Clouds rosy-tinted in the setting sun,
Depths of the clear blue sky between, Plains where life is felt
Patched with a hundred tints of brown and green, --
Beauty of Earth, when in the harmonies
The cannon's note has ceased to be a part,
I shall return once more and bring to these
The worship of an undivided heart.
Of those sweet potentialities that wait
For my heart's deep desire to fecundate
I shall resume the search, if Fortune grants;
And the great cities of the world shall yet
witness the search for my princess.
O river waters, where are you going?
Rushing to the vast ocean again
To be dissolved in the blue depths?
This humdrum floating you do -
Don’t you think it's futile?
Never can you fill
The deep oceans
and the seas
With your
Flow.
Man,
O Man!
Flow with me
And you will see
This living gifts me.
To sleepy woods I sing;
The dry grounds I fecundate
With mirth, earth's produce leap and bounce
To my body and reaches the land
As my lithe shape edges valleys secure.

Spring Equinox has come at last
As morning dawns from winter’s night
New dreams revealed from seasons past
Soft petals open to the light
As morning dawns from winter’s night
Awareness drawn from dreamers keep
Soft petals open to the light
Evoking visions from the deep
Awareness drawn from dreamer’s keep
A guiding light that shines desire
Evoking visions from the deep
Open to sweet love passion’s fire
A guiding light that shines desire
Beckoning birds of feather home
Open to sweet love passion’s fire
Sing harmony, spring season poem
Beckoning birds of feather home
Synchrony of fecundate soul
Sing harmony spring season poem
Open heart to awaken whole
Synchrony of fecundate soul
A gathering of light transpires
Open heart to awaken whole
To blossom forth our true desires
A gathering of light transpires
New dreams revealed from seasons past
To blossom forth our true desires
Spring Equinox has come at last
Spiritual fruits upon a tree
Ripened,ready for all to see;
Sincere,gentle inwardly kind
Set at one,in a peace-filled mind;
Temperate,diligent and pure
Understanding& perseverance will nurture;
Brotherly love and hope will ensure
An orchard in bloom until mature.
