Lazarus Sun

sorenbarrett

Orange blossoms Intoxicating, with angel trumpets so sedating, a butterfly, a painted leaf, dipping and floating in the oozing breeze, that plays the leaves, clapping so gently, in soft percussive reverberations, varying fluctuations, creation's symphony in harmony, flies droning, a bee's vibrato humming, cicadas in ostinato singing, morning birds in staccato with call and response ringing, a cricket's call, a waterfall, birds splashing, punctuated with rests and silent pauses, without causes, trees creaking, shadows speaking, with a kaleidoscope pattern ever changing, rearranging, silhouettes and sunlight, with shadowy splotches and bright blotches, clouds drifting, ever lifting, swirling and billowing, a rain drop pattering, dust scattering, minnows shoaling, thunder rolling, water on water ripples making, the heavens quaking, cloud bottoms breaking, a deluge falling, wind's squalling, in crescendo, rapid tempo, then diminuendo, rivulets forming, joining and swarming, water flowing, its noise growing, downward to the pond, all baptized, revitalized, washed and cleaned, now redeemed, a new birth, all are one, a coda under a Lazarus sun

    Just think - I would miss all this, if I don't 'get my coat' and 'get out more', as the sayings go! Well, I might not need a coat if it's warm enough. lol.

      Thanks Orchidee for the read and comment. Yes nothing like a walk in the country.

      'a bee's vibrato humming, cicadas in ostinato singing,'

      ' the heavens quaking, cloud bottoms breaking,'
      delightfully worded, a delicious read
      words roll-off and twist that tongue
      while showering that internal voice
      with serenading worded musicality
      Brilliant!
      (a study of that nourishing Sun's
      symbolic daily rebirth
      Ra, Helios, Apollo or many other
      names, its lore endless
      no wonder the annals of humanity
      do so laud and acclaim
      our emblem of Phoenix rebirth
      that great, Sun!)
