Reminder of the promise;

On My vision of life stretching

Stretching, reaching wispy wonders.
An unwavering giant,
Unmoved by words or wishes
Standing straight, tall ... powerful.

Shall glow
Let them know
You are alive

Endless hills sprawl on and on,
Stretching horizon to horizon,
Here comes the dawn,
The hills sprawl on,
And bend in breezes to the sun.

Standing on your foot right
Raising the left from floor slight
Stretching arms straight
Closing both eyes tight
How long? your health is prefect

In wide eyed wonder
my love and I watched springtime
arrive in fields of
golden daffodils stretching
to where earth meets the blue sky.

The nonsensical makes sense
An alignment, not of this earth
Stretching beyond joyous moments.
Welcome, long lost Divine innocence.

as yellow clouds form halo
stretching eyes along the path
that the sun travels

Birds revel on shimmy petals
Fervid wings stretching over sepals
Thistles on the other side, live in deep purples
Whistles of portals imbued by warbles

My My
and tsk tsk
for the task
selfishness
lives in me
growing in the lines
rooted deep
stretching far
beyond imagined
My My

Mine Mine.

Light, you are this
Calm and translucent form
Stretching and bending
Through mending walls
Then you burst into
The radiant colors of
This silent autumn
