We Will Live Forever...

To my everlasting Love... You know who You are.



One of THE most beautiful films and scores in years, The Fountain by Clint Mansell
Film by Darren Aronofsky.

Ice Art

I have always loved ephemeral art made in nature, and I recently discovered Jim Denevan and his most recent work created on Lake Baikal in Siberia. He and his small team (including a documentarian and photographer) set off to the largest lake in the world to create a vast Fibonacci spiral of concentric circles, making the largest piece of artwork yet created on land. Amazingly they used only large brooms to make the circles, revealing beautiful geometric ice below.

To my surprise, the store Anthropologie commissioned Jim to do artwork for them, and that is where I found (and purchased) the book, Lake Baikal. For once I can say that now I don't feel as guilty for purchasing things there... they commission tons of artists, and so I tip my hat.

Water


What I know of water is this--

You are my lover
wrapping your large hands around me

You are deep--
cold,
You take no pity.

Pull me into your belly
It is this lovemaking I want:
something wreckless
I don't break so easy.

Pull me down,
into your undertow
tangle me inside your salty roots.

Then push me up toward that perfect blue sky
Save me.

your soft liquid orgasm.

Wind and Fields

June heat wraps its thick tongue 'round our shoulders, and
nearer to the thick of summer we come,
our heated souls wandering.

Fields are for love-
and for flowers
and wind comes in and reminds us
all things tamed are really not so. Undo the latch,
pretty flowers
let the wind take you too,
as a good lover should.

Moods

Lately I am in love with all things Moroccan... the open airiness of large rooms and intricate details. Textiles, metal, color. Such an old world mystery in the modern world.

I love the organic feel of this room, with a tree growing indoors...

Cinnamon

***

Cinnamon is in your blood,

like a hint of madness, turned
sexy.

Do you remember the time we drove passed
the red rocks and into the trees--
loving you
was all I needed

And hints of you now,
in the sheets
on the back patio- wind

and your name
inside
my tongue
forever.


-Lara Coscia

To my Beloved

{Poem to Myself on Valentine's Day}

I must admit it was a surprise, I never expected it to be you--
and yet time's passed-- some have come and gone
but here you are, yes you.

And so I declare, I will love you with truth,
and in times of changing too
for you are the most important love,

never alone, no
rather anew.

Let your hair down and get wild! Even if alone in the kitchen with some rose petals and a vintage dress just for you...
Write yourself a love poem, will you?

Masquerade Please

Here is my idea for a wonderful Valentine's weekend- to host a masqerade ball in an old dilapidated castle, with winding staircases and candle lit halls. To escape in the splendor of the old world, with grand lavish dresses and secret passageways...

Think of me...

Blowing in the New Year

Wind

Like wind, sometimes we are blown into the direction of sorrow-
loss perhaps,
or sickness.

But a new year and a new wind,
perhaps a shade of pink.

Return to me
my lover
usher me into the sunlight
and the brush

Let my story come from here--
from this place of living.
