God's Fancy

[Makai]

Creation laughing bubbles,
tickling God's fancy~
but the joke is on us.

Skin dewed by youth;
clear eyes sparkle diamonds,
ornamenting the fertile glory
of immortal thoughts.

Tears watermark clear vision...
Alluvial fans chisel vulnerable faces...
Winds spin fine grains to salt statues...

Old photographs view faded beauty~
edges timeworn scrolls.

A balance struck between youth and age.
Silver threads plait fading colors
to delicate antique lace,
and eyes grow wise.

Knotted truth unravels
we finally get the joke,
and laugh our prayers.

I especially love the last two verse. I like the cycle of life that you depicted here on a rice grain.

thanks

Thank you very much kiz_paws for your very kind comment!

Yes indeed Prince, balanced was one of those sneaky typos because the spelling was correct but the word was not. Thanks for pointing that out my friend. Love ya, V

You honor my efforts Oh Dragon, thank you so much. Dancing is a song in motion...

(ps) every time I read "Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup! " I laugh, thank you for that too!
