Hyperventilating

Inspired by my sweet poet friend Frieda. Thanks for the wonderful words and photo...

 

Hyperventilating

 

Zephyrs breach this cobble wall

Gusts of morning glory breezes

Swirl enchanting echoes about my weary mind

I reach for the top, pulling myself to my feet

So that I may see that which is calling

In gale force phrases of poetic vistas…finding me

 

“Hallucinating?”

 

Breathless, I lean on moss covered stone

Weakened by mystic dreams and sighed fragrance,

For the beauty which engulfs my sight

Of lavender reaches in ribbon’d flow,

Brush strokes of cocoa eyes smiling

Grasps my body, wrapping me in passion’d bliss…touching me

 

“Hypnotically”

 

“What magic is this?” I call out from the shadows

In wheezing voice of broken harmony

“Tis love,’ she whispers as my breath escapes

Clutching my chest in fevered emotions

Wide eyed dimensions course my now beaming face

As all of life has bloomed within my being…and I fall

 

“Hyperventilating”
