Waves of Tranquility

~ The Universe Spins Round ~

   Joy and Light
     Shining Bright
   Waves of Tranquility
     Ocean to Sea

   Galaxies, Suns
     Combine as One
   Illumine Mankind
     His Cosmic Mind

   Woods and Forests
     Nuance and Gradation
   While Winds and Rain
     Bring forth Vegetation

   O! The Universe spins Round
     In Timeless Syncopation
   While Poets scribble Madly
     In Verbose Adoration

"Verbose Adoration" describes my writing perfectly, lol! Doing the wave for your Waves poem, they wash over me with your delightful verse. Loved the phrase "timeless syncopation". Congratulations, friend ~ John

Congratulations on your win. Another wonderful write. You have a great pen. I love your line ,"Waves of Tranquility." You need to put your "Waves of Tranquility" over the world and wash it clean. Enjoy your win and day...............

Hello Gershon ... poets have always been a valuable contribution in so many fields. Most of modern history is for us to read in poetry - thank you Gershon - Lindsay

You're right --- although over the last 60 - 70 years poetry has taken a drastic turn for the worse, methinks... Not us here at Poetry Soup, of course!! lol. Thanks, Lindsay! :) gw

Gershon had to bring out my dictionary for this one. I finally understand lol. Cleverly written my friend. Check out Celeste Solum on YouTube on the vaccination. Research it you might have second thoughts. Looking out for you friend...

And so it will always be with poets - the post pandemic era is going to be celebrated world wide when a vaccine is found Wow - just imagine that! Hugs, Jennifer.

Polls in America reveal that only 49% want to take the vaccine when it comes out... While I'm in the 49% for sure, even I don't regard it as a 'cure-all.'... The Swine-flu vaccine, also rushed to market, was only partially effective... And so it goes! :) gw

I think that 'Great, Gershon!' will more than suffice, Supercalifragilistic Kim! ~ G.G

This is the universe I want to get back to, and quickly! The optimistic universe pre-pandemic! Wow! I look forward to it.

Let's open up that positive universe stage by stage, OK? First you be positive. Then your family. Then your neighbors. Pretty soon it snowballs. Positivity was possible in Auschwitz. That's how some survived. If they could do it there... Blessings, gw
