We are an interval between death and death

All is an illusion

We temporarily implement mental images

For our own amusement....

Pictures and postures of people
And places…in my soul they settle

The Piscean Age, at it's close,
Will overlapp, doubling the frequency,
..... as an Octave interval.
When this happens, a new Keynote is struck,
Then the beginning of a new World Age....

Living in the Cenozoic era
Broken down for Holocene
Quaternary argues me
Hadean Eon answered
Love is science, religion smiled 
Started launching Holy Book
Planetesimal rules, interval.

I did learn at an early age that girls 
can leave our lives
In varying lengths of time.
This interval can from a drink
to years
or even over the length
it takes to have dinner.
One week was Summer Camp
When I was eight....

Till now,
You didn't answer
My many letters sent.
No reply to my hearts' longing.
Elegant words devised for response failed.
Now, who is knocking on my door?
You, grinning sheepishly.
Gone, my gloom, then
Till now....

Interval over,the shamrocks,had their say
Two tries blew the reds away-
Fear of winning led to mistakes
Until O'Gara's drop goal
Lifted every Irish soul


Memo: Ireland won the Rugby Grand slam yesterday 21st for the first time since 1948...

in the wake of the
morning, my soul is set free
when listening to the subtle
keys of blowing breeze
and when I see the sun rise
in waves of crimson, orange
and gold, my mind is at ease

Silence
Miracle Man
6/21/2022

I spend time burning thoughts I’ve left unsaid,
always backward thinking, afraid to look ahead.
Undisturbed, that interval before voice appears,
this ambiance of silence is “music to my ears”.

There at the beginning of the day's edge

                  or late in the day, early in the night

                  they missed each other

                 coming and going, brief interstice of sun and moon...

                  time to love...!...

I
When I knew I am but space
When all bodies are distilled
We learn only space filled
Us, with energy as interface

II
Death separates birth and birth
We never learn this at school
Ask a wave its beginning (Fool,
I am, until water said "I'm first")...

common,
     so trifling
      slight
     untinged
in awe
of the array
before
      me:
without 
      effort,
a process
    to gratify
to tend
and preserve,
an
     interval
akin
to
emtions...
     swiftly,
before it
withers...
reach
for a pen...

Inside..quiet and stillness
without..the soundless dawn..
In my mind's eye
an endless Satie interval

Spectrum wavelength giving off hues
Eyes drink in any color they choose

Glorious rainbows catch the light
Joy and hope dancing into our sight

Mind may limit but soul perceives  
A vibrant union the heart believes

Two pages later and two poems in between,
The bench we sat on and I.
My heart sold, but not bought,
Remember the rain, and we got caught
It was never so lovely, or welcomed
I have tried, but only cried,and
My tears overwhelmed the rain.
Two pages later and two poems in between,
The bench we sat on and I....

The interval of sunshine gleams
When terms of the day blush longer
As radiant heat fashions fun
For us to swim, run, hike and play
Campfires at night, breakfast at dawn
Picnics on lawns while children dance
Goodbye sun friend, see you again

endless
           boredom,
isolated
renditions
              survive
to provoke
enchantment
             end route....
intrepid 
           segments
juxtaposed
            with irony...
a mocking
             presence
meagre..yet..
                 subtle,
idiomatic
       syncopations..
...to frustrate as
I deliberate...

Get goals that are attainable
Orientate yourself towards  achieving them
Determine to accomplish, even against all odds

Ignite your inner strength
Sacrifice! It will worth it

At every interval, Pray!
Live every moment becoming better
Look up to heavens, it’s the only certain place for help...

Today I met a storm, and
It washed away my muse,
It left my mind dripping thoughts,
In an ocean, to drown in blues

My tender became too steep,
Became the obedient moan,
Became a ferocious lost “Yes”
That slowly turned to stone.

I’m now a parking violation,
A brief interval in the way,
I’m now a wonderfully weak dot
From a pen to destroy each day....

Without her caressing  portrait of reflection, 
Haunting every room of  the heart's daily walk-
Her sweet breath of words,
Breathing kisses of soul expansion on the spirit cheek's ear of I-
Twinkle interval caught in choreography in the poetic draft of yonder colorimetric 
dream escape,
Within the inner person.
Myself,
I am but this,
Another face in the crowd of time-...
