Birthday Glosa

If hands could free you, heart,
__Where would you fly?
Far, beyond every part
Of earth this running sky
Makes desolate? Would you cross
City and hill and sea,
__If hands could set you free?


~ Philip Larkin, If Hands Could Free You, Heart

If hands could free you, heart,
from drumless rhythms, oceans
or fragmented falls of rain,
all different, distant, yet the sound
the same, beating from miles apart.

The continent can not divide
the whisper of you, heart:
the tap of truth spoken one letter
at a time. If hands could free you
with the feathered power
of a rhyme, where would you fly?
What music would you paint
if song could fill your eye, recall
the scattered tears from far

beyond every part of prescience
to dimensions of child years
that catch each flake of hope
upon the tip of smiles.

Our compasses of earth,
this running sky, make desolate
the hourglass of past.
Where would you cross the hidden
line from first to last: heaven
and earth, city and hill and sea?

Where would you plant your dreams
if hands could set you free?

:heart:
 
Tess ... you are the angel
atop the tree, sweet party
cake and all poetry.

Nothing but warm hugs, best wishes,
and a day filled with happiness and love for you ~!!

Happy Birthday My Friend.

Ah, belle Tristesse, vous n'êtes pas triste!
...Soyez heureux sur votre anniversaire.
Vos poésies sont magnifiques,
...Et vous êtes une poétesse extraordinaire.


Happy birthday, Tess!

Poetry favours the Archer,
the Pleiades clustered in
the night. Seven sisters;
benificient bestowers
of artistic bent and mayhap
even talent?

I wish you a clear night,
a clear conscience
and a clear mind.

Happy birthday Poet-tess.
 
Okay, where's this cake I'm supposed to jump out of? :D

um, sorry I ate the cake.... :eek:
and then Tess limps in and asks what happened to the guy who's suppose to jump out of the cake. her only answer is a faint burp from the corner of the room where anna sits--looking quite satisfied and a little green.
 
Ohhh Tris! I missed it! So sorry, sweety.

But I still wish you a Happy Day, and as many more birthdays as you want, and none that you don't!

:kiss: :rose:

Thank you, Man Ray, for the kind thought but I’m certainly not the “bestest” poetess by a long way although I do feel the luckiest when I come in and see this thread.

Thank you all, coming home to this is like having another birthday.

:rose: :)
 
Tess, Happy Birthday honey. i hope you had a wonderful special day and that your year ahead is filled with achieved dreams.
