A WONDERLAND WITHIN

So many perceive only surfaces

only skin…

but she is a Wonderland within.

 

Chrysalis tea with a hatter’s cup

and more…

inside her live ten thousand doors.

 

Red queen, white queen shadowed

stormy cries…

she feeds me bread and butterflies.

 

A vast expanse of tranquil space

this etched ink…

dancing now through her folds of pink.       

 

We play in her gardens of delight

by roses red…

wildflowers make our untamed bed.

 

Drink me now and inhale us in

this frabjous day…

Sweet hookah in our minds will play.

[John the Baptist]

Perhaps I am only perceiving the surface of this one. I have a feeling the multiple images have deeper meanings, but I can't fathom them now. The rhyming is excellent. Well done.

[An owl on the moon]

Thank you for your kindness in coming here, dear poet. Here's to an inspired New Year for you.
