Clover Sea 





I heard laughter's memory
While haunting marbled halls
Echo from the Catacomb's
Cascading waterfalls

And wished that I had hidden
In my secret reverie
Ships of visions misting
When I sailed the Clover Sea

Or praying star-flaked melodies
That sang my tears to sleep
And scathed my childhood tragedies
To flood the darkest deep

But sordid orbs of meaningless
I'd sunk in oceans lost
Before I dreamt a universe
I someday would have crossed

Yes

Anna, you really have got it together with these mystical poems of yours.

I could read them all day, especially with a pint of the old Liffey Water in me hand.

They're beautiful - I'm definitely getting there with poetry!

Phil!

Hiyer, how goes it?

Yeah, it feels great to be nearly finished with Poetry book I writig titled 'Deserted Leviathans' which was like sixty chapters of free verse.

Aye, but I rhymer.

I been contemplating whether or not I should post the only work of mine I even like and will read on occasion here.

It continuous Poetic story that rhyme except fer second and last chapter, but I not know if hit or miss with chapters from readers will work or not with it.

Anyway, thanks Phil

Keep well,

'Anna

I had to read this a couple of times and I still can't grasp it all. But then again I'm not the smartest degenerate around. Nicely done Anna. One shredded thumb up. I'd give you the good one up but I've got to keep it safe, so I hid it....

You really do get deep in your poetry. You force me to read your words more than once so I can penetrate the many complicated layers of intellectual thoughts. You're very good at using right words to convey a message. Well done.

You manage to write lyrical poem without it sounding old hat. You have made this modern sounding within the lyrical hold.
