She wasn't taller than her doll-house.
She was still writing to Santa Claus.
Dark curly hair and wide open eyes
she piously kneeled piercing the skies.

Beautiful poem, Maddalena! Congrats on having it finally chosen as member poem of the day!
This is a mystical poem in which love is lifted out of the sensory world to the World of the Spirit or the Spiritual. It's amazing how an art as sensory and sensual as poetry has also served the needs of ascetics and other spiritual seekers. But it does as countless mystic poets have shown. This poem has a heightened tone, an almost breathless intensity, and an utter confidence that there is a cosmic Mind that hears these pledges of service and sacrifice. You made this young woman very real to me. And I can only hope that her real-life counterpart succeeds in attaining the spiritual life.
My wonderful Professor / Poet / Friend, thank you for being YOU, for understanding me and loving my humble poems...
She opened her bud, her thorns she killed only in that moment of fate when she met the Evening Star...the same very wild thorns that brought bleeding to her many foes. Every wild Rose wants to be picked and breathed by the only one, the loved one. Every wild Rose wants to punish the daring hands of the greedy arrogant silly lovers. This poem speaks volumes to me about a fight between the divine and worldly love
...She opened her bud, her thorns she killed, ....divine or satanic know not clearly but she uttered boldly.....appreciate.
Maddalena, my friend! I haven't talked with you for a while! I have commented on this poem before, but I had to come back and read it again. I am going to mention it in my Puzzle Master Quiz 050, to be posted the day after tomorrow.
