The shining blue and white

White enters inside,

the psyche is being blurred,

a tree's chalky smile...

Winter, I am here now,

mist roams midst my mind

shining blue is worn by sky.

The eyes follow truths

reach a garden. Lost Eden.

A white unicorn hops

over my nervous system.

Is it love I see

in the shadows around me?

Migratory birds

flying over the blue lake.

My hands touch hers.

Ahh, inside the gates of eden
Dylan's people often go
It's the place where mind meets surreal
And our awesome wonders show
Thank you Poddar for the poet you are
And for sharing us, your word
In going to and fro from Eden
They're some of the best I've ever heard.

very interesting imagist poetry
I hope you don't mind the word "imagist" that was the first word that came to mind.
I am going to post some more poems soon....

Hello :o),

I just wanted to stop by since I am finally going through what is now listed as under 4,000 pieces of gather new mail that is sitting in my inbox on here.

With that mentioned I just came across either a mailing from you yourself, or someone else brought this piece to my attention. You or they felt that your creation should be shared with the gather community, which I am very glad that it was passed on to me to view. So I wanted to say Thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to publish it here on gather for us to all view. :o)

As well before I leave you I wanted to wish you a Happy New Year... in 2009 :o)
