Voice of The Whisperer

By Midnight Phoenix

Clouds and open windows so soothing like a frozen lake to a
Path of glitter reflecting thoughts held in the sun’s hand.
So ambient and lustrous the sands, but are they for me?
Like the passing of a lantern in midnight eye
She dims slowly and waits for her next arrival.

Staring at the endless stream of dust I find her waiting
Like a dream waiting to be lived, waiting to be seen.
So unnatural and beautiful, but is this for me?
Violet hues and moonlit paintings so dramatic
As the ink bleeds and a thousand words are hushed
We wait in silence while a single voice whispers an answer.

    your words flow masterfully like an artist's paintbrush against a canvas. yet i am distracted by a gentle cross breeze produced by the dramatic images. this is a teaser piece, for you've left me wanting to taste a few more beautiful images. bravo.
