Listen to poem:
Nap Time In the astral world of utterance, one overhears the whispering of sweet nothings, breathlessly whisking up a spell of portioned scents that nay, nearly spilt the teacups swirled cremes delights and demitasse gooey treats, Behold the phoenix rise to full measure under a lunar ecliptic mystic mesmerizing trance, upon a peacocks crown, whose stretched out azure-chartreuse wings, becomes enmeshed betwixt the manes of an unbridled passionate gallop, For it leaped towards a skipping array of a colorful rainbow's path, that was freely dancing throughout its phases within the warmth air of a frozen sky, As it spread o'er a vast terrain of mounds and vales of gathered greens tethered to tawny treasures teeming of life with no end at joyful pleasures, Thus at the behest of Cherubs during the advent of endless stars whose dreamy light twinkles instructions that seduces a flock of whimpering lambs a free ride on their woolly souls, Fostering meek minions to flow in the channels of a righteous domain free of a distant storm pushed by the lashes of sunbeams tickled whips temperate to your hearts enchanted beats that steadies the gauges of innocence, And as a cluster of mirrors enlightened volumes of your sojourned quest of luminous unconscious prominence in a period of this, your inner realm expanse, collectively storing away as romantic muses within the anthology of your memory as its key All delicately locked by the fortuitous magnitude of your eyelids. 2019 May 16 *4th Place* Baby Face What's You THINKIN 2 ~~James Edward Lee Sr.

I just hope that I gave babies of that age, poetic justice, of the tender moments largely spent during the time of their lives, with their eyes closed to a world that does not include us, encased within their righteous REM rest, whereto, I believe I have, Aloha William

Well, William, you seem to have what I call 'the power of vocabulary', taming wild words to make them dance as you wish. It reminds me of my best friend from college who had such a skill too-- which I envied.
