Velvety mystifying
dispelling
spurging's of faith

Time well spent
as sleeping embers dissolve
within love's
uplifting embrace.

"It is an ancient story
Yet is ever new"

A spurge is a noxious toxic weed or shrub, with a bitter milky juice that has purgative properties.

How do you relate your thoughts to this poem here, my Pearlty?

Hi Mirage,
I think as the definition states "purging" is the key word. I feel the poem at the time reflected out with the old, and in with the new towards more positive-kind feelings and thinking. Encouraging the natural order..letting things flow.

Living,
Is something,
But love uplifts and brings everything to faces,
Embers,
Disappear and snow melts in water,
In the embrace of love,
We must be patient,
Isn't this the message??

Yes Queen, that's a wonderfully insightful description of the message felt when I wrote this. Many little short thoughts/poems like this one, often are simply when I wake up I scribble something in my journal, whether those first thoughts of the morning are remnants from dream, or deriving from the day before, or happenings toward the day to come.

Uplifting as awakening. Sleeping embers awakened to be dissolved, awakened to a higher state of self, where fire has another face. This is how I feel the words.

Your insight made me restructure the interpretation to make it look like a poem.. You truly must have someone inspiring in your life to make you write so beautifully ..

Ayelet, you felt the words perfectly!

queen, your restructure was beautiful, it's magical when poems have a way of making the trickle effect happen towards greater meaning.

As for inspiration, I've been lucky but more than that- I've been thankful.
