Talented Poetry

Upon canvas of cerulean skies

Dawn paints her gold meandering mist

Of tranquil passion purity.

Melody of sight and sound

Washes through the twilight

Of my waking dreams.

Destiny calls

Me from sleep

Softly,

Sure.

Rise

Once more

To touch the

Chalice of life

To lips singing praise

Through anxious auras in

Anticipation of new

Clarity of mind and spirit.

Savoring momentary embers

Beckoning me breath deep another day.

Talented poetry spilling from the sky

Dancing in the twilight of my minds eye.

Ghastly news for the muse chasing the storm

Grasping template and topic and meter and form.


Swirling, while whirling in foggy fright.

Depths of depression won't give up the fight.

Screaming in silence the words quite amiss

Spoken in anger and sealed with a kiss.


Caressing the corners of body and soul.

Hoping the hopeless will halfway be whole.

Voices of reason? I doubt they exist!

Calling for dreamers to cease and desist.


So asleep in my daydreams I grasp quill or pen,

Lean close to the paper like twinkling tin.

Catching talented poetry spilling from the sky

Dancing in the twilight of my minds eye.
