    Midnight Awakening

    Dusty, earth coated bare feet,
    Lifted, Barely touching the well worn path.
    Inhaling deeply of the scented midnight air,
    Intoxicating, lifts the soul like a drug.
    Smooth, soft palms open and outstretched,
    Caress the rough bark of the silent guardians.
    Full and round, the silvery goddess casts her light
    shimmering satin ribbons dance down before me.
    Softly whispering and twisting
    Invisible fingers, of the soft breeze caress my bare skin.
    The deep purple wood awakens with its song,
    hidden in shadow, all around, they lift their voices.
    My steady beating heart, like a drum, joins the song.
    Closing my eyes, feeling the energy,
    Awakening my inner peace.

    Ahhhhhhhhhh - your images have awoken my inner peace. The words tingle with each shining description - this is one of poems that can stand alone, be added to, or continued on in a trilogy. Thank you for sharing your talent.

    You have awoken my inner peace with this beautiful piece- 10 from me

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
