The pictures...

The pictures
The one I went to sleep while writing and woke up thinking of!

Started dec 24 12:05 am
Completed dec 24 12:26 pm

Youth came first with sunlit trees
And sun flowers all afield 
Blue dungarees rolled, slight askew 
With a blue, blue cap as shield...
A blue, blue cap the only shield...
From the cotton candied sky,
Ruminating on a blade of grass
With neither a care, not sigh!

Love came next in a marbled hall
Arched with a white, white arch
White curtains filtering light so light
Verily, a wedding march!
And there on a table all pristine white... 
Upon the china lay,
Seeds of the pomegranate scattered 
A red, red rosé, no spray!

Hunger  followed adamant,
To vanquish, conquer, and own...
Blazing, burning, yearning...
Reaping, what it had not sown!
Scarring deeply, deeply scarred...
No falter in its gaze,
Stoked by the winds of craving,
A fireplace ablaze!

And sheltered in their falling shadows
Wisdom stirred, to blossom slow
Shadowed by the holy basil
In the dusk of life, the lamp did glow
Dim stars lit the evening sky 
A conch shell sound, last prayer's incense 
Wood fires light, life starts anew
With pain acute and joy intense!
