Naming Life

Ebullient charm cascades
in the rolling valley of time,
changes color with reflection of chromatic sky
from dreaming dawn to dulcet dusk.
On sensuous azure canvas the artist mind
paints the poignant panorama of dream.
Life becomes the euphoric sky
called marvel.	.

In the riviera of surreal trance
dreams drift in from infinite nowhere
on the trail of collapsed time, past and future.
With multicolored strands of fervor
the creative mind weaves the tapestry of feeling, 
shrouding everything that seems gloomy.
Life becomes the patina of emotion
called joy.

In the river of eternal flow
mariner mind sails on winds of ecstasy,
past the grime of eroded wasteland banks,
across the broken bridges falling behind
to merge with the twilight hued serene sea,
stretched still at the edge of sunset tinged horizon.
Life becomes an ethereal perception
called beauty.
