Beyond Compare

Sol sheds scarlet tears from His chariot of gold. And slips off the Earth’s edge to explore depths untold. Silver clouds hover low their bellies painted red. And palm trees gently sway as the day’s put to bed. Warm breezes trade their heat for cooling breaths of air. And gilded waves flaunt a beauty beyond compare. Ocean tides rise and ebb, rippling in the moonlight. And an indigo sky morphs into dark of night. Silence scolds, laughing waves splashing against the shore. And evokes a feeling that the French call amour. A taste of paradise where time and space standstill. And lingering hopes give romantic hearts a thrill. 1/19/2015
