Peach orb softly smiling
Drops the skirt of pine and oak
Glides in slow dance
Into star-studded velvet
——————————————————————————
Sometimes the moon
Teases my thoughts
Awakens memories
Of the vastness of Life
Envelope of mystery
As broad as infinity
As intimate as my last breath
the beauty noticed
pierced his toughened armor
Allowing the brightness of Love
to stir his soul
On the road to some unknown dreaming…
Beauty peace and thrill
all plentiful-road stands
on familiar byways
Landscape speckled
with billboards of consciousness
selling truths
of a deep and meaningful nature
Experiences sprinkled
with meals spent with friends
and relatives on warm evenings
fed by the soul
Consider
the rose
even the most perfect
each petal
unique in its curl and turn
ruffled expression
Flaws glorified
by sweet aroma
and presentation
as part of the whole
All one in beauty
Rose
On the lone hillside
green going on for miles
the single massive oak
luxuriates in worship of the sun
toe roots buried deep
——–
To sit there in similar fashion
soak up the sun’s rays
buried in deep verdant velvet
at rainbow’s end?
No, it is the beginning…
