Elliott Rosenberg Poems

A spiritual entrainment levees,
spawning entropic cascades in its wake,
a logarithmic landscape ossifies,
effulgent among its tutelary scarps.
...

Song of Silence

Today I felt alone,
With so many friends to sing along.
...

The Mirror
- - - - - -
I smiled in the mirror this morning,
She gestured back with grace,
...

I just drank some amber spirits,
that burn with fossil nostalgia,
encumber with humdrum to long a child,
purged from a fertile womb.
...

A steadfast smile courts incoming waves,
raucously lapping in song.
Undulant dominion yields prayers,
of sailors yearning to come home.
...

Ohmmmmmmmmmmm
Ohmmmmmmmmmmm
Ohmmmmmmmmmmm
...

What started with a smile ended with a shovel,
so I thought.
Fifty years later behind the church,
Where the hurly-burly began.
...

Open the window and listen to the nightingale of King David,
His ecclesial song baptizes those who long for his presence,
A bristle harmony that greets the vagabond,
A celestial Melody that awakens the homeless beggar.
...

American Woman

Standing before your deliberating presence,
...

Rose of incessant color,
Where have your petals gone?
Withered with floral acumen,
doused in florid wine.
