Blushes Sweep Smiles



The future grins in anticipation
of a poet's wings to spread wild verse,
a rhythmic flap of generosity
works its wondrous way towards
wisdom's welcome rolled sensuality,
and emotions twirl inside a feathered flow
as truth sprinkles fresh drops of thought.

White ripples collect imagination,
compassion weaves steps of promise
into star speckled oceans of summer reflections
while personality floats treasured twinkles
in eyes full of spirituality; coloured swirls that dance.

Sentimental sections of existence slide sounds
of mysterious expectation softly beside sighs
that slip seductive sorcery into a nest of creativity.

Perhaps a precious peek into vulnerability
will open sorrow's purse, or joy's curious kindness,
certainly musical beauty is always in streams
where freedom's feet paddle ideals.

Architectural language spills romance
across an atmospheric performance,
blushes sweep smiles under respectful scenes,
and universal songs catch the light,
perfumed wisps of pleasured beats of the heart.
