Brewed

It is in the blowing of winds and thoughts-
In the Fragments of coherence. 
Beauty swings. Laughter slides.
The sun-tanned sands of time crawl
In metaphorical rhythm. 
Meaning floats like a dawn-lingering fog. 
Damp yet almost non-existent. Gentle yet 
At times blurring. 
I wonder about anything and everything- childishly curious.
Playgrounds. 
Streets that extend in front of my eyes like 
Darkness at midnight. 
A blend of happenings.
A welding of perception. 
A farrago of senselessness. 
I am compelled to question every word 
That comes to mind
And then follow this uncertainty 
By inquisitive  why’s. 
Wings flutter. Shadows reflect on opposite surfaces.
Distances. One might think of speed. 
Time.
The ever-turning carousel-
Time...
Red freckles that eventually sink into the wrinkled 
Oceans of time. 
Time that brings with it only more time...
Clocks that tick..
Bells that chime... 
Smiles..voices..
Mishappenings and rhyme 
That only add to the dusty 
Contents of memory.

no wonder you stoped writing who can top this. third line from the botten is the word that makes it all relevant. "mishappenings" whats different about the sun revolving nothing. but give it a moon and then you have an eclips. and from there soon you'll have a god. well titled John Henry Loving III
