Pieces Of Pisces

Pieces of Pisces

Wiser now..
I watch the surface
while
all the melted laughter
fades
from your voice
anxiety
fills the muted shadows
draws
the chilling deep
from
the light
of
your love
grown sleepy and heavy
in the twilight of your interest

storyline! you told the story well and clearly. I could see the player losing interest in his paramour, and she saw it too! The poem flowed well, the words were well thought out and it made sense. Great work! ~ Gee

Pisces is a sign ascribed to ''FISH''

Have you ever observed?
how fish swim in a pool
and
then just half way,
turn around without reaching their goal
that's what Pisceans do,
they come along in pieces with you

But are they serious?
One can't say,
they will do
what they want to
with you.

Nice poem yours...

loved

Yes, I have observed those finney critters swim, LOL!

I was born on february 18th, the cusp of Aquarius and Pisces. So I often feel like a fish with someone pouring water on my head in my fish tank, LOL! Trying to swim in two dirrections at once.

always, Cat (the other fish is eddy)

I knew this was about what you were feeling!

just from the way you wrote

marvelous poem
well written well paced
and great insight about
the love

How true anxiety
clouds up like little clouds
"Bills" "Health" "idiosyncratic annoyances"
Like all living things needed attention
we are not islands and yet our trade
between each other sometimes fades
One cannot just have an attendant fish
alone ...there must be fair equal trade!!!

One must reach to hold a palm against
theirs As do the very young and too the
aged with their histories t heir comfort
We wall up with pride
as we wan in our twilight

I fight it allways
I see the beauty in t he faces
hear the vigour in the poetic voice
vitality in experience
we are still the youth experience
inside that craved and craves the
touch of recognition and tender
heartdrawn crushs of trade
We have come to know age as
an old freind
a travelling companion
and never a dull moment!!

Thank You

Ooh, loved this, everything smoothly slid into the right places here as I read. Lovely balance and choices in these words..
I was going to choose a favourite section, & couldn't!! All of it too good to leave any out, in my opinion!

Cheers A
