"B" Side


It started with a pin point light and the smell of juniper berries
A warm wash of sand and sea water, irrigation for the soul
Growing, golem sized glow, coupled with the tink and tank of piano
And the sweet taste of honeyed almonds roasted over a hearts desire

Oh wow….there she is my sister dear
More beautiful from this diet of primordial soup
Spanning  the “It” with a universal smile and swagger
Tending the garden, mulching dreams for those not yet departed
Cueing up music that builds thoughts and shapes bosoms
Music from the “B” side

  1. How lucky you are to have seen her this way. How lucky we are to read your recollection, which stimulates all senses and prompts an inward look. Deep and wondrous, Corey.

  2. I love this and so would she ;D
    I love these lines:

    "It started with a pin point light and the smell of juniper berries
    A warm wash of sand and sea water, irrigation for the soul"

    and

    "Tending the garden, mulching dreams for those not yet departed
    Cueing up music that builds thoughts and shapes bosoms
    Music from the “B” side"

    Wow I love how you make words dance :D

    Thank you Corey for brightening my day!

  8. Beautiful recollections of an unique soul. I love the idea of her tending a garden of dreams for those not yet departed - such a caring image. The B-Side has merits of its own.
