Question: A poem!.!.!.will you read and comment!?
A sightless hunter ascends the horizon's arch!.
There he does not shoot blind,the arrow knows his heart
Which like another eye beholds hid dream's design
Ride from shadows therein onto earth's craggy spine!.
Heart pierced, she clings to her wilfull horse now,
Whose hoofbeats sound a granite labyrinth below
Where air is old and seldom speaks,but sings at night!.
Slow they move!. like smoke through sheets of light
And through the darknesses between, seen then unseen-
Her captured heart bringing the arrow home again!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Passion!. Pain!. The word that encompasses both of those!. Love!. It runs rife throughout this, staining every syllable!. But I wonder, are our arrows ever as sharp and as pure as Cupid's!? Is the love we create for ourselves in the granite labyrinth what awaits us in the divine!. When we return the arrow, will the shaft have lost its straightness, and the razor its intensity!? When we love in return!.!.!.is it more blessed or dangerous!?
Thank you for this beautiful poem, and for these beautiful questions that now spill into my mind!. Blessed evening to you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
It is exasperatingly delightful gorgeous pure poetry!. And I say this from a poet to a poet!. It reminds me of dear Shakespeare, and that is a great compliment beyond your imagination because Shakespeare was a highly sophisticated man that produced wonderful poetry!. His poetry and works of art inspires many beings still to this day!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
