from the vision of the sun

Oh, how the trees sparkle
Swaying with currents of wind
How the birds swim
On the clouds, our very breath
Floating with the imagination of children
The colors grow and grow and grow
Landscapes speed by hills and swills and sunlit thrills
Until you and I and the sites and sounds
Appear as one as a ball in the distance from the vision of the sun
Silhouetted against a canopy of stars
We become one another
Ride the jet stream back to the stratosphere
Fall and return as loose petals and seeds speckling the ground
Each unique and vivid and alive
The scale changes like perception
So powerful to the eyes
The mind becomes painted alongside the surprise
Of such a gift
A setting sun smiling across the skies
Graceful dancing arms
Imitate the free form of flowers in May
So full of life
So full of beauty
A lioness prowls
With cunning eyes so full of undeterred duty
A mother carries her newborn to the swing
Rocking with the love and sentiment and motion
Of a hovering hummingbird feeding ripe juices
We all soak in the splendor of the sun
Days unfold these lucid dreams of reality
Of what passing emotional landscapes hold
That we are sweetly nothing but one vibrant and vivid and ever-changing mold.
