*** I am always glad to be taunted by learning drive with you Debbie Guzzi,
thank you so much...

Is Beethoven's ensemble fairer than nature's psalms?
Amidst a crowning sun: ears and eyes are drugged,
drenched with tender notes, orchestrated by greens,
inhale deep, the aromatic blossoms from the vine

with their lilting swell, brushed shades of fine wine.
Listen, listen to the sudden leap, the vibrato of bird song
or the raucous winds rubbing against house-corners
and the blithering brook carrying tales of who?

As you walk attuned to the crunch of the brown foliage.
When the cobalt skies turn to ash - gray mode,
hear heaven's vault lament, drizzling sobs to loud weeps
when day's face in angst pout or blush beside the beloved.

Feel your feet push or pull deluged by the liquid fingers
of the sea; in whites, they murmur ripples. They tremble
and stir, savor the flavor, a brief interlude:

Nature's power: tones, sharps, curls, pants. It slants
aiming to reach a rest upon blues of sky at its zenith,
The darting patterns curves, verves are diapered
wanting to delight, to wonder, to shock, to soothe.

This poem was innovative, captivating, sad and three dimensional in character. Your emotions took stage and treated the reader to a glimpse of your poetic soul and a peek at your heart. Your words float within our conscious minds and land gently upon the page. Emile.

You have painted a most beautiful picture with the words you have chosen. I must admit l'm envious of your ability to describe beauty. I clearly need more practice. Very well written.
