You are the best, Shay, at writing this sort of thing.(..and in so many other ways.)Thanks for the courage it takes to dip the pen in this heart's ink and tell the tale so we all live and suffer through it together.hedgewitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13090696134322515899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107838361391025851.post-40840227050462116282012-04-21T12:18:32.104-04:002012-04-21T12:18:32.104-04:00"such clarity breaks the heart" and the ..."such clarity breaks the heart" and the rain calling to its sisters, who are "forever lost, without wings".

"Such c...Oh my, Shay. This is a moving piece.<br /><br />"Such clarity breaks the heart" ... So true.<br /><br />Love the imagery of the dragon calling to the angels, the darkness to the light, the earth to the rain ... as if they belong together, the one providing fire and firmness, the other offering moisture and delicacy.<br /><br />"but we will be melancholy knowing" ... The couterpart to "Ignorance is bliss."<br /><br />"calling to its sisters above,<br />forever lost, without wings,<br />like us" ... dragons, earth, rain, angels, all interconnected substances speaking without voices. What beautiful imagery.<br /><br />To me, this poem is a call to action for the senora: the speaker wants her to <i>see</i> the invisible. And it seems that she has seen, she does know, the sky has cleared, but she is now trapped in melancholy by the knowing. Everyone is wingless, and it might be better not to see that. You should just tell her NOT to see so that she can remain jaded and smiling. ;)<br /><br />rosemarymint.wordpress.com✿https://www.blogger.com/profile/01044032159371976375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107838361391025851.post-44394159075542443382012-04-21T09:49:43.502-04:002012-04-21T09:49:43.502-04:00What a bittersweet, melancholy poem.
