Emerald Waters
Within My Loden World
Through Loden I peer Onto vastness, ever changing Amongst sage havens Protected by the fierce howling Calmed by the raging blind wind Calmed by a tormented Sea Through Loden I stride Hearing that whose source unknown... Finds me Feeds me Foals me And sometimes fails me And yet I follow her Through Loden I pretend And my steady hand falters As focus drifts by Like a pregnant cloud Who is only a wisp She kisses my skin And taps my bare shoulder Vulnerable yet forgiven Through Loden will truth find me? Does innocence hide me? Does that which is missing Lead me astray? Is jade a color only? Or jaded, is my innocence Stroked by calloused hands? Through Loden I flourish Waltzing first And suddenly within a dream Within his arms The world never existed If I never awoke I would gladly stay Forever in that moment For I am her melody I am her soul Through Loden my image is reflected Forbid that time should overcome me... In this game of chess we play Over murky water but still... Bubbles of life are floating Which I taste and fill my lungs Through Loden Moss too, is frail Upon its bed I lie Cool and moist and living Molding to my curves Sculpted by tiny beings I wonder if they too Question themselves ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By definition, Loden is a particular shade of green. It is named after a water resistant woolen fabric used in Bavaria for capes and jackets. It is not as murky as a forest green, but has more moss to it. It is my favorite green; rich, fragrant, and the one I like most reflected in my eyes. Why, you ask? Because it reminds me of the verdant force within me. Emerald Waters is worn by those of us who feel poetry; for it is not the words themselves that are important, but how they make you feel when you are reading them.
