Essence for Turtle and Me

Poem Artwork

My journey of infinite paths
epoch of turtle and me
a forest in a nanosecond
maze passing thru the eye
on the eve on a whirlwind
ride of multi faced moments

Where branches weave magic
with their leaves in a tea that
one may drink of their rings of
knowledge for the years to be

Reality or dreaming one to ask
could it be that I am just in the
break of a storm at a turtle's
pace in circles for a much too
fast French fairy tale beginning
but for living love impassioned
by an Irish evermore ending

I sense that Ireland is but a turtle, and the Irish are riding on its mossy back.

I do like that verse about drinking in the rings of knowledge, really original train of thought. The recurring image of whirls and circles is a neat link from verse to verse.
Don't know much about French fairies but I'm told Irish ones are best.

I picture walking through an old growth forest, no not walking...more meandering. Holding a wild flower and just reflecting on life...Nicely done.

Time's suspended here, Vivian,
or transmuted and the world of self-perception
and poetic imagining comes to the fore;
i love where this goes and where it takes me

The turtle's pace is a wise pace indeed. There is much also to be said about the fast-paced French fairy, but it is understood that to be effective even the fast pace must be measured and gait(ed) with the wise turtle's know how.
