The soul is craftsmanship, a complex filigree
The soul is craftsmanship, a complex filigree,
One moment it dances in laughter, and the next, no reaction spree.
It's the secretive goldsmith of emotions we weave day by day,
With wings of thoughts, while the tiniest feelings can make the balance sway.
Upon us, the eave of the sky sometimes heavily lies,
And yet, we resist, with a shield

Filigree
Filigree
Celtic Filigree
Graceful filigree unbroken
Weaves a tracery
With strands entwined
Like a whisper from the misty isles
Woven into whorls of melodic unity,
Indivisible spirals of the eternal three,
Thin harp strings of crisscrossed swirls
Weaving lyric filigree
Delicate fine threads elaborate
Earth, water, fire in legends
Of scholar saints and mystics –
Erin’s braided shield
Two hearts intertwined into infinity
As a king’s wisdom brings

Born Among Snowflakes Filigree
I have a deep true love and bond with winters cold,
born among snowflakes filigree;
though, I adore all seasons that unfold,
it is me- who holds my life's master key.
I just love spring and all her pretty colours bright,
and like autumn for leaves set free;
oh, so many kinds of love that delight,
born among snowflakes

Nature and Creation Envy
I saw a dragonfly today
Skimming over the surface of a still pond
It’s beauty reflecting the light
Colours of blue, green opalescent delight
It’s wings fluttering as it flew effortlessly
It’s a sample of nature

Filigree Snowflakes Fall
I walk lonely in the garden of my dead mother,
down paths frozen with song birds in trees;
my coat is of mourning black,
my heart is shattered-
Filigree snowflakes,
fall . . .

Frost Like Filigree
Jack
Frost
arrives
Feather like
patterns have appeared
all over my bedroom windows
My frozen fingers trace the swirling fern like patterns
as I gaze intensely at the sparkling crystalline formation on the window panes
Warm
breath
melts a
small section
of filigree ice
Rivulets of icy water
trickle down the glass. I wipe away condensation

Frost Like Filigree
Frost Like Filigree
Frost filigree, superb can be
as nature weaves crystal delights.
With varied lacey forms, we see
sculpture sparked by lights.
'Neath sun or moon, artwork alights;
the glistened shapes show artfully
presenting joy within our sights.
Ice clings, designs

A Gold Filigree Chest
A walled in pond with trees draped with moss
brighten by a warm predawn glow
Two sisters sit on a small stone clearing
keeping secrets of their own
that can never be lost
A gleam of awe on their lovely faces
an open gold filigree chest they hold
Lustrous pearls once worn by their grandmother
they hold dear ,treasured

Swirls of Gold Filigree
A pale, ghostly moon rises
at night when the day is done.
And orange and tangerine
get bled from a crimson sun.
Space is draped in black velvet,
pinned with galaxies of light.
And swirls of gold filigree
confetti the dark of night.
Twirling pulsars and quasars
provide rhythm, spinning in place.
And in this cosmic ballet,
gravity maintains the pace.
Mars ascends in shades of red;
evoking

Tightly woven lace blocks the sun
