no rhyme no reason

no rhyme

no reason

long raindrops see-saw on the window

palm fronds breathe a sigh of relief

released from the sauna of the day

stars smile on night owls

and i watch

remembering the poetry of your face

like a window into a world of art

a world bursting in brilliant hues

a world waiting to paint my colorless rooms

and so it did

and really still does

with no rhyme

                                no reason

You can turn any moment, into a moment of gracefulness and gratitude, the mystical feelings of love, those feelings that raise our senses, burst our hesrts, flowing our ink... how gorgeously You've painted one of these moments, how sensitively and yearningly You've said it all, how Your feelings come into free words with no rules, just written, as Your heart whispers them to You. another splendid piece of beauty, Thank You*

[Lydia Shutter]

Thank you so much, Light. Your review made my morning brighter. Lydi**

i've heard, to tell if an artist that paints is really good is to look at the hands if so then an artist that writes look at the description of a face beautifully done

[Lydia Shutter]

Thanks so much, Kent. Lydi*

"and i watch remembering the poetry of your face"
I cannot think of a more beautiful, endearing way to describe a love one. Your poems have a way of touching the senses, creating images with just the right words. Reading this put a much needed smile on my face this morning. Thank you for sharing your love and your light through your poetry, Lydi.

I like the use of your title like book ends of this poem, kind of brings it full circle. No rhyme or reason implies the almost random manner of life, nature, and in the case of this poem, love as well it seems.

[Lydia Shutter]

Love has no set rules....no pre-determined path to follow. Thanks for the review, Ewan. Lydi**

[‘Thoughts In Time..]

Just because- it is..wonderful when there’s no reason needed it just is deep inside and everywhere- lovely words🌹

[Lydia Shutter]

I appreciate your review. Thanks so much. Lydi**

My pleasure🌹

[barleygirl]

This is so beautiful & graceful, the actual words themselves, the way you arrange them to look & sound, it's all so artfully done! I'm in continual awe as your words caress my eyeballs & my synapses, clear to my feeble brain, waking up something simple & primal there! *smile* Fondly, Margie

[Lydia Shutter]

Hey, that's me...simple and primal! LOL I truly appreciate your reviews, Margie. Thanks so much. Lydi**
