Notes About The Poem

For Eve Roper's Contest "The Physical World Around Me". Date October 6, 2026

The Splendor Of The Physical World


From the bay of blue hills at the edge of placid plateau,
flows with fervent ebullience the sparkling stream
in the emerald forest with the murmur of timeless tune.
Twilight filigree created by crimson clouds in spectral sky
suffuses me with golden touch seeping through my skin.

Flying over the crystal waters of the fluorescent flow, 
returning from cold convoy of robins chirp springtime song.
As in the boughs of trees the nascent jade leaves rustle,
beguiled butterflies flitter around the blushing buds,
swinging with the resonant whisper of the rippling air. 

The rain-rinsed satin sky shines in the valley of flowers,
the floating fragrance of spring I smell, enthralled.
With the tinged touch of cosmic charm of the rainbow 
up above the tree canopy the clouds melt in cool rain,
the drops are like elixir of heaven, my taste buds retain. 

When the drape of onyx night wraps the dusky sky,
the moonshine magic turns it into an argentine orb,
adorned by the jeweled stellar crown of constellation. 
I’m charmed by the splendorous physical world around me,
perceive in the cradle of nature the niche of divine delight.
