Dwelling Vespers

Listen to poem:

Written: April 3rd 2024 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ How I venerate you, O Lord In your lens, lenity and levity loom as a benign breeze Stars doth glitter in a prolific night sky Their radiance is a celestial litter guiding wayward souls to shine When people slumber, embrace They heed no calls. Even gates sealed by nobility won't disrupt their serene sleepiness yet I embrace your extol in solitude In an epoch where time stretches No flame flickers with fervor as I wassail on Ambrosian Amber amorist aflame by zeal and dazes I spy on myself with an unequivocal shield Observing an abundance of stars in motion With clouds skating kindly, hide-and-seek Through a sky smeared with ink It's well past midnight My knees start to quake and aquiver I had eagerly awaited the moment. Beneath clay of life Amidst challenges, beleaguer I'm tripping and fumbling from a perch Oh, what a sight... I fall from my pedestal Now diminished to creeping and crawling Our separation has been long and crave your arcane embrace It's been ages since I first revered your ariose divinity I will never perish asunder. I grasp your blithely unfathomable lens I am witnessing the blossoming of canorous love while I am tangled in its throes My clangor corpulent return is obvious after desultory crestfallen I grapple in agony, seeking mercy Despite my anguish, I felt forlorn in need of your diaphanous meed But you never let me be lonesome Constantly providing an unwavering glow. Dulcet shrine dances A hundred billion mirrors Elysian pin-sized effusive Dazzles with an ephemeral glow Rising in an esoteric mirror Fastidious gossamer glimmers Of the divine inveigle Until you bear them in How will you realize? Who resides there? Elixir lyrics by masters Churning my impalpable blood Into jaunt juicy ambrosia. You grasp my languid state And celebrate Wait till I dissolve Into loquacious nectar then will drink and maunder a nebulous nexus was around?

Your soul has poured out a series of ideas that have made this world so evil. Great alliteration all along. It was wonderful to hear your poem read. Ideas are profound and need someone to discuss them. Wonderful poem.

Ah dr sotto, this feels like such a sincere write that comes from your soul, expressing your love and humbleness, amidst all the darkness and being tangled in throes, how you still seek for light and love from the arcane embrace of the almighty, how beautiful is the flow and how youv expressed throughout is so touching and profound! I especially loved the last lines and your use of poetic techniques such as alliterations etc really stood out for me: its always a meaningful write from you. Pleasure reading this! Sending you light

Your poem reads like a solemn prayer, my friend. A thoughtful discourse dwelling in divinity. Much wisdom you convey in this introspective rendering, Lasaad. I felt the intensity of your poem throughout.
