Life like heaven

By boneplate

something your soul

can only sense. the sun

can only watch

in jealousy,

stars fall to grace. fingers

feel God

searching, to touch

your beauty. tears bring wild

flowers to the flat desert

with bold and beseeching colors

breathing life like heaven

filling the world with

tomorrow’s dreams.

  • A former member wrote: i like the double takes and innuendos in the linebreaks. . . . God searching too; tears bring wild[flowers].....etc.. . . leaves room for peotic breath. good cup here.

  • A former member wrote: and also the implication of the title: life, like heaven [could be beautiful and paradise on earth] OR life.like heaven [with two meanings:: heaven maybe too much like life itself and not quite what we imagine.....and also that heaven may be lifelike as in surreal, and dreamed, pseudo.paradise. .. . ] goodness, im getting dizzy now.
