Layered Veils In Swirling Infinite Time Poem by Terence George Craddock

anyone
who has spent time
peering

staring into
mellow mystery
gem harmony

vista semi precious
gemstones knows layers
lay swirling infinite

beauty which soothes eyes soul

anyone
who has spent
time

in layered veils nature

knows
landscapes
rocks

change colours
in differing light
view foothills

view Southern Alps
near my hometown
shape seen blue hills

rising like ramparts
near the sea in light
filter lens changes

so few see shift shade blue
clearly visible on clear light days
living in diminished worlds

who sees mountains ranges
like liquid waves shimmering water
shine rolling across landscapes

who can peer a mystic seer
through mystery layered veils
time layers like geologists

eyes spanning ages peering through
compositions structures layers of rock
multilayered landscapes superimposed
