When one with oneness, heart's on the upswing

Our days are numbered- till first day of spring

when unencumbered, she can start her fling

wake winter-slumbered buds for their upswing!

Beard wearing goes in cycles in men
Women not so much, avoiding the trend
The midst of an upswing
More manly's the thing

upswing and downswing,
both the zing and sting,
a beauteous dance,
viewed in nonchalance.

there then’s no purpose
of earth life circus,
for souls who are still,
aligned with God’s will.

Tonight I thought passion would bring
But not in the shape of a bed spring
The very moment I peaked
I felt what was breached
Now I am so very hampered in upswing

Carriage of soul
Wanders alone
In thought. The bone
From rails creaking.

Nightingale dips
To warble, sing.
Hymns on upswing
Drive soul afire.

When my spouse gets into this décor thing,
you might as well forget about dinner.
Our backyard lighting is on the upswing
meanwhile, I’m getting thinner and thinner.

A Robin lifted my soul as it took wing
on the breath of Spring.

Red breasts caught my eye;
against a blue sky.

Donning Spring's costume;
color inked each bloom.

And upon the ground;
green grew all around.

I heard a bird sing;
and on that upswing,
a Robin lifted my soul as it took wing....

Prime pretty play,
Use unzips urge;
Laugh lovely lay,
Swift sensuous surge;
Etch ends empty.
Thrill touching think,
Oops opts only.
Indulge in ink,
Move much musings;
Pique piquant prime,
Unfurl upswing;
List luscious lime,
Sense subtle sketch;
Echo each etch.

Isn’t it amazing all the snow winter can bring?
Just when it is time for the arrival of spring?
Cold air, bitter wind, and sad thoughts sting.
As white once again, covers everything.

Longing increases for the birds to sing.
Chirping melodies, as they flap their wings.
Into the skies, with new flights in upswing.
We stand with patience, as winter clings.

True nature brings the force of God
before apparel ~ springs.
No livelihood suggest its own
more than the suiting's ring.

And as I loved thee, sought unknown,
the moments seemed to sing,
when asking for the will of God,
I found thy love's upswing!

No counter cross, my mind's emboss
is fetish with re-string,
while thee in natural bounties clause
stay gift ~ stay everything!...

Although near June casts its heated upswing
Vibrant weaves of blooms adorn field's aisle ...
‘Oh,  let  me relish five more days  of spring’
Where tulips and dogwoods pose to beguile!

Oh let  me relish five more days of spring,
Where tulips and dogwoods pose  to beguile
May’s grandeur  tossing  its hues...so I fling--
‘Oh  let  me relish five more days  of spring.’

Vibrant weaves of blooms adorn field's aisle ... ...:
‘Oh,  let  me relish five more days  of spring’
Where  tulips and dogwoods pose  to beguile!

Weave that spell of magic,
Wean away everything tragic.

Where in the world were you so long?
Well, for you I could have always walked that extra furlong.

When moods are in the upswing,
With it well being it does bring.

Wading troubled waters hand in hand,
Weariness beware, we will send you to remand.

What does love mean to both of us?
One factor that binds us without any fuss.

Why for Valentine day would we need a reminder?
When we celebrate love every day of the year....

George Bailey taking the icy plunge,
Clarence saved him being his guardian,
a close call,
for Bedford Falls,
saved town from tyrannical bug,

The heartwarming scene at the end,
where townsfolk contribute a dividend,
hearing a ring,
angel got his wings,
poor Uncle Billy's pink slip pending,

George's life finally on the upswing,
till Uncle Billy forgot one more thing,
work in his briefs,
townsfolk red cheeks,
indecent attire thrown in the clink.
