living now open as I do
unfurled and belling parachute
or compound sunflower
wide and waiting to ripen
hard to mistake
flaming silk or framing petals
billowing or nodding with wind
for something other than readiness
rooted or sailing, I will
coast to touch down,
or ease into bloom
my face following the sun honestly
while heart enacts wind
Like this one lots, the wording feels just right.
Thanks, Nelle 🙂 I wanted to see if I could mix these metaphors with conviction…
nice one! sun flowers smile at the open skies, waving in full bloom….difficult to concern those smiles!
yes, impossible to hide 🙂
difficult to conceal those smiles…I meant to say but my stammering fingers undid me!
Hey–remember, we like those stammering fingertips that tell all. I kind of like the idea of having a smile that is difficult to concern…sounds quite poetic!
I love that your heart is the producing of wind, movement and melody toward sunlight ! Lovely ~Thank you Friend ~`Deb
Thank you, Deb!
