Poignant Echoes 2

POIGNANT ECHOES 2
(Combo Mixed Verse Forms**)


Dark canopy, skyline deep black;
Morn suddenly flings radiance back.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Dawn hurls
Fiery outburst;
Shadows flee

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Sparrow bird song, balcony choir;
Arise to morn with fresh new eyes;
Psalm sweet and strong, salutes day's sire;
Purge thoughts forlorn, explore new highs.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Awake
Aware now
Feel bold endow
Wakefulness enlightens
Feeling

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Feel
Thought
Feeling
Touch once more
Surging whirlpool tracks
Going around mulberry bush

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

So here we glow
Around the swirls;
Churn fast and slow
In world that twirls.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Be of good cheer for love stays near
To deny fear that tempts us here.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Look up and see truth and beauty;
See what must be joy laid plenty;
See things fondly with ecstasy.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Listen now,
A voice calls
From deep within;
Style takes a hint,
Fill your blank page.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Flash of new day in a spreadsheet;
Plus or minus is but a choice;
Do what you say with your cheat sheet.

Know your finest in style of voice;
Smart works kindest in street-smart poise!

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

Ask and align
See sensuous signs
Keepsake knows kind

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
