Same roots, thirds, augmented fifths...

Four inches apart-
symmetrical walls riseing
towards infinity

Balance
symmetrical existence
life divided equally
peaceful calm, steady thoughts
equilibrium...

A tiny trail of
Fresh symmetrical
Water droplets,
Clinging to
This branch
What clever
Caterpillar is this
That glowing string of pearls...

hourglass of golden yellow
your symmetrical beauty
with a tiny waist
woman of the forest
autumn tender
few experience
wonderland of leaves...

CANVASSING A FEUD

symmetrical spots splatter
on a blue butterfly caught
in a feud between poppies
— the artist’s revenge

Great purple hairstreak
purple tip
Adonis blue
clouded yellow
four gorgeous insects with God-painted wings
Slender symmetrical ebony antennas
Known as butterflies...

Enduring
    symmetrical
       passionate 
           devoted
               steadfast
                   ineffable
                        friend




Written for Russell Siveys's "True Love Words"...

Stark,
naked,
bare,
stare.

Full,
pull,
forced,
gorged.

hammered,
stammered,
grammered,
wrote.

logical,
symmetrical,
spherical,
formatted,

delivered,
couriered,
in cell,
was the death sentence....

I had never seen one of these orange poison faerie frogs until now.
She was a beauty for sure, her spots were symmetrical, she was a wow.
I could not stop staring. After a bit she asked me to please stop.
I screamed as she made a move toward me with one giant hop....

See how the lowly myrtle
seduces the lordly pine. 
She entwines her arms 
around him,  he 
submits.  Beneath them
falls their issue: not 
flesh, nor sinew, nor bone, 
Only, sweet symmetrical 
cone, its perfect whorls 
and burls, the best 
of both worlds.

Vivacious sight 
                                     unflinchingly opens doors
                                         young gigantic hearts
                                        symmetrical vision flows
                                      nourishes wiggling feelings...

You may not be symmetrical
But when you smile 
You are beautiful
You may not sound intellectual 
But when you speak 
Still you are beautiful
You may not feel effectual
But when you cheer 
You are beautiful
You may not seem celestial
But when you laugh
Still you are beautiful...

Feet slip into shoes
Like CINDERELLA when she
Puts on delicate, luminous 
Glass slippers
We're a perfect pair
Like two symmetrical shoes 
No need to tie shoelaces!  
We're sparkling bright
Like precious, glass slippers 
We're the dazzling moon in the night
We're the perfect pair! Yeppers!...

My love is a flower
unfolded and symmetrical
decidedly delectable.

My love is a petal
seamless and silent
to a touch softly compliant.

My love is perfume
I am wont to consume
when it graces a room.

My love is a vision
of supernal design
who , thank God,
is gloriously mine....

She is way too symmetrical to play the violin.
Her circles are even, there are no mistakes.
She is not a flexible thinker.
The arguments arrive on an hourly basis.
In notes, texts and emails.
Yet here she is, playing the violin flawlessly.
Which means hundreds of people do not know everything....

It was a symmetrical disorder
With hidden messages
In the spaces and gaps;
It was a sufficient affair,
A journey to the Light.

Journey to love,
Journey to work,
Trials to love,
Trials to work,
Abundance to poverty,
Trials to both work and love,
Journey to religion,
Journey to the Light.

dainty painted lady butterfly
Australians claim you but so do I
your lively looks, your delicate way
enhances my garden on this Tuesday

delicate painted lady, your browns and white
bring me joy and happiness, loads of delight
Your spotted wings so symmetrical and fair
I love seeing you as you fly off into the air...

Leopard lady was svelte, showy, slinky and slick.
Her spots were symmetrical, her coat good and thick.
We got out of her way when she sauntered into town.
She was gorgeous in many ways in her turquoise blue gown.
She could pop a tiny hat on her head and be fashionable and chic.
We were thrilled to see her in all her finery; she was built like a brick....

Sunny is the day for the miracle
History's type set of it just clerical
The current lack of faith hysterical
My bonds with love given are symmetrical
May Grace's light shine even and identical
From the Atheist to Evangelical
Accepted were faithless and pontifical
For the Risen cared not, nor was asymmetrical
The life given for all, forever spherical...

I paint what I see
My canvas isn't white
Using purple ink
To paint a dark black sky

My canvas is a boy
I paint on his smile
He likes to play pretend
Tries to walk a mile

He walks with no shoes
Gravel between his toes
Digging into his bloody feet

Symmetry is but an illusion
The universe means us to believe
He broke the universe
He broke symmetry...

Music's Magic

                   Embedded within exist symmetrical pulsating rhythms

                   Attuned to voices in harmony chanting melodic hymns

                   Celebrating music as homage to cosmic consciousness

                   A passage through infinity imparting love and oneness

I love how it’s symmetrical,
Each side a perfect match.
In former days, when jeans were ripped,
It made the perfect patch.

To call someone a square, though,
Was insulting, but a deal
That’s square was something good, just like
Receiving a square meal.

We square away our debts;
A square dance can be lots of fun.
I could go on forever or
Go back to (pause)…square one!...

Cut me a piece of her horn, 
Take me a piece of her wing,
For my death she won't mourn,
But on my grave she will sing.

There is no love but death,
Cut me the wind of her breath,
Beautiful skin like a reptile,
Her caws cut into the back of the vile.

Yet her mouth shall not serve,
But serve only the one,
The circle is an a symmetrical curve,
Her true birth has just begun....
