“Spring is when life's alive in everything.” Christina Rossetti
Springtime Splendour
SPRING TIME UNDER VISIBLE WAY
Radiantly making headway
To carpet the hills with deep green
And sprinkle beauty across land
A BEE COMES DANCING EAGERLY
From midst of its honeyed perfume
To a park with flowers in bloom
To seek nectar for its beehive
BIRDS COMING DOWN EARNESTLY FREE
Are welcome to their breeding grounds
With open arms and joyful heart
Until time for them to depart
GOLDEN HYACINTH, IRIS, JASMINE, KALMIA
And many more, comely flowers
Adorn the alleys and park side
Nature`s sensory springtime pride

Silently, you gaze and cheekily,
and you pretend,
he doesn't look at you,
from gaze of his corners
and his expression
not momentarily
but too a simple wish,
as you blush head down
so silently,
being lovingly
sparks so fly
& notices
He wishes,
to feel your tease
and cheeks radiantly,
flushing like car fluids,
Dawn's not hung like heads
of a morning hunt
of the prancing rein-deers
being shot for just action,
for just being mammals.
What we need to respect,
is to snap out of the despite,
of the barrier we do create
and paralyzing
its better than
satisfaction,
we are better than this,
the lust of our skin
is the end of humanity,
love has a better feeling..
two souls aligned uniting.

Three harpsichords dance in
kaleidoscopic sound.
Our Johann Sebastian
paints colors that abound,
radiantly prancing
in patterns so profound.

Colors once blossomed radiantly
Filling the canvas with life and hope
Brightening even the darkest room
With love and prosperity
The ceiling once stood tall and proud
Even in the face of the worst storms
The walls were a profound comfort
In the deepest of desolation
People once congregated here
Filling the room with laughter
As smiles peppered every face
It was but a sense of community
What once was is no more
For here I remain in a crumbling ruin
With a battered faced
And tattered clothes all alone
For the years have not been kind
When days are long but years are fast
The degradation of health takes time
But one day slaps you fast
I call this the cathedral of lamentation
But really it is the confines of my mind
Once a beautiful escape that is now
A prison in which I can never escape

O, Mama and Maybelle,
Two of a kind with an important story to tell.
Hailing from the South with so much to say,
You stood on stages, both near and far, delivering your messages with great interplay.
Amidst much darkness, pain, and inequality,
You allowed your light to shine radiantly.
Nothing you did was ever small; everything was beautiful and big.
Big energy, big stages, big lights, and big voices—yah dig?
Soulful melodies erupted from you two like lava from volcanoes.
Every time you took the mic, you left behind rumbling harmonic echoes.
O, Mama and Maybelle,
Two of a kind that did it so well.

Heart warm, I'm smiling and observe their smile with pride
Hand in hand as we walk, my happiness radiantly shined
The feeling of such certainty for them I feel inside
How lucky to have found such love, luckiest to find
It was love at first sight, eyes before you blind
Such true kindness,they're selfless and to others always kind
Since you, i to show thoughtfulness, positive thoughts in mind
reminding them of their greatness, every day i will remind
Take lead ill follow, never far cheering and following behind
our future timeline I see clearly and fate perfectly aligned
Grinding endlessly for our goals, a teamwork working grind
She is brave and unworldly, she is Outspoken yet refined
Lets take our time , love like ours cannot be timed
Promising the whole of me, and a promise locked entwined

Glacial sent wet winds to chase out autumn radiance,
Snowdrift saints powdered white many gardens,
Leaving long flakes to peel open the morning ~
Secretly smiling...
Morning emerged radiantly recuperating,
Silence silenced, replaced by stormy sunshine,
Winter's wetness welcomed wholeheartedly ~
Singing for springtide...
Flaky flakes foisted frosts on plenty pavements,
Beautiful blessings brillianty raved a reprieve,
New natural warmth to sweet succour so sought ~
Springtime sunshine.

The sun smiling from up high,
Radiantly spewing rays of light across the sky
A breeze, a melodious breeze a-blowin',
O' Bird, just a-flyin' and a chirpin'

Oh do, let us dream, Lord, of a peaceful and shining, promising day.
To realize the value of poets we know, and incude the ignored or unknown!
Refusing the faces of negativity, humbly walking in your ways, shown.
Always remind us, please, to go to the light, where thy glory, doth lay!
I realize that not all of us have a family to sit down and have a dinner to share.
But if you do, light your candles to make this confused world, radiantly bright!
After dinner, go to the family window forthwith, inhale Spring’s sweetest night.
See your silhouettes in the moonlight, on a tender carpet on this evening rare!

“For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth.” Psalms 102:19 of the King James Bible
Trusting God and His promises each day
I meet Him in His sanctuary of grace
engulfed with bright hope amidst divine ray
as my heart triumphs in running life's race.
Excited surely well for tomorrow
my faith is propped by the Lord with His might
strengthened to conquer pain, grief, fear and woe
while abiding in sanctuary of light.
Eternal future, radiantly clear
awaits us in Christ’s sanctuary of peace
having served with sincere delightful cheer
to worship Him in praise that does not cease.

WE ALL AWAIT THE GROOM-
When we look at nature we see ourselves
Me in you in me all grand God particles
Energized radiantly everlasting energies like honey-bees
Flavorfully flowing floating darting dancing collectively
Source praising Our KING BE
ELOHIM I in Him as HE'S IN ME
As we're all await the Groom

I could adorn you
with great riches,
but my greatest gift
to you is my poetry.
Lost in the gravity of your love,
my soul has lost control of its senses,
floating in euphoria,
ecstasy and elation.
In the presence of your beauty,
even the stars hide with envy.
My muse that was once mute,
is now briskly blooming at night.
My simple musings
were without meaning,
before the first glimpse
of your elegance.
Now my heart
is whispering to the sky,
enchanted by shades
of dreamy indigo nightfall,
as twilight glows in
clementine and violet hues.
An end to
monotone blackberry skies,
as the earth creates colours
in time for our union.
Moonlight illuminates
our dream world,
as pearls appear,
radiantly reflecting,
like a constellation
in your eyes.
Your luscious lips like
merlot petals,
entice with
soft sensual warm breaths.
As we blend,
it feels like the air is alive.
Consumed in intimate infatuation,
inhibitions fade in slow motion,
as desires dissolve
like a secret of the stars.

Lord, please do, let us have a kindly dream, of a peaceful holiday.
To realize the value of poets that we know,and also.unknown.
We refuse faces of negativity, to humbly walk in your ways.
Please remind us, please, to go to the light,where thy glory be fully shown.
I realize that not all of us have a family to sit down and have a dinner with.
So poets, light your candles to make this confused world, radiantly bright.
After dinner, go to the draped, frosted, family, front bay window, or forthwith….
God will have created a soft, Thanksgiving, snowcarpet of pure white!.

in the air
i declare
it is all there
all i can do is stare
in amazement
on the cold pavement
seduced properly by a scene so surreal
on a magical night so perfectly still
all emotions are on hold for this WonderFull Moment's Feel
i become gladly lost in its EverLoving Appeal
almost immediately i Give Thanks as i kneel
in the air
i declare
it is all there
i am swept off my feet
so radiantly sweet
is the magnificent view from the frigid street
inspired i am to change my ways
my ordinary normality vanishes in the haze
a wondrous experience i do have as i freely stargaze
this is far beyond a simplistic faze
my self esteem is up, and surprisingly my Spirits Raise
