Notes About The Poem

Collaboration with Silent One. Last four lines are mine.

In the Absence of Complication

Where love reigns on the homestead,
everything purrs as it should.

Topaze sunlight pouring over emerald fields -
grueling days followed by serene nights.

In the absence of complication,
trials and tribulations become distant memories.

Above sapphire skies delight sanguine eyes -
inspiring forthcoming musings of the mind.
