announces a night rain shower
rising heat degree

Redolent reverie
Rain-soaked in raspberry 
Roses most delicate
Runes woven from star seeds
Refulgent petals swirl 
Russet thorns of my heart
Regrets etched in kohl quartz...

Sometimes I think your face is a sunbeam, released from a bottle....
a warm ray, untamed and refulgent. 
Your smile a brilliant splice of birthing star and Winters brisk kiss daring me to stare 
without defense or cover...

Mellifluous is its name,
August and worthy of its fame,
Romantic and idyllic all the same,
Refulgent and bright in the myopic’s eye,
Abstruse to the ignorant mind,
Keen to the witty’s wit.
Ebullient in the face of melancholy
Classic during the day, but
Habitable and hospitable in a humble way....

The sun's flirtacious wink woke me at dawn
I smiled, lazily stretched, and stifled a yawn

I was teased by the touch of his warm hand
The power of his refulgent torch, I understand

His golden majesty then rose to brighten the skies
greeting the morning in such a grandiose reprise...

In Australia’s darkest hours,
an ever-growing pyre
breeds a conflagration nation.
desolation, ruination
ravaged seas of deforestation;
extinctions’ ignition
bleeds deadly
perdition.

Were Mother Moon habitable,
 the Koalas might escape,
scamper, flee
finding solace within
her refulgent body,
borne upon angel wings.

The days of dying summer heat give way to Autumn’s chill.
The crispness in the air is sweet; the moon too full, must spill.
The refulgent Harvest moon marks shorter days, longer nights
Ending the growing season before harsh, hard winter bites.

A large oak amid resplendent waves,
many a raging tempest it has braved.

Now beneath palette of chromatic sky
magic waves of light go lilting by.

Refulgent incandescence in abstraction;
alluring scintillation, gifts satisfaction.

Nimbus’s heartbeats in hues of elation;
billow of watercolors, a picturesque sensation.

Harmonic is this heavenly concert,
rendering viewers spellbound, inert.
