Ring Cyberspace Bells

Ring, Cyberspace Bells

Vitriol is crowding cyberspace;
A year of gaseous utterances unleashed and hanging;

Close your eyes, imagine a global warming of utterances;
It must be dissipated – no, dissolved.

Burst open spewing beautiful heart!.

Lean back in that easy chair;
Close your eyes, without fanfare.
Breathe into cyberspace’s sulphuric gas
The antidote, your own soul’s buried prettiness.

Melt away, delete, strike cyber trash!

Wispy clouds across the moon.
A newborn babe’s first smile;
Riding a convertible on a perfect day,
Sunflower fields for a mile.

The expression on a girl friend’s face,
As she accepts your hard-earned ring.
A wandering wind caught between hills,
When they happily start to sing

Fall leaves dancing like jewels
On old gnarled and stately trees;
Silver streaks, twinkling reflections.
On a lovely lapping lake at eve.

Now I have started a prism’d ball,
Of exquisite  glittering pastel things.
Lie back, lie back, create your own
‘Til cyberspace bells start to ring.

A thought provoking write Sunlite, it will take sometime and a re-read or two to decipher but that's not uncommon for my simple mind. Thanks for the read...

Quirky and a sign of the times, I love the 'wispy clouds across the moon' verse!

Their loss, they don't know what they're missing, it's unique! :) Pleasure was all mine.
