     Sent upon the wind

Twilight layers the azure lie
Euphoria spreads the sky.
Whispering censure in the breeze
Talking to the brooding trees.

Standing o'er the forest green
Shaking leaves at things unseen
Filtering light in wild coquette.
Kismet of illusions net.

Read the sounds upon the vale
Listen close to breaths inhale
The symbols hieroglyphic swell
The weeping deep within the shell.

Twilight plays a subtle mean
It speaks of things that are for glean.
My heart is full of verse and sign
I can but treasure it as mine.

Rest well within the gardens scene
Forever, rules my mystery queen.

Sy - of all the poems I read in the forums, yours are the ones that tease me best with every line - so unpredictable, and yet so right. I really enjoy your play with words that are not predictable.  This is another "Sy" poem - so well written, so smoothe.

Hi Seymour...
             Thank you for writing this...
           I love poetry that's interlaced
           with nature. This was exceptional
           and shows your observant nature!


Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
'the Present'!

Lngjhn said it best and this is "classic Sy". A touch of euphoria, listening to the winds. A superb poem

Seymour, your wordings tempt my senses and make me think.

Shaking leaves at things unseen
Filtering light in wild coquette.
Kismet of illusions net"

(Stll trying to figger out that "wild coquette")  

Enjoyed this lots
