Symbolic Scribbles Series #011-1
Last series #010-1 left us standing in the bay with @Jozef Cain while this series will feature @SylviA 🌞 KalinA in reply
Remember the joy of receiving a handwritten note or letter? 'Symbolic Scribbles Series' rekindles that magic, creating a space for poetic symbolic 'scribbles' where meaning hides in metaphors and symbols, waiting to be discovered. Each poem builds upon the last, like a literary game of telephone, where interpretations can twist and turn in unexpected ways.
Guidelines: Poems should be at least 60 words and use rich symbolism and metaphor
To join the letter chain, send your symbolic scribble to the most recent featured poem by emailing noxartlab@gmail.com or messaging

he stands still as the world turns waves crashing wind burns eyes closed hearing her breath reminding him ...to breathe seething at the mouth but he stands at bay ...in the bay keeping the beast at bay letting the ship chart it's course the land will find him and she will be on the seaside singing her song waiting with her roots in the aether firmament earth sea breath fire love ©2025 Jozef Cain

The firmament seeps sounds of breath songs Raining stormy fervor frenzy sliding against this Canvas of mine painted in your saturated mutterings Wakings, indigo hands cupping my curving spine My thighs, your dusky amethyst hush slicing the twilight Open, --vox animae meae ad te-- umber murmurations Forming incanting echoes my body forward footfall Trance-- gravitational pull anchoring directing My soul Accipio te in spiritu I receive you, your breathing a Bond a flame stirring --rising wake trailing comet Tail foretelling --te sentio--veni ad me-- I go to you Flame of flame [gemini union] one blaze conjunction Consecrated pouring of salt and sea aether blessing --Sublimatio-- sacred sensations rooted baptismal Apana energies revitalizing anahata, triad trinity eye Awakening, Ida, Pingala intertwining spiral spinal pillars Panchamakara The air stirs, thick briny scent residues lingering Tremor’d ripples phantom blurred shifts of sea sprays Pulsing against seagull call and whippoorwill hauntings Seductive song spells unwoven, Lapis Philosophorum His tongue glides over his lips savouring the flavour Fire tapestried patterns flicker within midnight’s Chamber--while a siren’s call wailing--thrills his spine-- Straightening, the curling residuals of ghost smoke kissing fog Heat and desire Desire and dream —sylvia ©2025 SylviA 🌞 KalinA
