Theater of Dreams

Above these sculptured hills rise
Dazzling white clouds sail the sky
Meandering breeze strides 'cross gorges of green
With fragrant sweet spices from sources unseen

Ascending, unending: commanding our eyes
Beholding their glory raptured on high

Be there an Architect of vapors design
Who masters order,  from course to fine
Radiates refracted, Autographed Light
Guiding the billow and nimbus aright?

Achromatic, brilliant mist gleams
Clouds converging, ever emerging
Rest o’er this valley: Theater of Dreams

At face value, this piece is absolutely incredible. The rhyme, the flow and content are amazing. Metaphorically speaking, it simply opens avenues to discussions about the wonders from up above. You always seem to send your message forth with one intention and if I may, that is to reach the reader's mental state upon completion of reading it, not just to receive a comment but to really reach within. Great write.

This has been one of my favorite pices to write. If one cannot look at creation and see the signature of a loving, intelligent God, then what are we doing here? I am hopeful to impart some facet of His character in my work. I am glad of your kind words and thank you!

I liked this a lot. Concise and very thought provoking. The clouds can be God's cavass sometimes. Subtle ways he finds to communicate with us. Its only those that take the time to look and listen that really, ultimately, hear. Thanks for sharing... Kevin

I am truly conviced of that very truth, that His Creation points to His awesome power of loving and wise design. Thankyou for your support of generous compliments, Kevin!

Rhymer, you're one to write. I am very pleased to see these words of encouragement. (Now I can write another day or two, just from the fuel you've given, here) THANK YOU

thank you, A12, I do concur, that I got every ounce of meaning I could out of this in few stanzas. Very appreciative of your glowing appraisal

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
