Delve deep into my darkness
Ravage relentless with your need
Drench me till I harvest
And for my bounty plead
Burst berries on my hollow buds
Quench me with your nectar
Show me softly, full with love
And relinquish my endeavour
Orchestrate my crescendo
Like the lighting of a fire
Watch me burn and blaze and grow
And inhale me with desire
Savour sacred scars we made
From heat and earth and stone
Play melodies that will never fade
And call them my welcome home

An astounding read Sylvia - a poet's poem and full of metaphored power - - thanks a load for this first rate writing and into my favourites to savour again.
You always see the things I don’t see, in the poems that I find hardest to let out...
Thank you Fay
These words could not have been placed or stacked any better than they are stacked and placed here today...
and without doubt, one to remember...... Neville
And you know I wasn’t that happy with it?
I missed off my thank you 🙏
