Theresa Ann Moore Poems

The night fills with dimmed hues and unforeseen surprises
Opalescent moonbeams dance lightly on rippling streams
Opaque curtains of solitude surround before sight realizes
Transforming summer splendor into a muted rush of dreams
...

Songs of love surpass words and musical rhythm
Sung with an array of emotions in arranged verse
Accompanied by flutes or drums…horns or strings
Heart felt feelings unify receptive ears of the diverse
...

Under the varying layers of applied paint
Many tubes of hue must be acknowledged
The canvas of innocence and naïve purity
Has absorbed the brush strokes of knowledge
...

He is a purring fluff of soft fur
Contently taking events in stride
As they lackadaisically occur…
Preferring to sun bathe outside
...

With a calcium coiled dome of shelter carried
Upon his back…he leisurely travels along
Merging forward…as though being ferried
Never pausing to look back all his life long
...

It is difficult to find words to define
The qualities of virtue that describe
Sensitive eyes of the rainbow mind
Poetry that approaches the sublime
...

The love of birds has prompted my neighbor to indulge
In the feeding of feathered friends who come to feast
Pecking and consuming... expanding with a bulge
Sufficiently satisfied…. Seeking a place to release
...

Pleasure is derived from watching…
Mesmerized by life forces while maturing
Marvelous treasures of delight are expanding
The wonders of growth are reassuring
...

Everywhere there is an aura of splendor to be perceived
In the vastness of nothingness are gifts to be received
Consciousness gives the opportunity to see the totality
Take in the beauty and the glory created by the majesty
...

A lamp without a shade is glaring
So intense
It is blinding and offers offense.
