Violets of stolen moments

Violets of stolen moments

A Poem by Patricia Wedel

The sun rises and smiles on the 
bosoms of mountains... 
as the rivers flow with currents of 
natures provocative libations... 

Breezes sway with lullabies and 
memories of lovers breath in 
soft sounds of merriment... 
Sweet violets of stolen secrets and 
flights of butterfly dreams... 

Many days of rain have brought 
a sense of movement in sleeping 
buds of possibility... 
Birds in painted vanity appear 
as though the opera of a lost paradise has 
suddenly discovered sunshine and laughter...

This makes me think of those violet fields of Provence that served as the backdrop for some of Van Gogh's latter years.

"Bosoms of mountains".....such an alluring description. As always, your description of the senescent scene is lush and visual. Surely someday the floral world will bow at your feet for all these dedications to their beauty.

Another beautiful write, Pat.

I shall never look at another mountain again and not see the articulation of "bosoms". Beautiful lines throughout this one, Pat. I adore the "buds of possibility", and the ethereal feeling reading this gave me. Lovely work my friend!

I love this: "bosoms of mountains" becuz around here, mountains do resemble softly-rounded breasts! I also love this: "nature's provocative libations" becuz you compare natural phenomena to various human desires that we crave to party and/or escape (bosoms & libations - such an uncommon comparison!) Good use of graceful phrasing that paints pictures & conjures feelings in the reader's mind (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
