nature releases her energies

inside
heaven collates an apt
density of quatrains

richly textured lines
bringing memory to music

poignant, humanized moments
moods held in your arms
startling awake
a
playful
self-indulgence
charmed

could this be levitation
with a recognizable
voice?

unfolding some subtlety power
entirely first sighted by a
hidden opulent
choice?

rendering comfortable
impulses
vibrating
with quiet
and passionate intensity?

I welcome that remarkable debut
turning a promotion of coziness
into some mutual enhancement
despite December’s amazing revenge
that walked by
scratching a warm familiar
wake up call

of nursery rhymes which now
turns me toward
some wildness of attentive
light…
more passionate
more intense
more plausible
with each daylight
vibrating it’s
graceful fleeting look

going off

disappearing
in some long
forgotten vacancy…
sound and
suggestive structured meter
energy transferred
to lighted
definitions
that are never
spoken
yet experienced

it is religion & science jointly
dancing
a faith of poetry driven growth

interest & employment
affirming passion
into demure vital elements
exactly what
the human beast longs for…

good fortune quivers a civil truth
thinking out loud
grabbing hold of
hot flashes
decay and death

elicit life, vital
in her movements floral
my God…
so startling, so naked and exciting

all of nature articulates enthusiastically
as if speaking for the first time
even though her concept may not be mine

decisive secret valentines
all curled up at our feet

the bang on the door,
has turned genius!
painting a mundane life’s chronicle
into moon stories
breathing me
breathing you
beating
beating
beating
innocent essays
fourfold visions

imagination seeks me
seeks you
reading experience
honed in on
the defects of me
quite unintentionally
I am a biological life form
about to breakdown
and rise again
breakdown
and rise
an interruption passage of great power
is the most surprising aspect of failure
which really fails not at all

oh this revolution of consciousness
placing widespread beliefs
into some
local
home grown spam
with survival gear…
healing truths
capable of hard shelled ego
such saving grace & vision

oh homer, you thread your way
measure for measure
illuminating
all
the
fine
print
that music detonates

***********

I'm in one of those high moods this morning, yanno?

I love to see nature release her energies LeeJ but when I read your poetry it's plain to see she has a rival. :-)

I live that verse.  In my heart.
You made my morning a blessing.
(Is that you dancing there??)
Big hug!!

It is hard to quote from your writings but I did enjoy the above and whatever mood you happen to be in always results in a tremendous read for us.  Thank you, LeeJ!

Whitman is smiling, wherever he is, and so am I after reading this poem....

Love it when you really hit your stride, this subject is a good one for you.
