Nested Antitheses

In the thunderous
  tranquility
of this ancient
  forest,

beyond the whirlwind
of man’s illusions,

dead leaves
tipped in Winter
  frost…

Spring buds
fresh with dew…

each lingers
just long enough
to sing clearly
of infinite change…
in continuity!

Wonderful one.
"each lingers
just long enough " gripped my heart.
Love this one.

I've been hearing a lot about "change" lately, but none of it sounds this good.
This change is good for the soul.

Secondhanddreampoet,

This works well, infinity is such a nebulous concept.

So true... more should stop to smell the flowers & read work such as yours
