Words Fail Me

The soul's lucidity so brilliant,
the peace of mind so pure, so poignant,
the delight of the heart so vibrant;

           profound, glad feelings enwrapping me,
           undulating breathing of the sea,
           skyey freedom, sharpest eyes can't see.

                      To write on these no talents I've got,
                      a truly gifted poet I'm not,
                      no wondrous ways with words, not a lot;

                                  at the moment, I can't find a way,
                                  I have nothing coherent to say
                                  of Life's beauty unfolding each day.
