Illuminated figure eights swirling through the stratosphere
moonlet drops of gold surrounded by the ebon night
Star kissed wishes floating through the atmospheric dew
of a celestial paradise filled with joy and ebullient light.
My timid time will be made of many happy hours
if you give me a glinting prism of diffracting glass,
I’ll split the sun’s spectrum in the VIBGYOR colors,
over your dulcet face dawn’s flowing hues will pass.
If you show me in a magical mirror your enticing face,
in the mesmeric motif of my kaleidoscope I’ll see you,
your sweet smile will configure your innate grace,
encased forever in my heart, it’ll always appear new.
Give me a lens of longing that will lovingly magnify
the window of your heart, butterflies can make entry,
where on wings with fresco of my fervor they will fly,
design the perception of your perennial portrait for me.
If you’re in the shadow of my silence, music you’ll hear
the violin of my heart plays when you’re with me close,
songbirds will fly with my love in your sky crystal clear,
for you the tunes of ebullient emotion they’ll compose.

Dawn upon the naked endless beach,
my feet dug in balmy moistened sand;
indocile sound ebbs, wanes out of reach.
Most ebullient music to my ears.
Heavens forgiving out-pour with each
and every flawless refreshing drop
subdues nature; extends its outreach.
Sunrise I wait for your needed speech
that shines upon me soft tranquil pace.
Swinging from pregnant cloud, my toes reach.
Most ebullient music to my ears.

Poetry Contest; Music to my Ears'
Sponsored By: Silent One
Ebullient expressions!
Filled the vacant heart
In sombre skies a star shone bright
Whiff of baking cake !

Wings are gliding
Far and wide
Searching no more
Not to hide
Searching no more
Hearts are ignited and free
And flee
With the moment
So short they are
Happiness comes and a flurry
Need not worry
For the instant pleasure
Content and measured
Run with it
Oh run so wild
And release the child
Spirited verve
Your are deserving
And so
Alive
