Passion and intensity of Spring

Poem Artwork

I had to cut my daily walk short
because my bad leg didn't want to
move. Wrote this in one breath
so forgive the haste;-) (*.;.*)



My mind is a maze
of  mystic madness
that cannot process
the glory of creation
on a spring day that
shouts Creator's love
in all the beauteous
blooms vibrant purples
blues pinks whites yellows
reds new births of birds
with new songs sung
under aqua skies where
sparkling sun sends rays
of life giving warmth to
everything it touches...
now we thank that
which we cursed before,
because the duality
which our impatient
puerile minds can never


understand, how the
same rains, snows, etc that
cause such destruction,
can be the cause of such
delight, yet every mother
that gives birth, knows
the agony and the ecstasy
as does every father that
shares the situation can


affirm it and nothing can
attest to it more than spring
season which shows us the
reality of the duality in all 
of its splendor, the passion
and intensity of the
agony and the ecstasy

What's that old saying? " No Pain; No Gain "
It's that way in every aspect of life, we just have to know when to duck!
That photo is stunning Eileen, did you take the picture?
I'll be praying for relief from your leg.
I always enjoy your work.

Too many of us, myself in that group, plod along and miss out on looking for and seeing the beauty around us. It is true that beauty can be found in an anthill, if you but looks. It seems that you are forever looking, Eileen, and you have nothing to be forgiven for, great write.

nature is the microcosom of the macroscosom ... it encompassess oder and chaos, "agony and ecstasy" ... in order to be whole, we need to balance the experience of uinversal design ...

splendid images to this metaphorical delight ...

Beatiful palette full of color. The world is beautiful when nature has her way.an is the culprit tht destroys beauty. It's so simpple to define but yet....greed holds the brush. I love the photo and your words carry the photo a step further for me.
Thank you,

Since we are "just visiting" this planet, I suppose we should marvel at, more than question the extremes of nature. She is in her glory as thunder and lightning blast the sky and the the high tides and swells slap the water abandoned sands once again. Perhaps it is mother nature's way of rearranging the furniture. ;) If not for man and beast, it would matter little her snits and rages. This is a gorgeous Springtime write, Eileen. My gardens are coming to life and my lettuce is growing more everyday. I haven't planted my tomatos yet, but perhaps in a couple of weeks. I am hoping that spring isn't coming too early this year and that Mother Nature doesn't have another snowstorm up her sleeve...some rain would be mighty nice though!! No birdies nesting yet so there may still be another chilly surprise in our future.
Take care,
Sherry

An enchanting and highly visual composition, Eileen that displays the duality of Nature and the all embracing love of Creator..
You are right, everything that is worth preserving and enjoying, must first be endured and suffered for, before we can taste the eternal
joys of salvation..
You excel in these masterly metaphorical compositions..
I hope you get back into your stride again soon too !
Blessings
Peter
