You and I will walk Blenkeragh strand
and you will know the language of each stone
around the sea grave circle; you alone
of loves will hold bright water in your hand
and know what shadows know, my love of loves
strand gold mantled where suncloud moves.

    To know the language of stones, and to know what shadows know are some things that I want most of the poetry protagonists to know in my poems. I don't know if the knowledge you present is a heart or head issue. My protagonists would know in their hearts. I liked this poem. Visually, it's clear.

    Call me a hippy, but it's probably a spiritual knowledge. Thanks. :)

    Yes, I like your term better. That's what I meant. For me sometimes it's hard to use the term spiritual to describe my main characters to strangers, and be understood. It's living the haiku way in a nature witch fashion :-)
