Traipsing through life’s hidden seams,
cerebrally sporadic
yet, quill flows steady.
Stimulated within folds,
seducing
the breathing rhythm
pulsing endlessly.
A story
sleeps within everything.
Visage bathed
in sunbeams
Motion pauses for memories,
influencing my sway…
Gathering wisdom
in the overlooked,
misunderstood whispers
caressing silently
from streams of shade.
Gifting me humble balance.
Sensations piqued,
foraging the unspoken.
Admiring…
windy pirouettes
prancing upon the scenery,
gifting all who are listening.
Author notes
Prompt:
"The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling,
Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven;
And, as imagination bodies forth
The forms of things unknown, the poet's pen
Turns them to shapes, and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name."
"A Midsummer Night's Dream" (5.1.7-12), Theseus to his companions ....

sentiment sometimes overwhelms even our strongest impulse,to fall in between the memories like puzzle,of days and nights traping us in each piece,declaring itself dominant in spite of moment ,in which we let it all go...good job,lol,
