Equanimity Of Desire

Yet, the heart has an intellect measured true to form
Sensing seasons through a hand in wintry mist made warm
Hearing, to the decibel, of silent volumes bleary pose
Ingrained of touch to troubled beat, imparting calm to woes

Yet, the heart contains the vision to be slow at start
Ultimately striking chord, a pounding breath may part
Most timely and remarkable, in pulse deep ebony
And coursing to the tune of time, in rhythm cordially

Yet, the heart unstoppable the drum of sweet desire
In give and take resiliency, yet compliment the fire
A drive compelled in jump-start grace sensing seasons through
To break in countless pieces still, each season to renew

BRAVO!!!!!
This seemed to me, multi dimensional

"Sensing seasons through a hand in wintry mist made warm"  Brilliant!


"Most timely and remarkable, in pulse deep ebony And coursing to the tune of time, in rhythm cordially"

metaphsically profound!

this was like a touch of mystery with an echo effect...romance at it's best....

Very much enjoyed!

Self control?
Sometimes it's best.
But sometimes you just can't help yourself.
No?
Great write Kathy.  Enjoyed.

And,  I do believe that Humpty Dumpty did
sit on a wall before he fell and had so
many cracks....

Like this a lot kiddo,  how well you work
the weather,  and all that goes with it.

I envy your talent, you know. Such eloquence and depth resides in your poetry.
