'Beauty is Truth, Truth Beauty'

The poet’s lyre afire responds to braid
heart’s comfort to art’s artistry at play
Truth Beauty, Beauty Truth John Keats would say -
Endymion - reflection which won't fade.
Beauty through the eye's beholder made
an echo of eternity which may
shine well beyond the veil where night and day
frame shadow-shapes that slip away, afraid.
Beyond time's rhyme shines Beauty as obeyed
are pattern codes diverse as snowflakes fey,
each unique however short their stay,
yet each to each conjoined as love, light weighed
  Between life's lines as silk skein all adore -
Beauty's theme whose waves wash timeless shore...




Modest maiden bashful blinks -
blushing beauty cream the rose
regrets for envy's icy snows
cannot compete with light that links
across time lines as life-force flows
to ransom Time while Brahma winks...



Beauty spans life's cycle spinning through
word, deed, and act, both outer, inner, form,
can drawn though space enchant, and thus inform
the common mortal magic must ring true.
Beauty spirals through straight lines to cue
into life's circus circle, shine and storm,
night and day, rest play, codes cuniform,
all may show glow's flow, flow's glow, renew
kaleidscope eternal which we knew
we knew before, will after know, as norm
is superceded by sensations warm
which swarm within and know nor sin, nor coup
de grâce as grace folds mantle over all
reflection, echoes soul perfection's call ...

  • Superb plus

    A most excellent write, as usual. All standard compliments apply. However, I loved the imagery in this one.
  • Come come you take a poet to ride....

    ...Into the bulls eye.
    Red herring a poor poet in delight
    Beast as beauty you call to fight
    That poet is my love not at all right.
    So beware in future i shall burn you alright.
  • Hmm... If I am not wrong the subject matter is strongly revealing the truths of which are intriguing while depicting the scenario of the poet's vision..a great write indeed...
