Notes About The Poem

Source Of Awareness

Surrounded by amazing bright world settings,
it didn’t take that  long for me to realize aplenty,
in every single broad nuanced sense,
with no grey  cap on rich imagining,
I couldn’t help at all but notice,
awareness at my very own doorstep,
bountiful harvest for crop dependant farmer,
all I had to do was listen and  duly learn,
spray haze fountains impact senses everywhere,
abundant and profuse to say the least,
integrated into mindful ocean revelry,
rainbows in the sky might taunt, tease and tantalize,
but isn’t that imperative for genuine enlightenment,
endless stretch not confined to land based quarter,
modern human belt of  pearl city highway,
that much maligned rush hour zeitgeist,
if only one  is willing to absorb it,
dig deep below its speed bump,
wonder at those schedule driven lives,
fascinating episode behind the wheel,
just as pastures often strike  what
lies within their tufted carpets,
dormant passage waiting to be scripted,
green meadow, winding lane and dirt dry slope,
signposts nudging intuition to a higher plateau,
graceful flier tweet on burgundy red leaf,
so the urban concrete marvel has this crucial  role,
street vendor ardent  patios toll  free,
to a tangerine celestial horizon’s frail whisper,
supplier of the silken bon mot
