Tim Smith Poet Free verse

Nourishment

movement of each echo     
  pummels  ^  til outside     
    the confines of self     
    
slits in sacred hallows     
sustain aromatic nectar     
   holding true to life     
    
    ~ where ~     
    
sunsets drip her touch     
`a serene contentment     
lain on raised breaths     
    
vision's arisen ^ in fourths     
raining down an illuminate     
a speckle surrounding time     
       
gasping for precious air     
suspended   stunning   
emotional radiance 

~rests~

amidst red brushed 
rivers rushed 
eloquently floating  by
