The Whisper of Spring

the honeysuckle

blossoms near the mighty

fountain of delight…

the gentle whisper

of spring

avalanche

of cosmic poems foretold…

the mesmerizing

sound of a different

drum

e-mails from

the naked poet of Oz…

ecstasy

of the lonely

heart

your magic

smile ignites the flame

whose energizing

force brings tears of joy

to my eyes

tempting me

with the forbidden fruit…

sound of heartbeat

you share

your laughter with me

this golden dawn…

a garden full

of dreams

intoxicated

with love, you embrace

the light…

dancing on my shadow

with passion

dining with

the goddess of the moon…

joyful lips

painting

the rainbow with a handful

of dreams…

the nectar of the first

flower of spring

This poem just piles image on top of image and gently leads you down a path to where:

you embrace
the light…
dancing on my shadow
with passion

and suddenly, for a moment there is almost intense activity, perhaps a hint of something to happen later?
