Whimsical

ByRick Ellsmore

Whimsy

Thrives and jives

Alive on

Softened skin

Breathing smoothly

Out of her

Overtaking the air

Surrounding her aura

Luxurious beauty

Magnified

Electrifying my brain

Sizzling from

Deep within

Stirring an

Ancient drum beat

Beating to

A new rhythm

Smooth and wild

Her whimsy

Nature’s whimsical-ness

Can’t be helped

Bunny trails

A must

Delightfully following

A bouncing tail

Through the trees

Mother’s voice

Aspen’s grace

Guiding

Bewitched

Communing in

The presence

Of one

So lovely

    Long Haul Words popping Into my liquid mind The recent hike With a young man Ever present I’m not about going faster I’m about going longer Sharing the turtle analogy Over-enthusiasm and bullheadedness of no use Pushing through everything No longer desiring The pain and loneliness Coming with This choice in life Ahh, the wisdom…
