Rhapsodized

Spring has just about sprung, yes? Along with so much more...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The silvery rain stings our faces,

   And the assault of April's discontent

     Awakens dreams pressed into

 

Empty

Wine cellars...

 

Purple crocuses bloom wild in woods

   Preparing for summer fantasy as

     Nature's rhythm,

 

Graceful like raving lovers reunited,

 

          Unveils dormant spirits waiting...

 

                To be reborn...

I ADORE the alliteration in the first three lines... Simply beautiful... This poem was amazingly stunning. It's going to be added to my library. Simple fantastic. The feeling is so... "classic"... I don't know any other way to describe it. Fascinating and great picture too. 100/100 across the board!

Beautifully written friend xx

So beautiful. Picture was very beautiful also. I like the feel of possibility and new hope in the poem. I wish I could write and say so much in so few words. I enjoy your poetry.

Intriguing, the sparks from such words as "sting," "assault," "discontent" in the midst of otherwise graceful lyric flow.

Much like the friction inherent in the erotic vis-a-vis the romantic, I suppose.

I find this rite of spring's awakening of "dreams pressed into/Empty/Wine cellars" particularly striking.

Your touch is nimble, nuanced, sublime.

this is why I love reading your poetry! IT IS GOOD!

[Eagle Cruagh]

No, it is not beautiful ! It is fresh and green
and frothy like the spring. It is poetry.
You have captured the essence of mercurial
fluctuation in the weather and in the human
that suffers such nuances.

I look forward to reading more of this fresh,
vigorous, stimulating passion from a gifted
artist.

What a profoundly beautiful write, moving us into the newness of life in the spring.. of the world.. of hearts.. It's like a dream that awakens... Wonderful, enchanted form and flow...
