Our words they mingled, in space and time.
Dancing blank pages, between blank lines.
The thoughts we had, not shared out loud.
The sounds of words, our thoughts abound.
Our eyes they meet, with silence round.
Our words are mingled, just thoughts no sound.

Mingled Rhythms
Our living earth does promise us new life;
after winter's sleep, it wakes once more.
As trees are governed by deep roots
that awake when spring arrives,
all life meets death but finds
new beginnings dawned,
while life and death,
their mingled
rhythms
spin.

Mingled highs and lows from the weather
All around earth gives forth flowers
Radiant sun awakens and birds gather
Constant change as each tree grows higher
Hopeful season of spring; spirit towers
Majestic springtime sunrises
Amorous hidden feelings spring forth
Rapturous aroma surprises
Captivating senses of mirth
Heavenly days linger, henceforth?
Magic moments float into night's prizes
Attentive doting companion
Rehearses love's verse~ excited
Completely engulfed unabandoned
Hauting thoughts float like jasmine
