Sisters

She pours her Light with Generous Hand
Like water flowing from a living Stream,
Guiding Life while she Gracefully Stands
Upon the Horizon of Mortal Dreams,
Dancing in the Shimmering Glow,
Her Bounteous Grace full Springing
As All Creation, in flux and flow,
Heralds the Blessing her Smile is Bringing.

Her Subtle Shimmer in Gentle Hue
Caresses the Tranquil Cheek of Night,
Whispering Softness, Her Smile Subdues
The clamour bustling in Jubilant Light
Pouring from her Sister’s Smile;
Her own Song Peacefully Swelling,
As Starlight winks in Blissful Guile,
Their Secrets and Stories Serenely Telling.

Sisters Bound by Love and Life,
They Balance and Uphold,
Perpetually Spiraling in Joy and Strife,
As we walk in their Brilliance, Brave and Bold.
Sister Smiling Upon us All,
Watching and Eternally Knowing,
Through our Rise and Inevitable Fall,
Harmony within us is Patiently Growing.

~Morgan~

The Touch of Spring

Dance Spring upon the Darling Buds
That Nod in Quiet, Wintry Brooding,

Paint your Beauty upon each leaf,
Winter’s Touch At Last Precluding.

Spring Comes Softly
Amidst the Snows,
The Sparkling, Scintillating, Glittering Glows,
That Touch our Holidays with Frosty Cheer,
While we Gather round the Fire, Drawing Near
in Heart, in Spirit, in the Silence so Deep,
While our Memories Diligently Keep
Spring coming Softly
Amidst the Snows,
Smiling her Promise where Winter Bows.

Delicate Denouement – #Poetry of the #NaturalWorld

Spring

.

Spring is Reaching outward from the Narrow Confines of Winter,
Painting the barren starkness with Light, Bright Shades of Green,
Bold Viridian Blushing Fair,
Newly Born Spring throwing back her Hair;
Smiling in the Scintillating Light as the Robin Redbreast enters,
Perching on the Fragrant Arms of Yawning forsythia to Preen.

Golden Streaming Sunlight Caresses the Blossoms of Rosy Hue,
Perfume of Youth and Beauty Lilting Upon the Jocund Breeze,
Brash Auburn Disappearing,
Amidst Spring’s Renewal, Cheering;
Balmy Breeze Dances on Twilight’s Coyness, to Infuse,
Tranquility Surrendering to Captivate and Please.

Spring is Blushing in the early Shades of Dawn,
Robed in Supplication of Winter’s Mighty Braun,
Hearts Unfolding,
Paradise Beholding,
Breath of Lilac Poised upon Delicate Denouement.

.

Priestess of Spring

.

Mother of Earth Renewal,

Life Springing from her Gentle Hands,

Wealth of Intoxicating Verve

Around her falls like Emerald Sand.

Empress of Rejuvenation,

Youth and Beauty Flowering Fair,

Awakening those who Wait in Slumber

With Verdant Caresses Beyond Compare.

Priestess of Life Springing New,

Kiss of Balm upon her Lips,

Welcoming All who Welcome Her

As Time through Her Seasons Slip.

.

Herald of Spring

.

The Silver Light of Winter
Has Spread her Arms and Laid Her head
Upon the mantle of the Frozen earth
To Kiss the Birth of Spring Instead.

The Pearlescent Light of April
Sweetly Smiles over Waking fields,
Verdant greens within Her Hand,
As Flowing colours of Renewal She Wields.

The Balmy Glow of Springtime
Tenderly Laughs in Jocund Glee,
Embracing all of Life within
Her Ornate, Fragrant Tapestry.

The Space Beyond;

The Realm of Unknown;

Shadows cast upon the void of All that is Seen, Yet not Shown;

Echoes of the Silent past

Singing with the Cryptic Tongue of Time,

Enchantment Whispering of Diligent Rhyme;

Without Measure or Rhythm

Speak of all I don’t know,

Unheard dichotomy of an Intrinsic Show;

Arc of Visible Liquescent Sound

Dancing in the Glow of Night,

Spin your web Beyond these thoughts

Devouring All that was ever Unright

Talisman of Purest Pleasure

Play Your Temptation like Sweetest Treasure!

.

Brilliance Lending Illumination

Brilliance Lending Illumination,
Touching All that I See and Know,
Casting Shadow across Trepidation,
Transcending Spectacle, Masterful Show.
Time Spinning in the Echoing Hush,
Strokes the Hours of Listless Fear,
While Subtle Incantations Rush
Like Streaming Light, Enticing and Clear.

Hallowed Music of Creation,
Singing in the Vast Unknown,
Lyric flowing without Cessation,
Praising Perfection in Evidence Shown.
Diaphanous and Seraphic Song,
Whispering in the Expanse of Night,
Guiding me back where I Belong,
In Blazing, Glorious, Tranquil Light.

Spirit Reaching for Blessed Spirit,
Rhapsody of Harmonious Sound,
Whisper so my Soul may Hear it,
Wandering Lost, by Grace am Found.

I am She who Sings on the breeze

Through the delicate green tresses

Of my Sister Trees;

I am She who Waltzes upon the Shore

In Time with Eternity

Hand in hand with Lore;

I am the Whispering Hush of Night,

The Thunderous Splendour

Of New Morning’s Light;

I am the Waking Lavender Twilight,

Stillness Soothing through the

Soft Shifting Light;

I am the Herald of Seasons Turning,

I am the Fervor of Apollo’s Burning,

I am the Kiss of the Silent Stars

Glistening in the Sweet Heavens afar;

I am She who Gives Life,

Breathing Radiance and Mystery;

I am She who walked among

All Verdant History;

Pause and Listen to my Melodic Song!

Close your eyes,

Breathe Deep and Long,

To Know I am She

Who Sings Her Song for you,

Ever Tender,

Ever Passionate,

Timeless and True.

.

.

Thank You for these words that Sing from Your Spirit

Thank You, with Humility, that I endlessly Hear it!

Mother, Father, Sister, Brother,

You are The Source, Unmatched by Another!

~Morgan~

Tranquility Sings

On Mystical Wings,

Serenading o’er the Expansive shore,

Where Soliloquy Whispers

And Perception Plays

Among the Glistening Ethereal clay;

Tranquility Abides

Where Darkness hides,

Shifting through the breathless calm

As Reveries transpose the Hush

And Evening falls amidst the blush

Of Tranquility Whispering

of Ancient Lore,

While No one remembers ,

Nevermore.

Ocean of Time

Sweet River of Life

Sweep away

This Worry; This Strife

Delicate Splendour

Majestic and Fine

Sing Harmoniously

And Far Outshine

The Chaos we mere Mortals

Imbue;

Ever Present, Ever Shimmering

Intangible and True,

Sanctus Eleison

Life and Breath

River of Time

Ocean of Rest

Quiet 9

.

.

Amidst the winds of shapeless Time

Reason stands Mute

As Traitorous Rhyme

As countless eons wax and wane,

Beauty Surpassing

This Listless plane;

Time Alone Standing Testament

To all we Hinder and Represent,

Watching through the shifting shades

As battles ensue and Treasure fades.

Whispers of a Golden Shrine,

Tales lost on the wind of surfeit’s brine,

Roiling waves in the tempestuous sea

Of Emblazoned Sacred Harmony,

Calling us backward into all we

Once Knew;

Gently Reminding

Of what Speaks Ever True!

.

~Morgan~

Delicate and Strong,

Forgotten, not wrong,

Where all the words Transpose,

Where the Heart truly Knows;

Singing in Reverie,

Silence Transpiring,

Whispering sweetly of Unspoken lore,

Dancing in the Memory of Forevermore.

Listen in moments of Unhurried Pause,

Waiting,

Lingering,

Amidst the Eternal Cause

Of all that is and was, Once More

Entreating the Heart,

Quietly to Implore;

Wake!

Surrender!

Remember the days

Of Lush Tranquility among

The Sunsetting haze

Of Diligence and Creed,

Timelessly Dancing;

Taking Your Hand,

Ever Romancing;

Slip into Step,

Step Into Rhyme

Of All Once Remembered,

The Now unobserved Paradigm.

In the Spiraling Depths of Time,

Beyond the Chaos of Life Surrounding,

An Echo Peals,

Like Lark’s Song at Daytide,

Calling to All,

Singing for One.

.

.

In the Whirlwind of Autumnal Descent,

Falling like Auburn and Russet Tones, Dancing,

An Echo Tolls,

Falling like Auburn and Russet Tones, Dancing,

An Echo Tolls,

Like a distant bell, Heralding Hearts,

Entrancing All,

Ringing for One.

.

.

In the Hush of Midnight’s Magic,

Under the Caress of an Alluring Breeze,

An Echo Repeats,

Like the Cadence of a Summer Night,

Enticing All,

Whispering for One.

Writhing Spirals of ebon night

Entrance into a Tantric sight

Embellished within the Tapestry of my thoughts

Where rhythms Perch like daggers

Caught

Cascading in the ribbon of Seductive Night

Delirious trajectory Conforming

Contrite

Begging Forgiveness as the blade falls

Whispering Serration of Echoing calls

As I plummet through the Vast Unknown

What I once was; Now no longer Shown

Wings held close

Unutilized

Falling from Light

Paralyzed

Mesmerized

Chastised

Despised

Lost in the quicksilver Agony of Shame

Forgotten Pawn in an endless game.

.

This is a companion piece, written in response to Fall From Grace by Richard M. Ankers

Thank You Richard for the killer Inspiration 😉
