- Sacred Seeds and Totems -







Within Sacred song I sing and send
on feathered lines, 'free will' did mend~
Humility hears, ears do lend
to listen - learn from whispering wind.

Hesitation a cause of callous grief
where footsteps left, found no relief
but outside outlined, spiritual reef;
earth brought bounty, fed Belief.

Babes cry, echo from cradled heart
in sight of my children, every part
of me I see in them~ 'Pure' Art
unblemished and untainted apart
from outside outline of society's chart;
I sing to them, 'Love' from the start.

Before they greet, bid morning rise~
wipe with Gratitude sleep from eyes.
We intertwine through intimate ties
and palm upon palm, erase all lies
their mouths were fed by few unwise
who scoffed at bounty, bragged demise.

Salvation sleeps within my Gems,
in its naked glory, unwise condemns
yet Blessings come full circle and stems
'naturally' from Sacred seeds also totems.

Author's Name: Desire


**Oh My Word- I was nudged to come back and
add this...normally I am Free Verse
and I understand if this does not qualify
because there is mention of free verse on
contest page (Carol's)~
this just flowed out of me...
I did not feel it would flow 'naturally'
if I altered it...So sorry...

Note: My two children are my Gems~
Sacred song within my Heart
alongside Totem Spirit Guides...
Upon rise and gentle fall onto pillow...
They become my Touch~
Are my Dreams...My Future...

    of greatness. Greatness in talent and of humility, are rendered by your soft words flowing like new ink upon the parchment. All that is heard is the giving thereof, yet when read by all wisdom is seen.

    Well Done!

    Excellent


    Salvation sleeps within my Gems,
    in its naked glory, unwise condemns
    yet Blessings come full circle and stems
    'naturally' from Sacred seeds also totems.

    The whole verse is totally beautiful
    Wonderful crafting of words

  • I am so grateful to read this beautiful poem. It is deep and evocative and touching. Yes, I did ask for free verse, but one can not read this poem and know there was reason for it to be written. Stunning!

  • Oh my word!! What a beautiful job you did on this one!! I love it! There is something in this one...

    "Babes cry, echo from cradled heart
    in sight of my children, every part
    of me I see in them~ 'Pure' Art
    unblemished and untainted apart
    from outside outline of society's chart;
    I sing to them, 'Love' from the start."

    As beautiful as the author!!

    Best of luck in this contest!!

    and love

    Beautiful write, Desire. I liked the ending the best, especially the part of the blessings coming full circle. I think that holds a lot of truth, especially when it comes to family and friends. There's no greater gift than people having others in their lives. Good luck in the contest.
