languid afternoon
cottonball clouds drift across
an expansive sky
creating elaborate patterns
for painters to interpret

In expansive metaphysical conceit

a lavender aroma

sweet,
an expansive
wonderment
evaporates
subsides...
summer scents
gone forever

Never Ending

memory, fantasy, ecstasy
taste the passion
honey sweet and thick
warm like the sun
romantic like the stars
expansive like the sea

Premium Member Solipsism

Solipsism
Appears as
An expansive
Thought of "me"
The separate me..
Saying:
Me is all
Is everything..
Some spiritual paths
Seem to find this
Solipsism trap...

Just a Player

You're a mere player
And the world your expansive field,
And hardly are there
Any golden rules, dude;
Your moves let your instincts drive
And your zeal your mind revive!

Premium Member Emu

Even though they have wings
Emu’s can’t fly. Hens lay
Emerald-green eggs in
Expansive leaf lined nests.
Each emu egg would make
Enormous omelets
Envisage eating that!

Just a Player

You're a mere player
And the world your expansive field,
And hardly are found anywhere there
Any golden rules, dude;
Your moves let your instincts drive,
And your zeal your mind revive!

Romp and Stomp On Swamp

Romp and Stomp On Swamp

What they have done to expansive swamp,
Is to jump right on it and then really romp;
Water squish,
With anguish;
Others have been doing Stonybrook stomp.

Night After Daydreaming


her thoughts are as vast as cloud,
imagination massive,
expansive, ever-changing
much like the sky so airy~~
vivid dreams filled her evening,
becoming more symbolic,
abstract or fantastical.

The black expansive depths, I plumb,

Over blue marble, the sea of suns,

Under a tapestry, dripping bright,

Canticle written on endless night,

Heaven, touch of the ages, come.

Deep Blue

Deep Blue

Deep blue night
With starlight dancing 
In soft quiet air.

Stars flicker
With opulent yawns.

I am never alone
For I am
Starlight 

And am forever 
Kissed by an expansive
Red shift into

Blossoms of rainbows.

Poet's

Their expansive views, high-rode with
Of itself, a world inform.
Calm looked on genius of flight;
Jolted about in a storm!

"Hello down there" faerie-obscure
To whom by shops interact.
Trivial, paltry possessors of life;
And oh so matter-of-fact.

sliding into an equanimous zone
tranquil nonchalance laced with compassion
poised thus in blissful solitude alone
divine magnetism fuelling traction
expansive heart glows with satisfaction
dance of polarities vibratory
steers mood into mode celebratory

Premium Member Vantage Point

She is afraid of suspect spaces,
with sparse starlight, ancient arches,
abyss-steps, swinging lanterns &

comforted by a moonlit garden,
an expansive sky of navy blue,
glitter-stars in an elocutionary’s box.

Premium Member Quelling the Storm

Quelling the storm

When we break out
From the illusion of separation
To recognize our Identity which
Exceeds birth and death..
We can then experience the
Dance of mind and world
As spontaneous dreams arising
In our expansive Identity..
This is liberation
A quelling of the storm...

To Feel Expansive In Appreciation of a Night Garden

I thrill to yellow platters of iris against Spring black blue skies,
I am moonstruck by their essence and reflection in Nature's eyes. 
For their secret night cooling breeze.
I long to draw in their perfumy breath and blow it from me
Emeralding around their friends’ night symphonies.
And send it to you with my love.
