Rejuvenation

Rejuvenation

I fell off the Earth again

Was suspended from a thread

Dangled like some lonely spider

Hanging from its web

 

While out there freely spinning;

Ingested what the universe was fed,

Took in the solar winds and

Felt their comfort as they spread

 

I was immersed in pleasant sough,

A soft and lonely sound

Not unlike the hum of angles

Singing sunshine in the round

 

I was cocooned in cosmic light;

Swirling rainbow drips

Painted with arrays of color

From toes to finger tips

 

As I regained my mortal fiber

From the mystic cosmic sway

I climbed my string to Earth

Feeling all my burdens slip away

Tonya,

this is a really beautiful piece. Being fond of spiders, I loved the first stanza the most. But all of this poem is just humming with imagination. Yours, ~Nina “Like plumbers and dentists, poets are fallible, and the possibility of genuine nonsense cannot be ruled out.” (Mark Haddon)

Thank you for your lovely comment! I am glad you liked the write. The day before yesterday was bad, yesterday was good! :)) since you like spiders...your comment brought some lines to mind. I shall post it for you in the forum. (I like them as long as they are 10 or so feet away, at least!) Always Sincere, Tonya
