The world propels
In deafening zeal
A gale to face
Its constant tenor teal

The blur of wind swept noise
Decelerates in speed and poise
Crackling of a static white…drone of indeterminate light
Withdrawn the rigorous climb…descend the caverns of benign

Returning me to restful rhythm
Confident, the shades draw with them, peace
Settlement of volley, par and lease

Of sable walls surround me
Candle lit, where right has found me
Silence lays a knowing hand upon my weary mind

That time has twirled the curls along my neck in tender vine
Into tune of inner voices soft and singing
Lathered in the scent of jasmine tease left ringing

Leaving not a button done

The chilly fingers of beseech meander linen drapes of peach
Where paisley socks mit painted toes, and comforted the less one knows

And pink the sunset dreams in audible collections
Savor long the well, to state of quieter selections

Very much enjoyed and the following verse is one I think I can find my own secret space in.
***************

That time has twirled the curls along my neck in tender vine
Into tune of inner voices soft and singing
Lathered in the scent of jasmine tease left ringing
**************

As I have found all of yours to be, a very enjoyable read.  You sit at your own level in verse.
