The face of wonder

Walk among the hoary trees
Set your mind to idle.
Let your senses play the breeze
Ease the tight of bridle.

Make the trip from now till then
Step beyond your duty
Look at nature once again
Gaze upon her beauty.

Structure awe once more in glean
And blend it with amend.
Let conscience touch gentles green
Attend the wondrous end.

Float gently in fantasy
Show confinement the door
And lightly taste the verdant
Savor life in the raw.

Splay and sway in its ballet.
Be a part of its bouquet.

in face of hoarfrost
awaiting spring of green bud
I am then reborn


No, I don't know why, I just know that your post made for this response, and I thank you for it....

I do so love looking at the world thru thy poetic eyes ...

there's so much that you can rise above.
I surrender heart and soul,
sacrificed to a higher goal.

"Ease the tight of bridle."...

"Savor life in the raw."

There is so much tension in life.  Your words are always a sheer soothing pleasure to read.  Wonderful write.

To bloom amongst the bouquet - There could be no greater joy, Sy... Neat poem, my friend..

Waft every crest upon your destined sea.
Embrace the Wave of Serendipity,
Lest its elusive arcane ecstasy
Refurl with sail for all eternity.

I am jealous of your views...waiting for nature to take it's course and bring me what you see...

I didn't see this poem until now!  I love the journey you took me on, in such feeling, meter, and rhyme - there are few things that delight me as much as nature!  Absolutely gorgeous!

Seymour, a beautiful poem. I loved it.
Can I ask a dumb question? What's a hoary tree?
