Jaycee Cervenka Poet Lyric

Spring and You

Lying in a verdant spring field,
scents of fruit and roses permeate the air;
thoughts of you are never far.
They caress like the sun's warm rays,
bringing a suffusion of joy to my heart.

The hum of occasional automobiles
blend with the drone of honey bees
lulling my senses like a Gregorian chant
in an Austrian monastery.

You and nature have become 
my tenants of religion,
calming my restless spirit;
soothing my soul, 
until I am a placid lake
soaking in all that is you.

Thomas Martin March 24, 2015 at 12:34 PM Have been looking most o your work and all are impressive with their heartfelt feelings and wonderful word usage, particulary this one. Jaycee Cervenka March 24, 2015 at 12:46 PM There is a plethora of words to be had, why use the same ones? Although I must confess that every once in a while one gets caught rattling around in my head, and it shows up in several of my poems of the moment.

Jerry Bolton March 24, 2015 at 10:36 AM Such poetical thoughts and phrasing withing this wonderful life-sharing poetry. Spring! Yesssss . . . A wonderful time in the cycle of life. Add to that the mystery and contentment of love and you have something very nearly perfect. Jaycee Cervenka March 24, 2015 at 10:57 AM Jerry, there is nothing quite like the peace of sitting in a warm spring sun and letting your thoughts drift to the one you love. Spring has put the warm fuzzies into my writing! =-) ~jan
