When can I own the spring
From which you gather colors and sing
Life’s superlatives brushing on my cheeks
Waking into a dream….
……and ripples of laughter
the world is green and frothy
pink- the color of desire the rainbow failed to own
ears listening to song from which music is stolen
and often wordless at rendition
the anklet of singing streams
squeezing a seductive smile
the world hanging upside down
the way leads on….
The darkened pond escapes to the corner
Heavy with a destitute’s biography
ME, an intruder
Inhaling wrinkled happiness
I stand here,naked
With a haunting melody inside
With envy nature did glance
When with her anklet did I dance
Nature’s melody enraptured in trance
And me and me wandering awhile
In search of my lost smile

I like this idea.
You have some nice lines here. My favorite was:
Waking into a dream….
……and ripples of laughter
the world is green and frothy
I can visualize ripples of laughter very well.

I visualize the haunting melody, it is enticing

I actually like several of them...4, 5,7,9 and also 10 would make a great
hook for a song...
And me and my wandering
we've been gone awhile
Through hill side and cities
In search of lost smile
Down back roads and alleys
Cross ocean and plains
But I'm still not a-finding
Do you think, it remains...
Have a lovely week...
Hugs...Eddy

By far my favorite line...
pink- the color of desire the rainbow failed to own
My gosh how true, how true
Warmly, chrissy

ears listening to song from which music is stolen
