Portal of Green

It has been a while
Time is on my side, lying
to me again
with its toxic fruits
which turns us into
dying super-human

Why is the gate so close, yet closed?
Is that the significance of hell?
The hell it is
lying beside me
with its wild wild scent
Natural perfume go places
while I am here, singing
a green green song to the desert
and open my sleepy eyes
Free green for everyone, on sale
only today

Ayelet!!! I spent an entire hour going over, and over, and over your poem around 1am this morning. I left to let it percolate overnight.

Oh! ~~ what you DO to me?

I didn't know if you meant your poem in the context of a sad way, or is it a 'wild-scent' sexy kind of way? ....

Which one does it BE?

This was the song I was going to choose... Your Portal Green place in the Land of Delights. Be Healed, Be soothed. It's oasis for the deserts of your life and memories-past.

Thank you for your comments!

Mirage, it can be interpreted either way, though I don't think it is such a sad poem. It is searching, and I write things as they are.
I didn't succeed to hear the song... ):
Thank you, Mirage, for giving it so much of your time!

I write about a gate that is close to me, yet is closed. And I put hell inside the pot. So yea, you could see sadness in it. I am merely reflecting my search. It may be sad, or fact.

{{ }} I fervently wish that for you, Ayelet!... May your visions come down and manifest themselves for you in Real and earthen-form.

I remember how important and Holy you said that the realm of Friendships are to you. You deserve to Find what you search and long for in your inner-most being---

/e {shortened a long description}
I had had a dream-ecstasy experience once [e.o.'79/80] that involved entering a metal decorative Gate.
/e [You mentioned the 'gateway' in your poem. My dream here was a 'gate' where I entered and found that Love is the glue that holds each molecule together.]

Shades of Hurting Hells expressed in song for you...

[/e Weather storm I stopped for (before proofreading and editing this post) was quite strong... A community just north of us sustained a lot of damage to trees, and some power outtages. e/6-23]

Thank you Faith and Mirage

Mirage, your experience sounds very special. I wish for you too to find your happiness, if you haven't found it yet!
I have wishes which I can't have, but it doesn't mean I won't find my way eventually.

Thanks Ayelet
I understand your gloom, and stasis. I can relate.

That was a special dream I had, but came during a period of time when I needed to believe that the world and the people in it weren't as 'ugly' as they appeared to be. I was moving through a period of cruel betrayals (I wasn't fully aware was happening, but soon would be.)

God sorts things and people out.... He does.

Keep Believing Things Are Possible, Ayelet... (or gosh, we may both get depressed here again!! oh nooooooo.)

Hello Mirage ...

There is one wish I can never have. Besides that, many things are possible...

Take care and never be gloomy
