If gods of darkness devour the brilliance of the sun,
and secret sadness lingers long into always—
recall the blush-dance of the vast world waking
to the healing laughter of birdsong
carried on a kiss of blue-sky breath,
and watch the flower-fire dazzle red and pink—
a thousand dreams dreamt, a thousand dreams waiting
for you.
My poem from the Magnetic Poetry Oracle. She knows that my spirits were lifted by seeing signs of spring this week.
Yesterday and today: Merril's historical musings 
Such a bright and hopeful message!
Thank you! 🌞
Sam words, same artist, same colours, same poem. The oracle did it again 🙂
She did. I’m not sure how it happens. 😀
I imagine the Oracle sitting in her shrine rolling her eyes and yelling, ‘It’s obvious!’
I’m glad I wasn’t chewing as I read that! 🤣🤣
I wonder how may others are tuned into her wavelength? Given the number of people who have asked about the Oracle, you’d think there’d be a few at least. Haven’t heard from any though.
I guess we’re special. 😀
I reckon.
‘Same’ words. Who’s Sam?
I accept the Oracle’s gift of poem gladly and with an open heart.
That’s a wise decision. You wouldn’t want to oppose her. 😀
Heaven forbid! 😀
😀
… and the dreams of spring are happening. Good timing!
Thank you, Frank. The Oracle knows!
My spirits have been lifted as well with warmer temperatures this past week. The birds are everywhere! Lovely poem today, Merril. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much, Jill!
The oracle is oracling through you. The piece goes beautifully with that painting.
There are so many styles of art. I want to get into some canvas painting. I find the freedom of the painting you posted to be very inspiring.
Thank you, Resa!
The Oracle seems to like Redon. 😀. I think you admired another Odilon Redon painting I posted.
It inspired me when I was drawing last night. I felt that I can do anything I want. The arts can be very freeing!
I’m so pleased you felt that way!
Another beautiful Redon. She knows we need this spring more than ever. (just breathe…) (K)
Gorgeous poem. It glows! Thank you for the offering. 🙏
Thank you so much. That’s a lovely comment!
What a beautiful pairing. Dream it into reality!
Thank you very much!

Crucially placed if. Lovely poem
Thank you very much, Derrick!
