Soon nature will change color
A refraction time
Autumn has the highest price
A goodbye to warm and bright days

The air is fresh and the forest is quiet 
The migratory birds leave us
and those who remain
have to prepare for a new cold season

Autumn shines in orange, red and gold
When the sun sweeps low over the landscape
it gives a warm and nice light

Time for reflection, leaned back in a soft chair
Take a look at the starry sky, it's beautiful
The only thing you need to think about,
is to be present at the moment

The bending light from the headline
News
As it enters my optic
Nerve
Resonates from eager
Fingertips
Coursing to my
Cortex
As the crisp crunch of
Paper
Crackles in self
Satisfaction
The pungent wisp of fresh
Paper
And strong
Ink
Refract
A
Poem

...I can touch

There was a sweet girl of pure glass.
Met a merry man with no class.
She’d shattered this bloke.
He drank til she broke.
Both attended funeral mass.

 Refracting morn's light
Aurora Borealis
Beauty touched spirit
Sunrays pierce trees through forest
Moment captured forever

The Refraction of Your Gaze



The prism of your Rejection is held before me 

colors, breaking apart
to pierce my heart 
	with their meaning,
entering, 
	becoming:

the Violet of Penitence 
	though I seek not forgiveness
the Blue of Piety and Sadness
	the one color true
the Green of Faith and Envy
	my eternal hope and your selfish desire
the Yellow of Jealousy and Fear
	which neither of us may ever erase
the Orange of Fruitfulness
	wherein Love once grew, fragrant and sweet
the Red of Martyrs and Anger
	death of the innocent, whose blood-color is as rage

projected from the Black Void of 
your false Spirit, I am pierced as
you gaze beyond me, as though I were
a weak and fading spectrum 
already dead 
already powdered nothingness

Why must you 
	see me 
		through these colors  
when I looked upon you with
		 the clear light of Love?

Hegelian Refraction

Expelled again from cosmic matters
The fool consults his satellite
Eager to shred to tatters
All ambition to fight
Structured tyranny
Rolling over
Civil minds
Without
Fear

Refraction

The light in your eyes
Hit the prism of my soul
And scattered into a spectrum
Of a million colors
A slow vibration
And then a similar wave of energy
Passed between us
As our fingers touch
I am transformed
And we travel to other places
The taste of your lips 
Channels instant connection
And I don't want to leave this place
Your luminescence streams 
Through your fingers and toes
And through the ends of your hair
The continual glow keeps me warm
As I take you in my arms
You make me feel infinite
Like I could live on forever
I tremble in my subtle weakness
But you are there to comfort me
You shelter me with your love
And I protect you under my wings
You make me all that I am
No one else could make me feel this way

I wanted this infatuation stone.
Perched upon the fringe of a great unknown.
Wading into warm shallows called hope
My eyes out of tune with the murky shoal.

Reaching out with lusty intent.
Bumping infatuation over the ledge,
Wobbling down a trail of salty nonchalance,
Following, like a drunken, big-footed clown.

Leaving sunlight behind with each foolish stroke.
Into a deep blue ball of unforgiving cold.
Blue relenting to a black pod abyss.
Until the spirit struck the face of godless.

A million stones for a fool to blindly grope.
With handfuls of infatuation, I quickly rose 
Each stroke loosening up a few more stones.

Breaching the surface with nothing left.
But the refraction of lust and the ghost of regret.

Premium Member Seasonal Refraction

My being is a mirror of the cold.
Flows through me, like wind and mold.
Flakes that can fly, bite, and hold.
The beauty of clear winter evenings unfolded.
Snowfall is enhanced by the trees exposed. 
When lakes freeze, the kids shift to rink mode.
We omit each item from the scold.
However, we do not know what winter will hold.
This is the real springtime prize foretold

Refraction...

Refraction explained as....
the bendinig of a ray or wave of light
or sound,as it passes from one
medium into another....

Example,
a clear glass half full of water
with a straw inside glass
as light passes through the glass
it creates an illusion of sight
the straw appears as two seperate
but,if you hold straw straight center
it become's as one straw again.

Theory,
if we look at our physical body
as a container filled with water
if we consider our spiritual self
as above example,being the straw
you can now understand 
the importance of centering,focus
the farther we lean in any direction
creates the illusion of spiritual sight
with the possibility of a broken spirit

The Holy Grail,or cup
is our physical body
containing our Holy Spirit....

Refraction

Though Time has dwindled me to motes,
My dust remains in sunset’s light—
A pattern faintly forms and floats
Discernible before your sight.

Indefinite and vague, yet there,
A wisp of what I was persists
Split-second long upon bright air—
Then vanishes in violet mist.

Glass Smoked Refraction

Hey feather flick of wondrous need
Gossam dancing faded wonder
Floating frantic whispers freed
Pushing clouds of shadow under
Bringing light to intercede
In this an endless space of  ether
Swirling twirling mocking fate
Where were you thirty years or more
Slamming shut this dewy door
Of promises  and mirrored smoke
Wouldst I could tell this cosmic joke
That aged wine has better taste
A sweet aside young maiden fair
Enjoy the ride and dare to care
For memories will never waste
So make a few to share

Premium Member Prismatic Refraction

Delineation
By symbolisation
As the uttered word
Finds all hearts stirred
By the power of vibration
Coloured by their interpretation 
As of purity of their being
In resonation feeling
Marked by intent
With will bent
In surrender
In wonder
Co-creating
By experiencing
Stirrings in the heart
Wherein cognition starts
Anew at each given moment
Heightened by stillness quotient
