Poetry Lane, A Literary Escape
A caressing arbor of petals and pines
will follow your lead
and then guide you
onto a daydream’s sprouting seed
Here, feelings twitter and coo like flighty birds
Breezes ride atop olive branches
burdened only by wiser words
Blossoms cling closely,
embracing away budding fears
Sunrises melt yesterday’s storms
warming solace for future years
Tears on treaded grass glisten
like freshly cut jewels
Hillsides hug, and babbling brooks
frolic like happy fools
Clouds humbly part ways
for a rainbow’s raised brow
suspicious of any doubt
of what a Vision can endow
A Butterfly Committee
welcomes the new arrival
of a shaky weakling leaf
and pen their presence by
spinning their silky yarns
fashioned by Faith
and Golden Years belief
The dizziness of freshly peeled zest
flavors the open-hearted air
Castles dub cottages highlighted havens
in a house-warmed town square
A flower may whimsically pick you
as a remembrance of an Age
Memories will drowsily awaken from their
rest atop a page
Sparks of passion whirl and twirl in flight
Like enamored fireflys in the night……..
Vines wind rugged passages
and are swayed back glory-bound
A wayside mist blooms a dusty field into
Morning’s holy ground
The Book Of Eternity is held open,
Its chapter never closes
We all come here from the same sacred sanctuary
as the buttercups
the bowing bluebells
the lavender sages
the majestic roses
And when comes time the read be over,
fear not the curious sounds of night
as the moon begins to swell,
They are merely the chimes of poets
wishing you a fond farewell~
