Equinox and Paradox When a poet takes a ladies hand In clasp above the timeless sand They bond beyond eternals rim Be it real or dreamer’s whim. Their entity turns vivify That flies an endless ageless sigh Shed their stilted corporal seeing Become as one, in their being They occupy a world of sun Become in fact a sum of one The globe is now of colored hue Of greens and pinks and gold and blue. They’re chameleons ever changing Lovers ever rearranging From butterflies of festal awe To stars that shine the evermore They float upon the equinox And live above the paradox. |

In gifted verse and treasured rhyme he engraves this time with words sublime. When a lady sees the world thru a poets eyes ... his vision grants her the reprise of his wise realize. Upon whispered whim of wisdom's pen ... what was before ... will become again. When a lady reads between her poets lines ... 'tis there his rhymes define, his heart light shines. Like an artist he paints from inkwells of gold, pen stroked masterpieces for her heart to hold. When a lady takes a poets hand ... he'll build her castles in the sand Her every wish ... his command ... and he will forever be her moments grand. ~*~ ~*~ *winkiewinkie* |

"They float upon the equinox And live above the paradox." And that, sweet poet, is profound. |
