Afflatus
The cryptic mind
In the maze
In the labyrinth
Of lavender scented pines.
A kaleidoscope of colours
But in shades of grey.
The blind man sees
What the deaf man hears.
By the rounded square
In a hexagon shaped pear
Under the winter trees
Filled with blooming life.
The passion fruit
With a hint of lime
Dangled on cherry lips.
I eyed the skies above.
This complex but
Simple place a canvas
Of my creative mind
Guided by the fires
Submerged in waters deep.
