it all can change in a small moment .............

Symphony

Within that silent whiff that
fills the vacuum , a rich muse
resonates and tickles the heart.

The mind drifts to a green path
that holds high above the sizzling
terrains in a hot day's layers.

Serpentine moments shed their
skins as pleasures lift the tides
over the boulders on time's shore.

The spirit dances on the tunes in
a timeless orchestra where each breath
is a note in a eternal composition

A truly musical piece that benefits from being read aloud, and I love the sound and sentiment of the term 'a hot day's layers' - harmony indeed. :)

A bit of Dylan Thomas, a whiff of contemporary nirvana but an unrelenting poetic impetus...

Inspiration is softly sent like a sweet scent on the air. Inside that ancient dream the body is lifted by the unknown that dwells within. It walk the garden road toward the unfolded staircase into consciousness. Slithering moment change their shape to meet that perfect joy that rolls in wave after wave. There within the ballet of thing and no-thing being finds that it is at the shoreline where the symphony plays its infinite music. Like a single note it pierces the flesh with it javelin of knowing. Yes I know this one well. Thanx for sharing it with me. It is so true. A poet friend//RH Peat
