#splendour
Soul trespasser... You long for splendour... You are one of those who yearns for one-off occasions to chase after you. You’re remembering someone’s secret celebration in a place of strange perfection... A child that partied all night, became their own bartender and private dancer... That unique hotel’s façade declared adventure... But now there is a window to a dark wall of desire. Hungering for some old, solid friend there... You await their return, and when they do, you’re still lingering... wanting their whispers to declare... That this room has the very best view and mirror with you in it... For a life that feeds you more than you can chew... You’ll risk it. Won’t look back on that wardrobe journey... You’ve packed your bags, opened up in a new strange surge of wellbeing. Cobwebs from years of wild, winding worries – clear – As the brightest sun discovers you... On a functional vacation, joining the dots to a person... who no longer needs to fear or hear... or acknowledge you’re there...

Soul Trespasser
the city looming deeper in its final rays of clarity, the yellow of an embrace enticing like an unknown skin, a flock of dark birds moving like a promise, the feeling of the ****** self, hundreds of years of desire. never stop asking the impossible questions to capture the paradox of life, how much trust we need to acclaim its splendour something possesses this unseen something, it makes me shrill and tender, furious and ripe. how much disappointment can we bear. I want to be  engulfed by sunset like a fool, I stand with my eyes open for rain to fall into my dreams. love is something life invents to keep its honour, from the stones' point of view, love is mysterious, from the point of view of nothingness, it is everything that can fill the flesh, the empty space of atoms,  a sweet preserve. it teaches us to endure the hidden face of light at last she no longer possesses me, at last I possess her briefly like a window posseses the clarity of morning   I am humble, insatiable,  less blind, I am fierce and proud We are, says everything that simply is

at last
For her sundered from space and time at the dawn of phenomenon, not the little pettinesses of our world: and a portal to the unknown beyond - the sky flaming red at dusk, still in the lake the late summer hill little a bloom in the bush hidden, even shy a smile devoid of guile, little every joy here; Thought they, faint of heart she was: but every swoon carried her across the world of the river of lights In Her presence dawned on this forlorn our earth - Beauty since the beginning of time exuberant in the hills in the plumes and vales and in the cruel hearts of men; And grandeur, of the kind unbeknown before, as the king her father sewed up an empire vast; And perfection in works unknown before - in every weave and hew; All that men ascribed to her father the great.

Borrowed splendour | Sati -2
I appreciated your beauty But denied the pleasure And to make up for my failure I give you this treasure Words from my heart Describing your splendour Which gives beauty to the earth Queen of the galaxies What are you doing among men? For yours is a splendour above splendours And your smile is desired among angels And your deceptive innocent looks That melts the stone-hard-heart And sends the sons of men On a journey of day dreaming Wishing you were theirs. You, a perfect symbol of the Creator’s creativity You give me a picture of his paradise And send me on a journey of day dreaming Praying you are mine. But reality most a time is deceptive Like love within the verse I pray for the day I will hold you And feel you And your beauty Then I’ll recount your wonders To all men As love within the verse I profess.

**********
The splendour of glory, Stretched beauty Across the universe That none could reverse. Naturally occuring lights that leave any human mind in awe, They're called auroras;that's not all.. Big is beautiful!when you take a look at these huge sights of divinity, So gigantic they look like they've existed for infinity, Located in Asia is the mount Everest, King of the forest. And in America;the Grand Canyon, So grand I'd spell it in lights of neon. The great barrier reef found in the Coral sea of Australias north eastern coast is so beautiful, Naturally created by living organisms,its so beyond cool More like the view of the Rio De Janeiro Harbour, Another great sight to remember. Talk of  the beautiful,ever flowing and rainbowed Victoria falls, How to fully describe it,only God knows, Its location has brought its proud owners Zambia and Zimbabwe to unification, Indeed its a great destination. Sometimes flamey and always beautiful is the Paricutin a cinder cone volcano, Located in Mexico. As beautiful as they all are, You're a better star In the eyes of our creator.

The glorious seven natural wonders of the world
The stars are fading, the moon is falling. Above the midnight canopy lightens slowly; shades of gray, spreading out, day is breaking. Dawn comes with the rising sun. Light soars to fill the sky, red and gold, nights shadows chased before it, the Sun, resplendent in shining glory, bringer of the new day. Birds cry and leap from the trees, notes shrill and joyous, fair heralds of the day. The sun climbs slowly, beginning it's journey across the heavens, the sky, glorious in azure splendour. Clouds, wisps of shining air, frail in the light of day, change from the ruddy red and the the glowing gold; colors of the new dawn. Pearly white they grace the sky, celestial palaces and woodland creatures, the deer and the dragon, all in white within the blue. And so the noontime passes, clouds obscuring then revealing, the sun eternal rides the sky, and the clouds shine with light and the creatures of the air soar, crying Praises of the sun in shrill voices. Eventide, the birds glide down to rest, in the bowers of the trees. The light is green and gold, red and violet, white and pink, colors of the sunset. The sun falls in the west, the moon rises in the east, and at last the day is done, the Suns splendour vanished, replaced by the shining light of a pale moon, and the far away light of a thousand, thousand stars. And so is day ended, and night begun, the darkness given sway. The world lies in shadow, sleep takes the creatures of the sun, the earth lies in shadow, to await the new day.

Tribute to the Day
The stars are fading, the moon is falling. Above the midnight canopy lightens slowly; shades of gray, spreading out, day is breaking. Dawn comes with the rising sun. Light soars to fill the sky, red and gold, nights shadows chased before it, the Sun, resplendent in shining glory, bringer of the new day. Birds cry and leap from the trees, notes shrill and joyous, fair heralds of the day. The sun climbs slowly, beginning it's journey across the heavens, the sky, glorious in azure splendour. Clouds, wisps of shining air, frail in the light of day, change from the ruddy red and the the glowing gold; colors of the new dawn. Pearly white they grace the sky, celestial palaces and woodland creatures, the deer and the dragon, all in white within the blue. And so the noontime passes, clouds obscuring then revealing, the sun eternal rides the sky, and the clouds shine with light and the creatures of the air soar, crying Praises of the sun in shrill voices.

Haiku ( ********** )
And dreaming of Inisfáil, I was raised on Bolivar Pond. Sheltered in my wake, I’d coo as the dewy’d morning dove And fern in my bed, I rose to greet The song-splayed sounds of light And work, I made it dropping slow Bright in the summers swoon, I was adorned in forest eves By rings that rang from tree to rook, and flung the wingèd down, Brambled in bay, garland in violet When blades could ***** and not make bleed, And I was brindled by the moon’d many shades, that liken To a brook, and mottled in my main, noted among moss In that glow, once knighted we must serve Wood, let me comb in peace! Colored in the mantled cloth of leaves And bonny and red, I was the brave and the boon, the deer- Ants learned me, and herons stood muck, on stands spearing all mite And the vernal song sang lowly Swaddled in azure’s unfolding dream. At each turn was a season, nascent life charming in marsh Forays that brimmed the hollow rood, in clover yards, I saw The lilt of bees, sallied in clearings Brown as the yellowed beech Colored in sounds that beat the heart. And forth into the field I sprang unto that shedded loam And high was the sail that bellowed the raft that raked my pond, Bullied by the har-umph of frogs I rippled, rowing cat o’nine tailed tunes. Windy and free in the hollowed bark round the ****** bay I trailed the bear sniffing **** heard the hoo of a swooping vowel And wild in hare, dug the fox-hole up! Damp fires hailed the rising Moon, as fire-flies dinted the troutling pools And nothing I saw in my drowning sun could nettle or thorn My piney ways, nothing could rot my wood-craving ears For the kestrel’s qweet-a-quee rang holy In the skunk-flowered fields of Bolivar Pond.
