my mind
within those shades of grey
betwixt & between
at times obviously so
at times when I am subtly low
the wind, it seems, has carried
you with keen direction
towards me
during these forced quiet moments
you conceal yourself
scrambling for distance
causing deepened wants
along with
a developing abyss
humor displayed, if only
to camouflage hurts
and a weary heart
deceptions unfurled
as if a sail on a laser sailboat
impalpable you!
me with weakened senses…
which were once dynamic?
then a soft whisper arrives
from a distance…
“rain and quiet and rest…all essential
all designed to soothe the pain.”

In part, a beautiful collaboration … thank you,
for the whisper!

Impalpable you...Wow! And "the whisper"--or the whisperer? You weave together and tightly bind the
beautiful words ...beautifully!
Thank you, Calli, for your work, and for my/our meditations on the human condition, LOVE, and the soul which perceives.
yes, sweeps one up and rushes you headlong... to quietude....
Calli, I agree and love the last phrase saying “rain and quiet and rest…all essential all designed to soothe the pain.” Thanks for your reminder. Grace and peace to you.
Thank you James, those particular words; the whisper, I cannot take credit for...someone whispered those words to me. I simply received them as a gift!
Grace and peace to you as well!
And thank you gems for such kind comments!

And I love how you write too; you!
You seem to have that softness of the Soul that can actually speak to the reader (well this one anyway).
rain and quiet and rest...all essential. This one is so beautiful...
