To Frolic In Life

 To bathe in a moisture
of natures pure streams
brings feelings of freshness
as a mornings sweet cream

to nascent into beauty
of creations own
to reaches of awe
we loiter as drones

in essence of sounds
that dulcimer ring
to ears, our wanting
these joyous hearts sing

in a wonderment so toxic
we frolic in the waves
in life what it gives us
so neath this silence paved

so with moats that ebb
from castle gates
elapsing moments
are forever as fate

this time in life 
we've shared its bond
with a grandeur so silent
as flocking myrmidons

A very interesting poem which had me reaching for my thesaurus. A good use of language.
