Between mind and heart
24 February 2016
The leaves in tight row
Bordered the alleys that wound
In between patches
Within my bosom clearings
Sat in toasty clusters of thought
Compact flowers shone
Sturdy milk white petunias
All cramped within pots
Tepid ideas roamed slow
In mind’s glowing flushed harbours
Warm winds blowing hard
Mixed petunias and green leaves
Left nothing untouched
Steady confusion of mind
Made patchwork of ideas
The dust riding fast
Sweaty summery playgrounds
Sweltering desert
Pieces in taut memories
Grew hot blizzard in my soul
The Earth cried out loud
She recognized not her pair
Earth and sky repelled
A heated debate ensued
Between rigid mind and heart
Reading of the poem:

Love this Geetha!
Oh, I wanted to ask you a technical question…. What do you use to record your voice, then post on here? Us it a particular website you go on? Or App? And are you able to post the links via the free site, or do you need to be in the paid one?
By the way, I am still trying to work out how to post fully via the reader!!!

There’s nothing tepid or rigid about anything you write. Just pure energy and emotion. Another great read.

Thank you Tosha, you’re such a darling and always so encouraging 🙂
Sometimes we do have some silly thoughts though we don’t allow them to persist in our minds, that was what I was referring to. Have a great day! Am off to work
