Droplets of water
Cleansing nature’s soft palette
Flavorful sunrays
Every day is getting longer,
find your natural remedy;
Bathe in sunshine and the sea,
run with spontaneous thunder;
A flush is dragging you under,
leading you to serenity;
Every day is getting longer,
find your natural remedy;
Intensity has gone darker,
it happens almost too slowly;
Always returning faithfully,
poetic sunrays grow stronger;
Every day is getting longer.
powder puff clouds laze
o'er fields of hued floral flame
mellow sun glimpses
These rays. These angelic wings!
These arms of the Lord!
What lights the world, lit moreo're
Of Love's gold record.
sun glazed awful sweet
dark cherry purple and blue ~
while orange rays pour

Small Talk Delayed
David J Walker
The days dawn falling in
Uncertain brokenness
Strangeness
came in waves
of multicolored
Cool sunrays
Nothing would be the same
He said
But nothing ever is
Instead
Of small talk delayed
The gardener went about
his business
Pruning the garden
midst blue wintry haze
welcomed sunrays
find their way on tiptoe
and at bay window
the content kittycat
purrs sleepily

first sunrays
steaming off
the chill of morn

The length and lines that makes crevices
On your skin
I find beauty in the infinite things
Created to fulfill our curiosity
Are the empty spaces
Where time escapes the confines of our great galaxy
There is a place I know exists
Beyond what we will ever experience
All we embody, all we breathe is
The now
Until we catch a glimpse of the sun
We feel undone by the safe escape it provides
And we want to live forever
In the warmth
When the cold returns for its long dance
I will turn to you
For guidance
Tell me all you know about our world
It doesn’t matter
The lines that fill your eyes
When you squint
Will live with my spirit
And make my days
Like unlimited sun-rays
winter sunrays
heart and soul darting through
the stained glass window

SUN RAYS
Surprise of Sunrise tends to set on promise of next dawn.
Sun rays scattering on Earth regulate diversity in Life.
Neither miracle! Nor Supernatural! Just Evolution.
Dancing Sunrays
Arising with the breaking dawn,
basking on the verdant lawn,
called to wake by morning song,
sunrays dance the whole day long.

Sunrays
Heavens entry with sun rays of golden honey
Silent prayers yield skies of blue heraldry
Cool early night arrival, time of autumns shedding leaves
Tree boughs amber and bronze patches
Water color cotton candy, sunset splashes
Shade screen unfurl to the wind
As autumn leaves start to ride on sail and find
Quenching thirst of the clean, sweet air
To see when our eyes are open to October
Sunny laughter where robins sing
Grounds on fire rich golden orange, browns, reds cling

Fables are told today
Only on past golden days
Love is what we’ll make today
Loneliness will be ashamed to stay.
Oasis as longs for rain,
Wacky me to get a swain,
Iambus we long to gain
Naiad I shall play again.
Gaiety will be brought back to gain.
Tabard you will be wearing
Hallucinating, spell casting;
Earnestly I’ll be waiting,
Surrounding your hypnotizing.
Ubiquitous glee will eradicate dark.
Never ending exquisiteness,
Rabidity seeing of such love you made.
Abashed cheek will make you a pearl
Yaffle of green love tree will sing a song
Sabbath will announce that holly concord.
The sunrays
its own treasure-
humble stream.
