Faces of the variegated clouds

Faces of the variegated clouds 

The motley clouds’

erratic montage swirls ,

muddling the melancholy ashen

summer morn’s dappled sunlight 

eyes drawn forth skyward , 

for his spirit sought 

a higher passionate light 

whence there was none 

at hand a pensiveness ascending

jasmine’s fragrant enchantment

wafting a requiting reminder

through cracked open windowsill

within this forlorn darkness

bestirs a subtle

morphosis of light ~ ~

a wistful moment levitates ;

estranged . . .                                                       

by unraveling sensibilities ,

              premonition rousing nebulous faces 

                                                          in the clouds' swirl

some days ,..                 

alone is something to be

these days ,..                  

 alone is nothing to be . . .

A Poet is a Vessel

when poetry moves me, every once in a while when I'm feeling my senses manipulated by words, I want to sit back and enjoy the view in my mind contemplating where you've journeyed, who you are and what is behind "your" creative conceptions

 ... an awakening moment’s visage of a poet / poetess

A Poet is a Vessel

A poet is a wistfully musing vessel
free flowing creative conduit
burgeoning voluble word artistry
adducing the vast symmetry
beget the universe

artisan fountainhead’s inception in motion
emitting poetic passion; vestage of life journey
oracle gushing, pulsing through written heart
creativity melded and cast in crucible
wellspring cosmic heart and soul

" exemplum" incarnated
from within flesh sheathing
flourishing with rhythm and beauty ,
blossoming forth
~ the medium of poetry ~

Summertime's blissful song ...(10w)

Ecstatic bird songs

enrapture 

boundless mirth

resonating 

   throughout the heavens . . .

Note:

the Violet-green Swallows left their nest boxes this morning,
July 15th, 2014...the exact date they flew free last year;
the synchronicity of the universe is enlightening.
