I Hear You… ~a poem by Linda Willows

OgirlmusicfSfylwia-Makris

I hear you in the silence of…
sweet dreams of mine, that whisper Love,
in the night time of my breath,
the very mist of light and death.

I hear your heartbeat in my own…
strong, revered, as though one known,
sounded in the chambers of
my soul’s entire, here and above.

  5. This is beautiful in more ways than there are words, Linda. It is tender and filled with the wonder of silences. If we are truly blessed, there comes a time when the world grows quiet, and the only thing left is your heart. What a beautiful voice yours has. ~ Love, Bobbie

  10. Yes, indeed there is one other listening, as you listen, and the echoes reverberate, as two separate ripples meet in the water. This poem is deep with emotion and beauty, Linda. Love, Dee

  13. I loved this poem LInda – ‘the chambers of my soul”… and I love how it evoked that intimate blissful tenderness of communion, the sense of being permeated by the All That, the Presence that is an integral part of every thought and every feeling and every atom… Is.
    Your poem brought all this back into focus for me, thank you Linda

    January 20, 2013 at 8:01 pm

    • Oh Valerie, so glad to hear your beautiful words of spirit and heart. I feel such closeness to you, as ever…Linda

    YOU are so beautiful Linda; the words are you. It feels like you are moving into the light with these words. Are you well? You make transition so beautiful.

    January 21, 2013 at 7:28 am

    • Love you so dearly, Yaz….surely transitions, surrender of what is “no longer the gain of that most refined and golden Will, highest Love served and so gratefully honored” is a journey of acceptance, courage, faith, and deep healing which allows a Turning of all of self, life and affairs to the outcome of the Divine. This is surely Love at work, and joy in the dance of it all…..Linda

  15. I feel this way about my new grandson…in my dreams I can actually hear him breathe…its a beautiful thing. Thank you for sharing this lovely poem.

    What beautiful thoughts one gathers reading your words….
