Wild Behaviour



Exquisitely fresh: a newborn language;
which burst from the shivers of colour,
somersaults in old bows' spectacular curves,
orange wisps communicate tomorrow's desire.

Drops of saturated hues travel
goose-pimples - their breath fearless,
skin washes silence across a pause.

Patterns combine movement
while shapes roar nature's presence
through leaves; shivered veins,
a dry sky watches performance poetry,
indigo waves of promise
scatter lives - humanity's shades.

Collisions explore corners,
still water drinks invisible ink -
smooth spirit; earth's rhythmic excitement,
compositions in between solitude's wish.

Artistic, professional surety
skips wild behaviour along the shores
of oxygen's silver tears.

With sighs dripping from the chin
I return imagination's paintbrush
and open my eyes; fiery laughter explodes.
