Melodic Ecstasy

Written: April 10, 2025, for contest sponsored by Brian Strand

      *******************

dawn and sunset
             on moor & windy hills
                               solemn beauty 
                                            daffodils
                                      bringing
                    springing grass &
              April rain
     song of bloom
reminds me 
     of 
  you 
& city lulls 
      tumult 
          of memories
              from 
                neolithic 
                       times to
                celebrate 
              words of
          believer 
           of 
       love  &
soulmates
     listen to 
       old chant 
    of 
ocean
   in her
       voice
              eyes
                 &
                red curves
              of
     her lips
bowing
        stamping
                  curtsying 
                        shuffling
                               dancing
                                       on
                               old floor 
                         rocked & 
              quivered
        dowsed
rattled down
listen
   to
    chirping 
        of 
         birds
            mellifluous
                   sounds
                       in     
                   perfect 
              balance 
              of 
           angst 
      & blithe
similar 
  to 
    heartbeats
       when
          colliding
              of
                love 
                  happens
                     &
                     dusk 
                          unhappens
                 smiling
            teasing
        holding 
    hands
     in
  belatedly
yin 
   & yang

in
   Edenic
       dreams
           psalms
                of 
                 spring
                   breathlessly
                     blossom
                   beyond
                blurred
             verses
             &
          cursed
       cravings
    covets
  kissing
&
  erupting
      under 
         elysian
            edging
                achings
                   drip
                       in 
                        gold
                         & cream
                            to 
                        smitten
                      singing
                      a
                   name
                 with
          brilliance
     & limitless 
love
