The Morning SUN ~ through the kaleidoscope

 

through the kaleidoscope focus I

embraced by the grace of the lambent sky

the morning sun I to greet

color, sacred form, light to meet

through the kaleidoscope beauty perceived

flowing interchange in the now conceived

a treasure trove of light, the gift of SUN

as form, flow, and breath become ONE.

Through the Kaleidoscope

Through the Kaleidoscope

bits and pieces

shards of glass and gems

tokens of treasure and time

tiny sea shells

stones and crystals

artifacts of earth, of sea

in reflection’s embrace they be

a kaleidoscopic wonder I to perceive

from light, matter and intention conceived

wondrous be each cycle of change

all in reflection and bearing its claim

each turn of the lens, each breath taken anew

the beauty of sacred geometry gifted onto you

when the eye calls to such sensibilities divine

an exaltation, an exaltation, of body, spirit and mind.

Dreams Enfold

we gave a cry and all rejoiced for this our birth complete

we are our first steps greeted with open arms

our first word that brought an admiring smile...

trace the years and their memories await anew

a montage, a kaleidoscope, of one's life view

sounds, impressions, of place time and moments sweet

where our dreams and our days come to meet

praise, punishment, joy and pain come to define

a life known as rightly yours, a life lived as mine

and what brings reason to pause this very day

but the wondrous Creation given by Life along its way

a sculpture unveiled and all in AWE and PRAISE

for what each has brought to their ennobled days

and then a painting, a poem, an endearing embrace

upon a time line of memories now they to place

decades of moons have brought mystery and delight

magical be this waxing and waning of Creation's light

and so this heart, this soul, in time's grasp and claim

be held in the spirit and glory of our Creator's name

be it of yesterdays or days yet, and dreams enfold

each new gaze, a breath, a sigh, be this our story told.
