Renaissance Man

Walking through the museum of times endless design

Different architectural periods from room to room

Present day, Victorian, Colonial, Elizabethen, Gothic, further....

Corridores and passages, unto pristine objects and figures

Paintings, pictures, sculptures, 'more,' never before touched nor viewed

Dreamendons creation, created, stepping through the portal inside....

'Renaissance Man'....Solomons ultimate request, and far beyond! 

Granted and bestowed upon him,  by, 'The Alpha and The Omega' ~

"Come Alive"....Beyond this world, beyond this life, before, this dawning....

Vivid endless colors, in crystal clear clarity, everywhere, and within, everything!

Chitter chatter, voices and laughter, in need, of no guide

For 'The Light of Light,' has now made His abode, forever, inside ~

Walking upon the stars, as if they were stones across the brooks

Vestiges of beauties, long forgotten, standing before my sight

Truths once considered myths, now appearing, before my eyes

This endless gallery, boundless, as if scetched upon a single page

A canvas, wherein space and time, no longer do they exist....

Dreamendons cherubim ships, sailing forever into the ports, of 'Zions Eternity!'

"All Aboard"~Faces I have known, precious, since the beginning of days

Smiling as they pass me by, riding upon, 'The Wings of Pegasus'

Surrounded by celestial clouds, brilliance breathes, while bringing them home ~

A moment filled with humble thankfulness, and unspeakable, "Love!"

Bursting inside, the hearts of children once again, singing and rejoicing

'The Prince of All Tides,' with endless vision, adorned, and within their midst....

This place of glory, walking through the mouseion, with a key given unto myself, by

A doorman dressed in prismatic colors, mercions virgin, with eyes, like transparent glass

Golden smile, laced in diamonds, with waterfalls of warmth, within His hands ~

Flowing upon me, as He touches my palm, while placing this key, within my soul!

"Welcome" He said, as I opened the door, and, 'He stepped inside,' the....

What a journey you have taken me on, dear John. Once again I am there with you. I see this vision vividly and beautifully and all of the artistic treasures and the devine costumes and jewellery and grace of that time. Thank you for writing and sharing it. Love, Lainie

Beautiful write John. I just posted a poem about an artist who died spiritually. This poem is filled with beauty and it flows as beautiful as it reads. Thanks for blessing me with your wonderful words John. You had me cracking up about messing up your perfecta. You are blessed with a kind heart. Good morning from Georgia.

Beautiful poetry filled with wonderful phrases. My favorite line is "Walking upon the stars, as if they were stones across the brooks". That's simply an incredibly beautiful image! Great title too! Thank you so much for your comments on my haiku "Storm-weary" ~Juliane

Your words are becoming an addiction to me, I crave the next line as I read, there is so much intensity painted through this one, my favourite line 'Flowing upon me, as He touches my palm, while placing this key, within my soul!' Simply beautiful my dear friend, a pleasure as always, God Bless and keep you, until the next time, yours always Julie xxx

Lots of rich and vivid images here. I had a little trouble following I must be extra tired tonight. But in either case it is still a beautiful write. Thank you for all your kind words. I hope you are well. God bless you always. Love Robin (Matt. 21:21-22) PS. Glad you liked the tid bit about my family. Thought you would enjoy the humor in this. My mother had another brother who owned a tavern. My uncles who were ministers use to refer to it as "my brothers place of business".
