And All in the World is Well

Waves breathe whispered wonderlands

across the singing, sanded shores

their tempo rising in rhythms, in rhymes

as they stroke clouded reflections

with their riffling, rifting, waking

fingers on blue billows and breakers

ascending surfing seas dance hallows

meandering meditations in dark light

moonlit sonnets and serenades in the night

and in the starfield glimmers, shimmers

I glimpse your softing, sensing smile

and all in the world is well… for awhile.

And in the back of a dolphin she rides the mermaid of your heart....waves of love the only thing keeping you apart....🌹🌹🌹

wonderful use of adjectives in this write, it is very lovely and well written.

This is so hypnotically beautiful! I can't decide which to admire first, your word-crafting (awesome sound-weaving) or the overall imagery you word-paint into a fulsome tapestry? I really felt this one with all the senses & I love the way you play with words. You are obviously having fun & that transmits to the reader. Even as I read the title in my reading list, I clicked ahead to read this one, passing up others, becuz even the title gives me that sensation of having fun with life, with words, with imagery (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Thank you for always sharing such a kindness and light in your presence here, Margie! I have always loved Wonderland.. and the games words seemed to play there. May we always have fun with wordling wonders!

amazing imagery you "spin" for us here....again.
the alliteration makes me hear the sea and the billowing of the clouds...
they make for a dazzling display.

Ah, just visiting past places of creativity and of course had to see if my favorite spinner of golden poetry was still weaving beautiful treasures! I always find serenity and inspiration in your wonderland of words, my friend. Good to read you again!

K! It's been so long! So thankful to see you back here! Appreciate you stopping by... and hopeful you'll stay around. :)

[Ghost of Jupiter]

It has been a long time... too long I miss poetry, especially your beautiful words! We will see about staying, I see the drama still is circling so if I can stay clear of it, I just might pop on here and there. :)

[An owl on the moon]

I can understand for sure... yes... keep in your boat above the waves... don't let it ever take you down. We need your words here. Pure magic. :)

[Lilly]

So, so beautiful. I found the imagery and alliteration calming and soothing. Just what I needed - thank you for easing an anxious mind of late.

[An owl on the moon]

Oh dear poet, I am so thankful you came by... clear from the other side of the earth... May peace wash over you in your new day now, as mine comes to an end...

The sea lights up in the morning and fades to darkness at night. I think the mystery of the darkness is always captivating like "whispered wonderlands." I really enjoyed the poetic language you create. Thank you for sharing your work here.

[An owl on the moon]

Truly thankful you passed by here, Tony. May your week bring you much joy.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

I love the lilting tone of this piece and the phrases certainly dance all over the page...!
A moment of calm, knowing everything is well as long as we're with them. I was captivated especially by the last two lines. :))

[An owl on the moon]

So happy you came here, dear Yumna. Yes, there are those rare people who come in our lives who make the storms cease. May you always find one near... I know your presence is peace for others. :)

[Kelly Scheppers]

The imagery runs off the page and begs me to follow. How does one not get caught up in the ambiance that is you?

[An owl on the moon]

Dear Kelly, I am always so grateful for your visits. May your weekend be filled with an ambiance of joy. :)

' .. moonlit sonnets and serenades in the night - and in the starfield glimmers, shimmers - I glimpse .. '
A hum of words, beautifully laid.. phrases to hold and hug, and, obviously memories hugged close to a heart full of memories.

[An owl on the moon]

Thank you for your constant encouragement of my Wonderland words. One day I'll find the door. Wishing you wonders this week. :)
