Rain eclipsing moods somber hesitating
briefly to allow filtered sun to
touch window panes, rooftops
steaming as though hiding a
cooked meal desired until the
smell of baked asphalt drifts by
before the rain drops begin
again lightly, then teeming
unceasing…then as quickly
ceases, the sun allowing a
flower to bloomĀ Ā Ā

Irridescent colors splashing a
kaleidoscope of lines a
blank canvas of thoughts of
imbedded experiences
waiting to arise, to awake
out of the vastness that
is silence

Oceans teeming with life, abundant,
thriving, reefs harboring creatures
microscopic to magnificant an
array of vastness undiscovered
waiting for exploration
Forests green, vegetation striking of
colors as brilliant as the hues
varieties remarkable, trees rising
giants a canopy covering all
animals within and beneath
Continents stretching, touching,
connecting to bring all humanity to
embrace, to share experiences, to
marvel at each unique knowledge to
understand the world in our care

Pencil busily erasing traces of
recognition, awards,
published success
leaving destruction, chaos,
tiny bits and pieces of
eraser eagerly consuming
letters, punctuation,
life unimagined, unscripted
Pause
Illumination
Ephiphany
Pencil busily resuming writing
lead consuming lines,
sentences, paragraphs,
pages arising, choreographing
music as a symphony a
standing ovation
Arise Please
Accept
Your
Award

Excitement personified, magnified
enthusiasm bubbling from under
the surface as a waterfall
thunders down creating a
foaming pool of energy
whence all accomplished
infuses wild happiness a
race won triumphant the
goal embraced yours

Extravaganza
Big Top Tent Giant unbrella
upside down covering the players
Circus clowns, acrobatic wonder,
trapeze artists flying o’er the
ring where elephants parade a
trainer taking the lead a
white stallion a lady riding
Cages hold tigers and lions
trainers engage death defying
acts with rings of fire blazing
coaxing them to jump all
through as with ease a bow
performance taking
Grandstands holding the audience
wide eyed staring in disbelief
eating popcorn, cotton candy,
peanuts as somesaults take place
high above their heads, below
fire burning a building a
fire hose extinguishes
