Poetry Thursday February 22, 2007: The Body Knows
The Body Knows:
Ice-cube hands
Body on overdrive
Night-time insomnia
Too much tea
Hand-warming mudras
Quiet reflection
Conscious awareness
Lips no longer dry

Hey - I was wondering when you were going to post another poem! I admire your ability to convey feelings/thoughts succinctly like that. I like short poems, you can absorb them in one bite, one breath; and then read them again. I have a bad tendancy of rambling on. For some reason the bit about ice cubes and dry lips has reminded me that I'm thirsty.
I love the first and last lines. There is a connection there.
I especially liked "ice-cube hands" Nice poem.
I can relate. So short but loaded with meaning.
the last line is very nicely evocative.
"Too much tea" resonated with me.
Everyline really spoke to me. This may have been short but very powerful. It moved me a lot. A pleasure to read.
The picture actually helped a lot! I love the short lines, which make for snapshot images. Good poem.
