See, touch, taste, hear...inhale

Awakening in a highly sensory, perceptive mood today

My senses attuned to the wonders of Mother Nature

I have the need to hunt the simple pleasures of life

I taste the sky, I swallow the moon whole

I sense your heartbeat, it weeps, I absorb your pain

Colors, colors. I close my eyes...hear the colors undulate

The stars they twinkle, to the beat of the drums. I see the rhythm

Early morning coffee assails my nostrils, the world awakes!

+++++++++++++++

Dawn’s brush paints the sky in hues of rose, blessed be my eyes

Silhouettes emerge, trees stretching tall, I reach out, touching

Morning dew clings to leaves with the secrets of bees, I taste the honey

And shadows retreat, chased by the sun’s warm call, as silence ensues

The sun rises over the horizon, ushering soft aromatic morning dew.

+++++++++++++++

Birdsong permeates the rise of the sun, painting the sky yellow/gold

From hidden nests, birds chorus to life. Tasting freshness in a newborn day

Rustling leaves, laughter, and a distant church bell, aches the heart

Cool grass yields to bare feet, aromatic greeting of the earth’s embrace

Fingers trace dew-kissed petals...fragile.

Ancient...
