Psithurism Interludes

Neville

Psithurism Interludes

 

One day perhaps

I want

and shall, invite

you, into

an open glass

fronted room

with ocean view

and you

will lay with me

there ..

On top of both

our hastily

discarded robes

and where

beneath a navy

spiralled,

Van Gogh sky ..

You may 

choose to watch

and feel

me resurrect

against

the backdrop

of a gentle and oh’

so rhythmic

psithurism ..

Both more than

merely

grateful to a very

welcome breeze ..

Yet still

keen to leave each

of those dead

and drying

orchestral leaves

outside

our deliciously

and deliberately,

unlocked open door ..

      It's all right for some folks having psithurisms! lol
      I've gone nutty - a course said - maybe people should be called 'person-technology hybrids'.
      Then it got dafter: 'This sofa could have its own personality'.
      They'll put me in padded cell soon, reading that rubbish!

        I can very easily arrange for bread & breakfast in such accommodation .. cheers 🙂

          Thank you, you PTH, you - that's person-technology hybrid. I thought things were a bit dotty, when the course author said 'Hi Fred' to the sofa (did he?). lol.
          Don't these people do any work, or are they in meetings all day, every day?!

          And - ya can't beat a bit of Greek!

        • L. B. Mek

          whispering to my poetic fate
          I summon what courage i have
          to express these feelings I cherish
          symmetry, in that ideal I seek
          between your steps within grace
          and my ambition to become
          that person in your life, entrusted
          with your joy and satisfaction,
          I won't be so bold as to guarantee
          I'll just invite you
          to share this dream with me
          and pray you'll afford me
          the opportunity to showcase
          this love for you, i carry
          encased in all the hope i can
          manifest, my dear
