FOR THE FEARLESS MANY

Folder: 
JOURNAL#18

a most delightfully dimming sunset sits

magnificently a top

my latest gripping muse

eclipsing why even that of childhood's

promise

with but a nearly forgotten rainbow's

hues

while the giant greens over head

gloriously glitter

as if thoroughly amused

a wealth of words is unmasked

as the blues dance dreamily about

as if to some silent haunting tune

one to which

the ruffled reds

youthful yellows

and daring oranges

unregrettably choose

to not so secretly fall in love to

and so very merry

at such joyous moment

is the giddily tucked away

milky white moon

so you see

I have come to live

so to generously share

the finer essence

of mine magical present

with the sleepier shades of a none

too distant yet

inappropriate past

where the object of mine mystical

endeavor

is rather to devise in my rosy

mind's eye

aspects of such intrinsic tender

visual beauty

so reverently blended

so to better seem

universally common

almost

in the breathtaking painter like

minds of the fearless many

so much so

that such pitched visions

shall upon numerous levels and

societies flourish

as never before

since all infinite forms of life

positively thrive

when bathed in brilliant color

warmth and light

for any great depth and goodness

in any individual is but a clearly

given gift

one for which

God all too gladly reaps............
