unwilling to define
this giddiness that leads me,
stumbling
like a woman drunk on air
or sunlight
instead of labeling
& analyzing
I would rather
be simply piloted
by it
& dance
with the line
that reels me,
in whatever direction
I am spun with it,
knowing you are
what turns me
& also certain
when I dream tonight in colors
it will be of you
Lovely. I especially like “when I dream tonight in colors it will be of you”. It reminded of the Yevtevsheno poem Colours: http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/colours-6/ – the idea of a loved one bringing colour to life or dreams is beautiful.
Steven–thank you so much for sharing that poem–it is beautiful!
This is beautiful, Susan. Dream in colors sings so loud and soft at the same time.
Thank you, Noel!
drunk with nature, on the word, and of the dream looks like a nice triangle to me. nicely done.
Thanks, Don, appreciate that!

Were but it so simple. I would rather also. Is something I need to work on…
Great Susan.
Thanks, Rhonda. Hard to turn off that logical portion of the self and simply be…
It is…but it can be difficult. Takes practice!
Darn it, Rhonda, you just nudged my muse again!
I LOVE when that happens!
check out the newest–you tripped off more emotional poetry–yeech!
I am a day ‘tripper’. π
I love the use of ‘colour’ in reference to relationship dynamics. Howie Day sings of it in Perfect Time of Day ‘let your colours collide…’ I so wish I wrote that one! Well done.
Thank you Nelle–glad you enjoyed my giddiness π
Quite beautiful, Susan. And dare I say, willfully romantic. Good on you.
Thank you so much, George. Like that phrase–willfully romantic π
