Sunlit

I’m an orchestra, ever alone, to crochet a thought—
asearch a utopia.

It’s a masquerade, even a seaquake, this life; but more
for grace, to feel a wind, and stumble thoughts.

I’m a lamp, even a sunray, fraught with gloom; but art
for rain, a candid canvas, colored perfectly.

There’s a girl, a fluid stone, to live a paradox. I sit for
blank, to sift a soul, slightly altered. I feel a name, a
subtle kiss, to release rain. I wander there, a vapid
space, playing hopscotch. She sits a swing, to nurture
soul, as sublime as hello. I feel her in a portrait, for
heart to scream, jotting notes. I see her more,
scraping thoughts, deep in meditation. Its paradise, to
come with rain, musing childhood.

I drift for scar, to rapture myth, singing  twilights; and
here we are, a sanded table, plucking stems.

Years morph, to live discreetly, a honeysweet pain. She
rants and raves, to settle peace, bound to perception. I
invite a stranger, to pail for reason, holding an amulet.
It’s gripped, to mold sanity, trickling a big picture.

So many eyes, to sculpt rain, pleading cases. We’re at a
rally, wailing words, lost for a paragraph. I slow for
down, to grip a pen, a face of flight. It’s more a flame,
to storm a soul, captured at an orange light.

I pause a nightmare, tapping kismet, even a violin. She
moves a pit, to strike a fire, a choir of souls. It’s a
sullen joy, palm to palm, singing for grace.
