METAPHYSICAL
POETRY

SPIRALS FLOWING,
SPIRALS WITHIN,
SPIRALS AROUND,
SPIRALS CONTINUITY,
SUCH AS A SPIRAL STAIRCASE
FROM FIRST FLOOR TO LOFT.
SPIRALS WITHIN ARE
MESMERIZING,
SPIRALS WITHOUT ARE OUT.
SPIRALS IN NATURE ABOUND,
IF ONE LOOKS AROUND.
SPIRALS IN WATERFALLS RESOUND,
IN STREAMS OF HYDROPHYLLIC
FLASHING AND SPLASHING
SPRINGS.
FOR US, THERE IS ONE SPIRAL THAT MATTERS MOST,
AND
THAT IS OUR SMILES;
SPIRALS OF PLEASURE, SPIRALS OF NOT.
THE MOST IMPORTANT SPIRAL FOR ALL LIFE
IS THE DUAL SPIRALS OF DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID.
THE DOUBLE HELIX;
OH MY !
SPONTANEOUS SPIRALS, A BUTTERFLY UN-SPIRALING FROM A COCOON.
SNAIL SHELLS, SUNFLOWERS, AND GALAXIES.
THE FIBONACCI SEQUENCE EXPLAINS THIS PHENOMENON.
SPIRAL ON, SPIRAL ON...

QUEEN'S ANNE LACE,
FULL OF GRACE,
AND
HOME TO SWALLOWTAILS,
PARADING;
SWAYING
WITH RAIN-SOAKED FLOWER STALKS,
YET
REACHING HEIGHTS,
ONLY
LAST YEARS UMBRELS AND STEMS COULD
HAVE IMAGINED.
VENUS RISING & GAIA SIGHS
November 19, 2017
GAIA LOVINGLY WATCHES
OVER THE EARTH,
GIVING ALL OF HER METAPHYSICAL BEING TO ENSURE UNIVERSAL HARMONY,
UNTIL VENUS RISES IN THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE, AND THEN SHE SIGHS.
GAIA SIGHS WITH THANKFULNESS AND PEACEFUL SHUT EYE...
GAIA REJOICES
November 4, 2017
When the chestnuts fell,
Gaia rejoiced,
As the chipmunks, squirrels, and deer
fed upon their bounty.
Today, as the chestnut leaves fall,
Gaia rejoices,
As the soil receives
humus-forming bounty.
Gaia rejoices,
And We rejoice...
ONE WORLD
ONE ATMOSPHERE
November 4, 2017
Across the clouds, I see maple leaves fluttering fluidly,
forced from their petiole attachments
by a south east wind.
The verdant horizon,
of white pine and Frasier fir,
blends with the patchwork quilt terra form
of Appalachian mountain ridges
and deciduous woodland forests
of browns, and oranges.
Vapors & misty foggy clouds rise into the troposphere
on the journey
into oneness with the stratosphere, condensing into more clouds and vapors...
One World
One Atmosphere
A Mountain Top Woodland
on a Fall Afternoon
October 25, 2017
Ebullient moments
and effervescent laughter,
song birds eloquently proclaim, diverse and elaborate pleasurable harmonies.
The sounds of leaves and acorns falling,
chipmunks and squirrels scampering,
a pileated woodpecker's call
and a ruffed grouse's drumming.
Your elegant face, highlighted by sun rays streaming through the canopy,
is to me,
the most alluring treasure within
this mountain top wooded sea.
Burning Bush Aflame
Winged Euonymus burst,
flame catching each leaf,
our beloved Burning Bush busting fire...
