Harvesting poetry from the tree of humankind

Refreshed perspective gather words

 like ocean riptides gather the rivers’ flow - -

repurposing back-eddies , 

rejuvenation of stagnant brackish waters , 

inherent soul-shine purging 

from the ancient core of earth mother 

Light arising from the depths of inner stillness

as if a refilling wellspring burst forth , 

reawakening muted sighs too deep for words , 

forming poetic constellations 

to lighten afar the nebulous darkness ,

like a sea of ink transformed into poetry 

A sage opus renewed 

by the muse of a migrating flock ,

striving to discover new sacred grounds 

yet there is an undeniable song sung 

in the howling winds of change 

an incitement from a higher dialect 

that empowers a restoration of the spirit ,

oeuvre uplifted by rogue waves of wind 

arousing that which time erases

A renaissance manifest 

among the rousing nuances 

of poetic continuum ,

judicious to rediscover 

the enthralling vastitude 

of every breaking wave 

in a boundless sea of poesy

Where prevailing currents 

stir oceans of verse eternal ;

provoking verve revival ,

the magnitude of an unbroken circle ,

ocean swells merging oneness 

with the omnipresent colour 

of uncharted depths 

As if thoughts are assuaged 

by a union of touching souls 

in intangible realms , 

sparking subtle shades of meaning

spanning poetic immortality , 

transcending barriers of unexplored lexicon 

to manifest the immensity, 

enkindling rhapsody of hearts and minds

  

Deeply rooted soul replenishment 

harvested from the tree of humankind ,

willingly sharing without regret ,

enabling an enlightening metamorphosis 

of the human journey ...
