January Spring!

Light slate cloud cover
swimming pale
aqua-gray pastel

Ice berg roses of
cumulo-ivory bloom
White smoke
billowing beyond
wild bondi blue yonder

Connubial garden
chaste treasures of
perennial poesy
pretty trumpets
cerise pink peepers
sounding the young bride's
kismet bliss of
universal union...

double delights
splashes of carmine
and creamy white
sunsprite nimbus
haloing the velvet
summer rose of Tuscany

laved in warming
rayonnant compress blankets
zephyr swirling like a country pot
of soothing home style broth

slumbering white pine rootlets
cling to earth embedded dreams
rousant grouses
flutter wings
kicking up
elevated particles
of dirt and dust

Ruddy passions
burgundy bronze
clusters of playboys
perennial party girls
Oh young the bright faced beauties!

Fire dancers warble
skyward cortege
crescendos
melt water freshets
carrying the green resonance
of the Rakashi hornpipe
chasing hiemal demons

Maya blue melissa butterflies
self realized metamorphosis
aerial lilies of the soul!

Amitabha day dreaming
under the catalpa's cool
quartz cavern shade
palatial Mucilinda verdure

Immediate experience
Private meditation
Human soul transcends
here and now
eternal nature
awakening
mind reality

January Spring!

Deny me anything!

Seeking the
loving embrace
the primordial light
of God's lucent face

knowing I shall never be deprived!

Tacit heart of truth
vastness
exuding permeating
alluding
infinite patience
waiting
all observant one
unbound understanding
peeling back the self
preserved seal
suffocating all that I am

remembrance recognition
admittance acceptance

Compassion's omnipotent allure!

Florid trellis threshold
Nivana's imageless garden
flowering new Jerusalem
regenerate amaranth
Genesis bouquet
Jhana petals blossoming...!
