All life is motion compelled to move;
you and I, we must move too
even in apparent stillness
our atoms vibrate
past vision and all senses, rearranging with
the simple harmonic motion of elements,
the inner rotation of the subatomic
like mirrored, miniature solar systems
the shift of season into season,
the pulls tides answer, and strokes of waves
all singing life
every motion has brought us
closer to this motion today
where we move in unison
your voice in mine and
mine in yours
your tongue vibrates, feels
and feeds my throat motion;
fluttering, trembling, all kinetic and stirring
and we move, the rhythm of us a motion
born of force and attraction
by polarities that pull
create this swirl, tremulous gyrations, vibrating, oscillating
where merging in vertical and horizontal flows
we reach forward and beyond
with hastening speed
and now, with vectors charting
direction, force and magnitude
this joined velocity singing and ringing
still accelerating, celebrating
the influx and efflux of creativity,
its season of release
***Whew. Hope you enjoyed that as much as we did. I’m italicized and Noel is bolded.
Ahem…no words. (Course, tongue is hanging out and drooling that could be why.)
Wow…all I can manage. Oh and maybe a Yum. I could go on with these three letter words but I’ll spare you. BRAVO you two.

A little short on syllables myself, R. Thanks…
like like and like… heat is palpable here
Thank you–still a little warm after writing it 🙂
I bet 🙂
Nice one… what so fascinates me is how the further science explores, the more it seems matter is not at all as we believe it to be, but energy based, intangible on a sub-atomic level.
Thanks so much Nelle!
Nicely written Susan
THhnks so much Dewey–my lab partner, Noel, and I thank you 🙂
You two make a great poetic duets
Thanks so much, Ian.
