Keith O.J. Hunt Poet Free verse

Star Seeker

The winter is dwindling!

   the winter is dwindling!

There is an ancient warmth

   returning to kiss this land

   with warm love ----

   draw her in from the shadow

   of icy-looms,

Spinning sure-spun recipes,

(warmer the beams solar-soft)

   the sun becomes a star;

   deeper in day to bloom

   many a seed for her delicate

   gaze,

And the warmth of winds

   blow from fire-nymph lips;

There is growing in heaven's calendar,

   gardens to till, lawns to mow.....

Should an angel choose a swifter spring....

Draw children from their open windows;

   to parks and balls and sandbox thrills,

   let the sun be some prima donna,

   some little genius,

   anxious to shine

   (Deeper)

Louise Holley March 24, 2014 at 4:50 PM This is lovely. I love the sun, she always knows how to make us feel better. Well written and delicate.

Demetrios Trifiatis March 24, 2014 at 4:23 PM Keith my name is Demetrios! Ha-ha! Keith O.J. Hunt March 25, 2014 at 11:07 AM Very clever Demetrios! Yes, and your poetry shines! BTW I once loved a Greek woman, the love of my life... I never ate better! (cooking is an art)(and she sure could cook!)

Demetrios Trifiatis March 24, 2014 at 4:11 PM A phantasmagoria of expressions that the Spring competes in beauty! Excellently written dear Keith! Keith O.J. Hunt March 24, 2014 at 4:16 PM Thanks so much Charmaine, you shall replace the warmth of the sun for me.....(for at least a week!) I like using brackets sometimes for emphasis, or sometimes the word seems 'naked' or it somehow is dropped too suddenly --- (Deeper) instead of just 'Deeper' for me is more effective here. Many thanks again, and may we both have many more great shares together!
