Inviolate Spirit

Listen to poem:

Written: December 04, 2023 _________________________________________ Desensitizing me—destroying my delusion. Snapping sight of the kaleidoscopic illusion. Delving into eternity of utopian ecstasy Shimmering in an ethereal golden fantasy Drifting inwards—yielding inner space. Flamboyant with a nectarous embrace Playing an intricate oboe of tenderness. Drumming along to the tune of gentleness Invigorating my soul—infusing my barren cup Embraced me wholeheartedly the wassail up. Sitting on grass, smelling delicious lavender. Gulped divine ambrosia, wild or scavenger Syncing wires up to my celestial essence A haven where my bosom can quiescence A tranquil haven where my spirit can soar. A tranquil haven that my heart can't deplore. A sanctuary where my soul can find peace. Somewhere, my soul may relax and release. Nothing can be concealed in my quiet spirit. The whole day, one can both sense and hear it.

Again your wisdom and philosophical nature shines in a poem that rhymes so well.. This stanza really caught my attention, Syncing wires up to my celestial essence A haven where my bosom can quiescence A tranquil haven where my spirit can soar. A tranquil haven that my heart can't deplore.... Power to your spiritual pen my friend..

Sometimes yes we find that inner peace and solace in our own sanctuary of silence: those last lines resonate so strongly. I must as always highlight your rhymes, alliterations and flow of brilliant diction! I am truly in awe of the way you deliver thoughts in such an impeccable manner always. I also love the lines “ Snapping sight of the kaleidoscopic illusion. Delving into eternity of utopian ecstasy” they drew me right in! Captivating word weaving: pleasure reading this. Definitely a fave

dearest Sotto--I found such inspiration in your words...lines filled with flowing rhymes, delightful images, and exquisite vocabulary---your signature style that works so effectively. I liked sooo many of the lines and images, so I had difficulty picking just one. These first 2 lines spoke to me: Desensitizing me—destroying my delusion. Snapping sight of the kaleidoscopic illusion. Drifting inward we can all find peace, our personal sanctuary of peace and quiet. I felt calm & reassured. Sara
