Paloma P Poet Light Verse

Wherefrom Enlightenment Dwells

To define innocence in the
countenance of a child's smile
and love's eminence in wildflowers,
conceive infinity in exalted ocean's roar
whilst summer breezes glance splendor
flourishing jasmine and hummingbirds
amidst evermore expansive sunrises,
whence space and time ceases to exist 
thereupon shall enlightenment dwell

Such imagery truly lifts me and you delivered an ultra serving of imagery. Breathtaking, Paloma. So is your new pic - is it Audrey again? "All I want is a room somewhere, far away from the cold night air ..." You know that, right? Love the poem, CayCay
