Best Vistas Poems

Distant Vistas

Painted mountains, 
and art show peaks;
God’s hand in every stroke…
The canvas alive, 
and moving. 

The sweetness of perfection, 
the honesty of reality;
“All” in reverence of… in awe of!

The Creator’s… 
skill and power,
His majesty and His grace.
overwhelming and consuming, 
boundless and beautiful. 

The very act...

"Azure Vistas"

Azure vistas presented themselves to me
rolling inwards the clouds like tumbleweeds
mercilessly bump fallen angels off the map
like torrents of rain falling petulantly on blunt contracts

I glimpsed the sweet refrain of a resurrection
swift upon a storm of golden rays 
the bare feet of new tongues...

Spectrum of foliage,
Kaleidoscope canopy:
Tranquil reflections....

In a bird filled sky,
The vibrant sun slowly sets:
Analogous shades....

Who is behind all the trouble?
Is it the blacks, the whites, the Asians, Native Americans or the Eskimos?
Is it the Christians, the Jews, the Moslems, the Buddhists, the Humanists?
Let me let you in on a little secret 
They all are!
If you are paranoid you will...

Vistas paint motifs applauding your passion
Granting my evening glimpses of splendor
Sponsoring your appeal in ecstatic fashion
Enamored by our love delicate and tender

Granting my evening glimpses of splendor
Cherry blossoms sway dancing in revival
Enamored by our love delicate and tender
As moon peeks coyly cheering your arrival

Cherry blossoms...

Speaking for myself,
at my WinWin best,
My ideal learning life classroom
is outside
in mountain sage
and pine
and birch forests
overlooking a considerably more Pacific Ocean,

Relieved of burdens for future
climate pathology.
Necessary and sufficient
for this WinWin day,
this breath,
this leisurely  walk without undue weight,
And perhaps another
after sufficient rest
from LoseLose unrest.

Where I...

When I imagine my iconic vistas of love,
I watch a sunset
red and yellow,
purple and pink,
bruised lavendar and darkening grey
until pointing jagged mountain peaks
turn to black understoried landscape
plunging against gravity
toward slowly emerging sea
of glittering stars
strobeless yet twinkling pinpoints
of light's long poignant memories.

When I imagine this vista

Collages diffuse vanilla vistas
such effulgence waltzing to violet tempos
though the forestalling of waterfalls
evolves into a gargantuan war
weapons whistle from the mountains
beatitudes of mirth shan’t ever be eradicated...

Voice how you feel,
Ink a new say;
Glimpse touch that heals,
Niche joy this day;
Enter a zone,
Time for sure choice;
Taste healing tones,
Endow calm poise;
See ink stains surge.
Verse in flood tide;
Imprints that merge,
Sense lovely strides;
Tint big picture,
Art funds fixtures.

A bird in a cage; your inner demons will rage
A bird in the air your dreams cannot pair
A bird on a ledge; your losing your competitive edge
A bird in the tree is no fait accompli
A bird in the nest; all aspirations laid to rest
A bird...

Like most, I revel in being on the ocean beach,
There's a majesty, a magic, beyond words reach,
The word "awe" is insufficient as a description,
On it's effect on most
It's power, it's immensity,
Beyond the power of words,
And, more mysterious still,
It's soothing effect on the mind,
Unmatched by any...
