Kaleidoscope


Lusciously caressed by the sun,
my body is warmed by the rays
and through my closed eyes
the bright light spreads within
settling deep under my skin.

I surrender to the gift divine,
watching in deep rapture
the lovely kaleidoscope unfold,
dancing in enchanted mirrors
in a limitless variety of colors.

A passing cloud hides for a while
the mystical source of my bliss,
I slightly shiver when shadows
of gray delete in a brush of cold
my wondrous vision of pure gold.

The memory of sweet delight
lingers calmly within my mind
held together with silvery strings.
And I know, quite soon the light
will expand once more inside.

I see the Kaleidoscope of Life
in its alternating various sights
producing endlessly new scenes
I can detect only a great Charm
in this magically shifting work of Art.

In the end all the pieces of crystal
and mirror will fall exactly into place
showing the perfection of all that
I was meant to achieve and to be,
while living and creating my journey.

The shadows and the rainbow light
are clearly and harmoniously displayed
reflecting the Path on which I walk
in tears of sadness or in joyful laughs
all the time sheltered within Your arms.

Sustained in every single moment
by your Love which knows no end,
by your guiding voice playing within.
Gratefully I praise You my unique Light,
reaching out to You, to be held tight.

Hello
A very lovely poem and I love the picture.
I play around with digital photography and I made my violets into a Kaleidoscope of color.
Thanks for sharing your words of poetry.

Thank you Karilea, Seymour, Dixie and Bonnie for being patient enough to read this somewhat long poem of mine ...

Dear Bonnie, funny we replied contemporaneously on our poems (it happened also with Seymour!) and I read "Kaleidoscope of colors" in yours and "connected" with you ...I am sure your creations are wonderful!

Love to all, Margherita

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
