A single note
Just starting with a single note.
Drawn to the vibration
Then another, ally, companion.
These two becoming firm friends
As others come to join the fray.
Repeating and finding new meaning,
Never quite knowing their course
Yet their purpose so sure.
Allowing the sound to penetrate
Lighting the fire in the belly
As another note is plucked
From obscurity
In another’s train of thought.
Together yet apart.
Volume and intent mutate
Organically growing to finally,
Eventually and climatically
The air thick filled with fever.
Harmony between the entities
As a hive mind yet each as one.
From single note to final melody grown,
Raw, unrehearsed crescendo
Capturing a moment in time never duplicated.
Unsmiling gray wisp fingers drift and bore
A helical ridge around the vast sky;
Down abutting poignant horizon floor.
Alga blooms a huffy infectious cry.
A tree hollow bears nestling hanging high.
Lively songbird-swallows touched by the stir
Swift cry, swell and disappear till late by-
Passing hours of summer ruffling shower.
In a warm sleeping bag in a small tent,
Newlyweds lounge engaged with sweet hush sound
And lambent flame. Could not be better spent,
To wake with the morning dawn bodies wound.
In the open, they lie there, on their camp site,
Beneath the infinite clear twilight night.

Above all alluring abundant acoustical air,
admirable adoring ambient angels
arriving announcing anointed acceptance,
attracting appealing ambrosial
astral amalgamating affection.

Tautogram Poems

Placed 1'st...Thank You
For every day the dawning sun does rise.
Births jubilation there before Thine eyes.
Brightly colored rays nobly to shed light.
Accents wondrous flawlessness in plain sight.
Sparked myriads of seeds on which life's drawn.
Brash rivers bear oath heirs ‘tis tryst of dawn.
Sways and swirls a choreographic dance.
ambient twirls perpetually by chance.
Flail on shores hence spawns of man and beast form.
Yea verily 'tis now yields earths new norm.
Winding winds elope Ye fair leaves of trees.
Rolling thunder cede fealty unto thee.
Esteemed Vox barrage of resounding ardor.
Grasp our lore of adoring loves of yore.

Running around to
The ambient sky
Stars
About them
Bringing nighttime
To a phase of day
And in leaning we
May have forgot
the light's still flashing
wait another minute
okay it's stopped
now breath in
and hold...ok
stan sand
an ambient light
fills center of a forest
a fog enhanced grove
Russell Sivey
Ambient eyes
Seeking this
Promised Land
Through flesh and bone
Never again
The Jews
Shall survive
slightest of movements
hold the hands on a watch
wind drifting so quietly
ambient in my thoughts
tug and pull,stretch the time when it is so near
the ending of a special moment
one you will hold dear
