Blessed Moments

As night sleeps gold streaks undisturbedly passive wake
     An accordion of yellow feathers flutters dealt reflectively
          Breathless swallows delight as robins and wrens chorale
               A predawn daystar orchestrates to a climbing crescendo
Anointing a blessed living world of a sacrosanct promise
     Openers aimed buds to blossom amid a trail of rainbows
          Revitalized by a predawn splashing of persevering dews
               An array of augmenting colors gifting aura infused drifts
Lush verdancy sprawls into a meadow's margining a lea
     Eucalyptus trees edge a country path curiosity satisfies
          Inquisitive eyes passing glance in unpretentious regard
               Countenance lavishly smiles into pleasurable exchange
A solar star danced into a zenith reach steadies a noon
     Lunch crowds seal the opened sidewalk cafes parasols
          Casual discourse with the usual peals of warm laughter
               After hours armed-held couples dazzles an empty park
Gatherings command a garden gazebo as a band plays 
     A cue of kids bid a hotdog stand and an ice cream cart
          A fatigued sun blinks dealt an oranged squirt fan skies
               Napped kids held, couples snuggle, and pets tethered
The undressed star unsettled by lunas spotlight hides
     Town mulls the well-dressed candlelit ambiance mass
          As dotted home lights flicker off to aglowed fireplaces
               Lunar star promptly enters a zenith reach into twilight.

Vijay Pandit February 25, 2022 at 4:50 AM Much vibrancy to your lovely day, William. Great exuberance you convey through your words. I have to pause and think for both you and Lassad adopted new names. William Kelii Kekaula February 25, 2022 at 9:17 AM You're right! Vijay, we both changed with mines reflecting my hometown, whereto, fellow poetess Connie Marcum Wong can identify being a resident of the islands. I'm uncertain about Lasaad's referencing, hope to ask him soon, Aloha! Vijay Pandit February 25, 2022 at 6:07 AM I corrected my error--William! William Kelii Kekaula February 25, 2022 at 5:25 AM The writing was on the walls, methinks deservingly so, Vijay, touche my friend, and my appreciation nonetheless, Aloha~William!
