Twilight in all of her tones spoke to me
Great lessons making peace
Moderately working with midday
Limbs propelling against any weight
I stood in the tall grass at field’s edge
Requireing pure power, paceing in my head
The road decides colors of spice and sugar
Angles combined may twist in the water

Dogwood blossoms grow in bright contrasts
Working withered foliage, brushing together
New expressions firm my cheekbones
In times when I go totally without thought
I suppose a shawl of contentement
Turning my attention and bringing it home

Lest flames like volcanic ruptures, speak in low voice
Calling softly never tired of watching and learning our choice
The years are an honored progression, a comrade in disguise
Forms aimed toward the sound of any movement in our minds

Natural learning, pronounced in the ways of lose
Powerfully like directions playing tug of war
Remembering compositions floating with the breeze
Where nameless creatures begin to focus thoughts and read.

To have the ability, whether acquired or gifted at birth, to see and hear beyond the normal, is more than anyone can ask for...

it is where we learn that we are not alone.

Enjoyed this, Lee.  Thank you!
