Disintegrating into rippling shards:
the crystal earth, at once, is liquefied.
A subtle smile of sunshine at my side,
an unexpected twinkling from afar –
and thus, my heart, as well, is eased apart.
And all the tantrums and those icy eyes
seem silly…all these heartless thoughts, a lie?
Dissolved, at once, beneath the burning stars.
Some unknown bliss, some unrequited plant
shoots, surging, unpredicted, from the core –
and could I wish it stay here evermore?
The scent of joy unfolds beyond its hand –
and would these seconds last for centuries,
such simple days could paint eternities.
Hope spring is arriving up in your neck of the woods. :)
ReplyDeleteI certainly hope so too...hard to tell sometimes in March and April!
