Ambivaliss

Glistening to the wind, I run towards the sun.
Shirtless with bare feet, a rainbow and I meet. 
Flawlessly formed in my heart's perfection, 
Youthful arrogance is innocence, blissfully indirected.
Alluded to by facts, keep me hidden from myself. 
Ignorance leads blind eyes booking for plain health.
Living in context, lay metaphorical dreams; envisioned by imagery,
Silently sitting beneath a Japanese Maple tree.

I'm loving the way instead of listening, you are glistening to the wind....the play on words is exactly perfect when we try to describe the indescribable myths of ideals ..of youth, and our desperate searching for answers. I love this unusual little poem (If my interpretation is even close?). And while I'm here, I must thank you for liking my little attempt on society and it's foibles. Thank you very much for the honor :)

Thank you. Ambivaliss: The Mint-Mental Society is the name of my unpublished/incomplete book. That's the origin of this poem's title.
