Wordless

Carry me to a wordless world

On rippling currents of incandescence

Where music blossoms agelessly

Pulsing peace in every note

Upon the ocean’s cresting wildness

Rising on transcendent sunfire

Azure waters and azure waves

A thousand, thousand years of water

Let me rest in the ambiance of you

Luminous atmosphere of angels

There above that steep, rocky ridge

Reminiscing of a world ineffable

Inexpressible in wonder

Forever wordless.

 

Author's Note

“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing
and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass
the world is too full to talk about.”
― Rumi

Every line in this poem is so gentle, so endlessly lulling...you have crafted a beautiful world,
where the air would be rich with the sound of music, and the waves like molten gold under the brilliant sunshine. I take that by wordless you mean free from all arguments, and talks of war...a world as tranquil as a song...
"Upon the ocean’s cresting wildness
Rising on transcendent sunfire," are my favourite lines from here.

I so deeply appreciate your kindness and peaceful light that you bring with you. And yes, may the world find this place of life where war and hate are only distant echoes. Wishing you much inspiration in this new week, dear poet.

[Poetic Beauty]

Sounds like a beautiful place to relax and enjoy ones thoughts. A different world of "ones" own creating.

[An owl on the moon]

So grateful for your kind words here. Maybe for now that is what we must create; worlds of peace within.

[Fran Marie]

Yes a wordless world for a poet in an odd sense its much needed break for some..just to relax in sweet serenity in the ambience of the azure waves what a serene etherel feeling this piece displays... superb pen

Thank you so much, Fran. Each year I seem to realize more the frailty of words to speak of those deeper places in us all.
