Gossamer breath borne
Infused with God’s refraction
Of MORNING sunlight

reflection and refraction ~
a colourful arc
Written March 8th 2018
For open hakiu contest sponsored by Mick Talbot
The dividing line
Between shadow and I
Lies between the twain
Set upon a mirrored surface
That itself does contain
Some differences
In reflective
Surfaces.
Expelled again from cosmic matters
The fool consults his satellite
Eager to shred to tatters
All ambition to fight
Structured tyranny
Rolling over
Civil minds
Without
Fear
Glassy-Eyed Refraction
There was a sweet girl of pure glass.
Met a merry man with no class.
She’d shattered this bloke.
He drank til she broke.
Both attended funeral mass.

rolls. A rural river
reaching for sea, he reverses
direction. Each wretched refraction may
wreck his rustic orthography.
Injun giver, would say

Refracting morn's light
Aurora Borealis
Beauty touched spirit
Sunrays pierce trees through forest
Moment captured forever

The bending light from the headline
News
As it enters my optic
Nerve
Resonates from eager
Fingertips
Coursing to my
Cortex
As the crisp crunch of
Paper
Crackles in self
Satisfaction
The pungent wisp of fresh
Paper
And strong
Ink
Refract

Poem
...I can touch

Though Time has dwindled me to motes,
My dust remains in sunset’s light—
A pattern faintly forms and floats
Discernible before your sight.
Indefinite and vague, yet there,
A wisp of what I was persists
Split-second long upon bright air—
Then vanishes in violet mist.
Refraction of light when
Rays of sunlight pass through
Raindrops sprinkled by clouds
Reflections behind drops
Release hues of magic
Rainbow iridescent
Revives hopes to rejoice

One plus one
does equal three,
the cumulative reward
Melodic syllables
form musical composition.
Word sings.
Letters' colour spectrum
against a white backdrop,
font promotes aim.
Sense of shared purpose
of the whole, by the whole.
Pride in communal achievement.
Once when a fresh faced young girl named Mame,
Who had a face-lift, when seeking fame.
But the mirror's refraction
Gave her no satisfaction.
For her visage, portrayed an old dame.

RAINBOWS
Newton spoiled it all for me.
Rainbows were obviously
God’s colour spree
He splashed about with glee.
Beauty was their strength and attraction.
Now it’s all just wavelength and refraction.
Thank God though
Newton never saw the glow
Of ice bows and fog bows
I can still enjoy their shows.
A wondrous arc, I beheld
Perfection in its form,
From what hand, or artists brush
Was such beauty born.
The teachers tell us what it is,
Just raindrops and refraction.
But my romantic heart,
Sees heavenly interaction.

Evening sky artist's pallette, shades
of the flickering candle flame.
Scintillation, Iridescence
light's refraction makes the perception.
Yellow, orange and reds compliment
Each other in perfect harmony
Complimentary colors blended
pleasingly to the artist eye.
Written for Brian Strands contest --Intervals.
thanks for the challenge!!
opposite poles tune attraction
contracted manifestation
questing abstracted refraction
passions spin and spar ~
penetrating fallacies deep
climax stellar tasks in gem sleep
chemistryprem pulls, hugs and shrugs bleep
and yet here we are …

Osmosis

drinking from
a warm and loving
labyrinth of redemption
perception
reflection
refraction
thought
in action
perfection
the cost
lost to
inflection
misdirection
rejection
disaffection
contemplation
of subjection
retroflection
for the only one
worth losing
to the notion
of falling to
the osmosis
of love
ELIMINATION
Crocodile swallows body of human,
Devil kisses her organ.
Poisonous snake licks human.
See here perfect reflection.
Vessel wants to touch barren of green valley.
Poisonous snake touches lingerie.
Devils forget lineage means ancestry.
See there refraction of sympathy.
See tears of crocodile.
Sigh of devils.
Poisonous forget to kisses.
Keep my love and sympathy where no trace of Devils.

Delineation
By symbolisation
As the uttered word
Finds all hearts stirred
By the power of vibration
Coloured by their interpretation
As of purity of their being
In resonation feeling
Marked by intent
With will bent
In surrender
In wonder
Co-creating
By experiencing
Stirrings in the heart
Wherein cognition starts
Anew at each given moment
Heightened by stillness quotient

My being is a mirror of the cold.
Flows through me, like wind and mold.
Flakes that can fly, bite, and hold.
The beauty of clear winter evenings unfolded.
Snowfall is enhanced by the trees exposed.
When lakes freeze, the kids shift to rink mode.
We omit each item from the scold.
However, we do not know what winter will hold.
This is the real springtime prize foretold

When the Earth’s star rises,
I see you.
When the mountains swallow the sky,
I taste you.
When the waves kiss the clouds,
I feel you.
The blue sky is my ocean,
in its sweet expanse
and nebula wisps.
And you are the prism I behold,
a vibrant band, iridescent.
The ark that stretches toward the horizon,
from end to end, infinite.
Refraction and reflection, your halo,
cascading vapors of light and love.
A natural shape, has just one side
No corners in which evil demons can hide.
The circle is endless, its simple yet strong,
A place we can all fit, it’s somewhere we belong.
Our eyes see the world, circles in three dimension,
Reflecting, refraction, aiding our comprehension.
No start or finish, the circle unending,
Spiralling turning, like the lark ascending.
Circles encompass all manner of things,
Join us in our circle to give your soul wings.
Master of sparkle, sword flung hectic
Diamond burdened by prominance
Elements nestle alternate perspective
Reminder to find subdued reticence
Asserted facets swing, pushed to relent
Forces aligned beam counterpart division
To Father darkness diamond owes a debt
Brilliance exists with shadow's permission
Spectrum developed by coinciding
Refraction sends panes of rainbow
Travel appreciates eventual arriving
Target recognised by archer's arrow

The cracked acorn gleams in Simon’s paws~
not prophecy, just refraction
through last week’s stolen garden ornament.
He squints at blurry futures:
pecan groves drowned in floods,
three-legged dogs chasing slower squirrels,
a blizzard hidding every buried nut.
Disaster! Simon panics, scrambles up bark,
forgets the vision, spots a hazelnut.
Destiny tastes better salted.
