Vacillate of mood, to humid brood
Then pour this deluge of the soul exude
Unhampered summer scampered into fall
Then back to tropic philanthropic farewell call
Plummeting barometer too temperate thermometer
Of cutting edge occurrences all uninsured assurances

Too sad, the soul will weep
Spent in what so pure the heart must keep
Measured inch by inch a mile a smile
Bluster of the moments that reduce in while
Drip dry dawn, enigma coming on
And why, should unto myself deny

To touch beyond the glassy sphere
Silence wanders here, wanders in degrees of clear
Too cold, the sudden shift from new to old
Left sullen on the face, relenting of a special place
And given in the rushes of climatic shifts it touches
But then again, much further through the storm has been

The blow that wakes the sun, a new day hit and run
In turn of lunar burn, and lift my eyes upon demise
For you became the rise of what was heavy in the air

I don't believe I've ever read such a graceful description of barometric pressure.



sadly beautiful, as always TD you pen masterful words--the use of assonance here truly caught my eye too.

Enjoyed.

Beautiful as always Kathleen...

You have a gift of using words,  making them
so unique while writing of something so very
common.  The mark of a true poet.....
