Like that
I have nothing to offer
but this
the fire of one soul
reaching out
to another
the spark
when two live wires
touch
I trace a shooting
star through the night
falling into
the dim light of
the eastern sky's rim
and I say
yes
like that
just like that
but this
the fire of one soul
reaching out
to another
the spark
when two live wires
touch
I trace a shooting
star through the night
falling into
the dim light of
the eastern sky's rim
and I say
yes
like that
just like that

The connection of this to all sentient beings (which we all are)is subtle and obvious in the same rush of lighted words.
Your spark, always brilliant, leaves me content to be ground!

Indeed - just like that.
I like the surprise element of the last few lines ... and as always, your use of language.
I love the "just like that." Falls perfectly into place.
nice!
What Leslee said. Perfect.
and that is enough...
as odd at this sounds, this piece reminds me of limp bizkit's song "just like this"...
electric, vital, powerful, memorable. your poetry never ceases to astound me. thank you!
There's something risky here, and I can't put my finger on it. Yes, it should be just like that, it should, clear of all encumberances, and just about the connection, its spark... sorry, I'm at work, gotta go. I do love the poem!
Astounding. A wonderful poem.
here is a connection i long for. beautiful and electric.
this paints a landscape in harmoney with with your inner self, a feeling of oneness with the earth and sky
Beautiful. Marvelous. Enchanting. Yes, just like that.
I like the strong directiness of this piece, MB.
My thanks to you all.
amazing piece of work! good job!
