Behold the pregnant, silvered moon
Full mirrored in the shimm`ring sea
Then shining low at early dawn
The sun, as golden filigree
Reflecting in the dancing waves
To crown each glorious day anew
The sky a dazzling oriflamme
Soft glist`ning in the morning dew
And see above the drifting clouds
As o`er the land their shadows creep
Like ghostly spectres ling`ring `pon
The hills and valleys, nestling deep
Then hear the mighty oceans break
Against the rocks, so cold and grey
Resounding `cross the des`late shores
To crash, untamed, then fade away
For "as above then so below"
The large reflected in the small
So too the all-pervading power
Lies deep in every living soul
Reflected in each beating heart
Each single atom, small yet vast
As there within each grain of sand
The boundless universe is cast
So e`er the threads of thought unwind
Each fantasy, inspired, to spin
Reflections of the inner self
Where all is still, so still, within

Hi,
You have a wonderful talent - but I'm sure you know that - because in every one of your
poems there is nurture, where each line is a ripple of the previous line. Much like the sea
carressing a pebbled beach, and receding, leaving each pebble shiny bright and invigorated.........
Symphonia!
Tommy

This is another fine and highly evocative poem from your fertile pen. Loved it! May I make a suggestion? In my very humble opinion, the poem would be much improved without the Romantic Era ploy of dropping syllables with the use of an apostrophe. Modern usage of "it's" "their's" etc is, again in my humble opinion, much preferred. Still a superb poem. |
