Summer's Revelations: (2021) Poem by DM W

Keep your gaze earthbound;
Flowers are now exploding!
Turn your gaze skyward,
In streaming summer madness:
Where birds soar so high
Like blazing symbols of fire.
Turn your gaze starward
And let the night's vivid dreams
Bathe you in moonlight,
And drown you in sweet delight.
Be awestruck, not by
Crude, arbitrary orders,
But by rich Nature's
Verdant ways that cost nothing.
Paint endless poems
Perceive with a million eyes.
Let true genius
Break through prisons of selfhood!
