A Shift To Realism

Over the confines of the cliffs
in a cloud of crystalline haze
in the midst of a tsunami of whistling

skyline shadows in golden amber
hues ooze into the ocean
triumph against craving

waves of fairy spirits
Pearl stone sparkles in sundrops

flying is my passion
I'm diving again
in a wide chasm

sapphire knitting
chromium marble light

optimums prime
upheaval toward verisimilitude
you and my floating rhyme

with an increasing susurrus
a gentle melody is heard

tonal fuzziness
reverberations of rainbow hues
a scarlet choir of classic lullabies
