Harmonic Echoes

Harmonic Echoes

A Poem by Jack...

 

 

 

 

Harmonic echoes

 

 

In echoed voice I shall shout the truth

beyond waning sunsets with colorful smiles

and fields of snow covered poppies in blooming dance,

waving at me in the breeze like they know me…maybe they do

 

Standing here above all else,

feeling taller than I should (but small in the grand scheme of things)

builds a certain strength in my heart…

energizes this tired, worn out man with new life

 

Breathing the altitude’s winter’d air,

a rush of splendor entices a gleam in my eye

For whatever beauty I may see, there is always you

and I truly want to look nowhere else

 

I have climbed this peak, fought the terrain, the cold,

clawed and scraped on this wondrous day,

so that the world below, humming their own tunes,

meandering like ants, performing their duties oblivious to all

 

Would hear what I am about to say…

As it is in this moment of stillness,

this peaceful serenity that I conquer my fears, eyes wide open

pulse racing in fevered flow as…anticipation swells

 

Taking a deeper breath burns my lungs, but in a good way

as I move two steps closer to the edge, gather my balance

and shout from this apex of the world…

“I love you”…in hopes these harmonic echoes find your ears

Taking a deeper breath burns my lungs, but in a good way

OOOOHHH You Did it again !

This no doubt was tested,tried and truth from the Harmonic Spheres.
this came straight from the mans testes, thru his heart, and out his throat :-)

Dang ! Every beat was drummed from the earths core, I knew the rocks stood in ovation
When you said:
I have climbed this peak, fought the terrain, the cold,
clawed and scraped on this wondrous day,
so that the world below, humming their own tunes,
meandering like ants, performing their duties oblivious to all

I knew you damn well lived it , fought it and conquered it !
Truth always rings true Jack!
You know it and I know this ring was in precise tuning !

Wow ! I think you just shot a life's supply of testosterone with it :-)

Thank you Marie
In the moments of stillness, after climbing high and going low, we want to enjoy the balance and serenity of stillness. We want the mountains and valleys to echo the harmonic sounds. We want anticipation to be of good cheer...A wonderful poem...:).................
