On Beholding Beauty in the Midst of Debussy
Wine dark Aegean tresses Splash in downy waves In frequencies only seen By her eyes of soft blue fire Reflected in the silver mirrors of time Where sutras blossom on shores of nirvana In azure pebbles of Mediterranean glass That shine on the beaches of dreams To gather in pools on hourglass sands And fall like stardust into fathomless gaze That touches Pegasus’s wing With the hem of skirts unfurled Into the Pi of a zodiac spiral

Love your impression of my poem Sugarmuser. Your comment is poetry itself.

Thanks so much, Michael. This was inspired by the combination of viewing an image of a woman friend and listening to Debussy at the same time. So very glad you enjoyed it and especially that this felt epic to you. Her beauty is an ongoing epic that is ageless and timeless.
