Komorebi

When the last drop of rain falls upon hushed leaves, and thin threads of hope seep through petrichor perfume of life, an array of sun kissed colors bursts forth secrets of the sky; a Komorebi of dreams woven amidst frolicking shadows of moonrise. I search for an answer to the equations within my hazy mind, I ponder if poetic verses can paint a forest burnt from ignorance? as I’ve long been sketching drizzling sakura foliage to find healing, from butterfly bliss strokes of faith that never fades. But love is the celestial maestro orchestrating a cloudless chorus- where mockingbirds croon to the notes of the sun and moon- reflecting along rolling ripples of liquified lakes. Is there a summery phrase to illustrate the gossamer warmth of cascading rays? Maybe canopies of emeralds need no lyrical words, for the heart of moving light only thrums and throbs in sanguine silence.

Oh, how I look forward to reading each of your new entries, dear Inky! "Canopies of emeralds," "love is a celestial maestro," "I ponder if poetic verses can paint a forest burnt from ignorance" and so many more eloquently crafted images and lines as "mockingbirds croon." You have painted the scene with such eloquent grace I am right with you in the forest after the rain watching "sun kissed colors" frolic among shadows. What an imagination! Best wishes for the contest. Blessings!

But love is the celestial maestro orchestrating a cloudless chorus-where mockingbirds croon to the notes of the sun and moon--Beautiful poetry, my friend. Meaning of title scintillates through your poem like sunlight filtering through trees.

Komorebi is a beautiful word, i do not feel the English language fully describes it like many words from none English tongues... You have as always put your own twist on the contest, by writing about your deep thoughts, I guess rays of light through a canopy of trees would do that...canopies of emeralds sounds great but we all need lyrical words.. Good luck in the contest..
