Wherefrom Enlightenment Dwells

To define innocence in the countenance of a child's smile and love's eminence in wildflowers, conceive infinity in exalted ocean's roar whilst summer breezes glance splendor flourishing jasmine and hummingbirds amidst evermore expansive sunrises, whence space and time ceases to exist thereupon shall enlightenment dwell

I imagined all the beautious things you described and it got me high. In a good way. Such imagery truly lifts me and you delivered an ultra serving of imagery. Breathtaking, Paloma. So is your new pic - is it Audrey again? "All I want is a room somewhere, far away from the cold night air ..." You know that, right? Love the poem, CayCay

Perhaps enlightenment exists in the spaces between our words which are immeasurable. I enjoyed your contemplative piece.
