Red Balloon, Carrying a Tune

 Sojourning

west I begin my quest

searching for a sanctuary of rest

songs beating within my breast

brightly colored balloons carry me

beyond tall peaks of evergreen trees

catching your scent in spring's breeze

bursting with joy

a time of renewal

love

Silent Good-bye, Spring Arrives

Truedessa's Collection

in silence the sound of good-bye
melting winter snow, spring arrives
listen for the willows soft cry
in silence the sound of good-bye
awakening, strong roots survive
stretching upward, towards the sky
in silence the sound of good-bye
melting winter snow, spring arrives

welcoming upcoming spring

Author's note: I recently took this photo.
Can you see the pair in disguise?

Swaths of Color to See

The Wave - Pierre-Auguste Renoir - Wikimedia

choppy white waves

swaths of rippling blue

splashes emerald green

nature swirls with life

scattered palette of light

mixing hues

carrying a poets dream

flaming angel fish

rainbow of energy

wishing on a star-fish

movement of the tide

entertaining my muse

trying my hand at impressionism

with words

I used the painting to inspire my muse

Springboard to the Stars

 

springboard me among the stars

spiraling around in heavenly flight

sending earth, my fondest regards

passing through worlds of light

sprinkling stardust, healing scars

earthlings slumber, dreams of night

quietly slipping past portal guards

winged dragon, mysterious knight

slaying hearts in a cosmic courtyard

Tears to Giggles

Wikimedia commons

mourning doves sing a somber song
I wonder when does the sorrow end
I want to taste the bubbles of life
again

fill my flute with golden champagne
uncork fizzles of delight, let my spirit
once again sing in joyous giggles
of blossoming spring
