half-spaces

Within two half-spaces of a winter's night
where stars cross and run to find the love of a silver moon,
a wind echoes
and
falls into blue breathless spaces.
Between the sigh of a snowflake
and the flow of words that are somehow silent,
my heart gently caresses your face.in an icelandic timeline.
Ribbons of colour dance across the night sky
as poets breathe
and
words tumble from my soul into the flight of night time stars.
Walking from the edge of dreams
to follow the ribbon of moecules that lead to an echo of your voice,
I slow my steps
and find your footfall amidst the rocks and shells along the edge of a snow laden beach,
The winter wind caresses the sky in the blue of your eyes
as stars find their way to the beginning and back
then forward
only
to hesitate within the in-between time.
The snow falls on the blackness of your woolen coat as my
smile chases
the sound around us
finding itself back to the closeness of your breath.
The wind hurdles itself like a lover onto the rocks and the sea
while
seagulls wake into a sky that is caught between day and night.
Confused by snow-laden currents of the sea wind
and
by
compositions that play between and through us in one still night-moment,
seagulls cry into the sky
and follow the colours of the dance into the heart of the moon..
A violin of sadness,
a violin of song,
a violin of joy,
a violin of love
echoes across an iceland timeline
to the edge of the smile in your eyes. ,
From the stars that find the wings of seagulls
to your world that became mine,
my heart still.
hopelessly in love with a far away moment
within the blue of an icelandic timeline;
a murumur of your smile..

What a journey this takes you
What a journey this takes you on. Everything is mixed yet undiluted; doubled. Beautiful writing.
