New Year's Eve
Late yestreen I saw her here, A waning time to start the year- The mellowed minute mildly passed, and ne'er within a lime-like Jade did the smoky sounds of a lyre play. A pleasing Jacinth scent had spoke of hallowed haunts of long ago- And a slumber in which she was placidly placed prompted me to come, in haste, to open her all-seeing eye: to feel our aspect from inside-- A vision of prospective thought: an image of perfection caught! That curious iris, oft shut closed, that deep set eye of antiquity told of happy-havings never to fold; a transmutation of the soul! Chalk the marks near sevenfold, here the future was foretold! Contemplations -beauty and solemnity The musings of a middling day: a Circadian chaunt that never strays- Pleasing to the half-shut eye are the routine ways of meandering time! I was glazed in meditative thought when deep in the parting day I caught a vexing vision that vanished near- A tribute to She that then appeared in the fragment of a fading frame, which frequented Fuchsian tones untamed. Against the translucency of the sky was heard the crashing cross-directional tides, that like an omen, ceased to sound, at a moment which circulated round her gaze upon this wide, wide world- As wide as ever was so told by the prophets in their gaze! The Orchids dragged in a droopy daze, and a brazen fusion ne'er was seen of beauty and solemnity. Symbols Fine, fine, flora on the vase, I touched the bloomy base. Obsequiously she came to me lined with a lucid face. An amphoral type it was, this vase, affected by the mind- A plethora of trickling tones had teased her untamed, wild eyes! She wrought her gaze upon the words thus written in the air. Luminescent were the signing curves so all should see them there. Phantasmagorical were these signs, ever-changing with quick time; She, with all conceptions lost, dropped freely with a chime. An eyesome beauty never was seen- A scene so mystery-marked! Her sinuous curves were lit against the signing in the dark. Suddenly, she stood again, a presageful look she held, as she came up close to me to say what had her felled. Slight from the drop, her clothes had been, exposing most of all, her skin upon a rising chest that bore some symbols scrawled. She spoke of the great God, and the piquancy of life! She brought to me sweet knowledge: the harmonious end of strife. Ascension The wailings of a thaumaturgic dirge, the Spellman's song of yore, was heard midway the soft lea where an effulgent ray was born. Across the fields, and down the tract, She walked as the sun does, moving westward toward the spot leaving daylight as it was. Her eyes told of the cosmos high, wide, and ever-bound- I wondered what I witnessed as the shining light she found entrapped her body in its beams, She started then to shake, as the Spellman's song grew louder and vibrated on the lake- And then to hear her sing along! Her murmurs' mangled measure turned my surprise into fear, and then, into great pleasure. She lays down on the grass and makes an angel on the spot, her soul was lifted then, leaving darkness on the lot. It was a place that I once knew: temperate fields of diurnal dew! A land that murmured spectral songs, that once had enthralled hoards and throngs. I felt the essence of the place, where all but one soul was displaced. The temporal signs of sunny May came streaming through a never-ending day, and miles deep I heard her say: miles deep I heard her say-- An instantaneous night had then appeared! From day to night, I felt her near! She stepped from a spot of enigmatic brume, a visage you have never seen, here against a tumultuous moon! Her floating eyes, they led the way, standing like Artemis, I heard her say--nothing . She was my metaphysical guide, leading me to come to find, the cosmic boundaries of my life; the energy flowing that was rife-- And she needn't say a word to show, the ways in which the rivers flow. © 2015 MysticMeasure |
