Reverie

A home away from the cries of the maddening crowd.. 
Fragrant rose bushes and lilies it pleasantly enshrouds.. 
A garden gazing the silently flowing river.. 
Scenic scapes of  land makes the heart quiver.. 
Morn brings chirpy feathered friends to door.. 
Time for pensive thoughts and images to explore.. 
Noon yields to the languid dance of the autumn breeze.. 
Siesta brings peace and rushed...

Reverie

Post the day to rest and I.

Gentle night come lullaby.

Whisper to my ear and kiss my eye.

Set free the stars to reign the night,

Amber reeds, pliant 
in the summer wind 
swaying, dancing-
 
synchronised
                     now syncopated
and back again
 
shouting then singing xanthine etudes

"blessed zone"

These travelling shoes
lackadaisical partners
walk without weary wonder

they drift past
poplar-lined roads
into tangential horizons

and that is where
this wandering soul
goes off to, willing

and remembered only
by fleeted echoes
of short-memoried soles.
