Time leaves space*

Time leaves space*

Sun to settle in the west

A day goes by, blanketing light to rest

Distance away clouds begin to wisp

Ahhhh such a moment, more to ask of this

The sounds of fountains taking rhyme

An essence to be soothe with, present losing time

Depths and shallows both converge

Duality becoming oneness in this merge

The over all feeling of this empty but fulfilled

It is all of balance and perfectly still

Tho nothing has been grasped in this place

All that has happen came and left at its own time and space

When it is done, you will see the sun*

When it is done, you will see the sun*

Arisen in the east, the daylight begins

Another time opens up to do it once again

A walk across the heavens with clouds and blue sky

It is a bright whirling ball of energy, as this flies by

Finally after it shown itself in the surround

Seems like the day was done now for the sun to go down

But if you wish to see this once again when the day is done

You have to go on the other side of the moon to find the sun

Write above me*

Write above me*

Gaze above, I look upon a vast sky

Heaven that is seen, reflected in my eyes

Background stays still a vibrant blue

Focus my attention in what is in view

I see a rhythm moving in its fluidity

Paper is that background and the clouds, words in poetry

The rain shall make me walk once again*

The rain shall make me walk once again*

It is one more day that has come by

I search for a cloud in the sky

But today is parched and now not a drink

I feel that now my roots cannot sink

But if to get just a taste from a cloud that goes by

Just one little sip, a tear so moist not dry

I know that I can move on from here without despair

To tend to my Soul* with loving care

As I make from a prayer a desperate plea

To know that something is watching over me

And it does come upon me in a deluge of a soak

My roots will no longer be still to die

But now I shall be able to move on with them and walk

Dom*Colucci 2015

Let it rain*

Let it rain*

How does a cloud hold up in what is within?

To move onward and disappear once again

Then it comes back and shows its poetry in motion

Like how waves hit the shoreline on any ocean

There are white puffy ones, darker ones too

Aimlessly moving always in what they go through

But the ones that get darker seem to have much strain

That is when they release what is within and let it rain

The w"hole" feeling*

The w"hole" feeling*

The field is so barren, so desolate and free

Only tall grasses are here not even a tree

Flat seems forever this is all in the surround

The only thing that can be seen is a few clouds I have found

Drifting closer I note something is about to begin

Yes it comes and touches me, the hole in the wind

It is not angry when it cries*

It is not angry when it cries*

In a distance the old man grumbles

Something has upset him as he rumbles

Darkness ensues as it is on its way

Obscurity of brilliance now to be gray

Emotional this becomes, it feels its pain

A tear to be shed and now it rains

Drenching all below, it begins to release

Finally with such sorrow, it knows of its peace

But from these drops of crystal tears

It knew of despair that sat right here

It was not for the sake of only one

It was bring back life as it hid the sun

Now all things can be once again of a flow

To make rivers push on and allow nature to grow

For there may be anger with a temporary bind

But once it is out there, one can find

To hold it all in, this burdens more and more

It is not good to be the wall, for there is an open door

So in a sense all benefits from this storm

At least it gave notice as it was forewarned

Moving forward it does and it did not last

All things that move into the present, are now the past

So life has its cycles with joy and pain

But sunny days do not last long, it must at times rain

See clearly when calm*

See clearly when calm*

Clouds do not exist below a pond

They might reflect on the surface when it is calm

But a depth below that it does show in view

Transparency is clear, when one is looking though

But to a fish in such pond it seems to be fine

It sees perfectly in its environment all of the time

Dom*Colucci 2014

I shall find you*

I shall find you*

Storms that I see with clouds up above

Heart deep within, doing the best to love

Seeking but never finding and holding on

Will not stop until love is definitely found

Let it rain and let this storm pass through

After all this I see a rainbow and I shall find you

"Still" there is peace*

"Still" there is peace*

The mountain awaits very patiently still

It takes in one breath and releases its fill

When a cloud comes by as it is passing through

Absorbing this freshness from out of the blue

Combing gentle winds through all of its trees

The fingers of such wind with its light breeze

Ahhhh!!!! a feeling of a soothing balm

This is how a mountain always remains in a calm

Dom*Colucci 2014

"May" I be warm?*

"May" I be warm?*

I await throughout winter as it was long

To enjoy the warmth and hear birds sing a song

But there are clouds in the sky that are dismal gray

Can anyone tell me that this is May?

The only hint I guess is pollen from the trees

What a way to enjoy spring as I sneeze

The joy of spring*

The joy of spring*

Fresh is the day, light in the sky

Clouds open up as they all pass by

The smell that wafts through the air

Breeze filters through, it is spring everywhere

Birds come and go, chirping through the trees

Sensational wonder in nature, everything so free

Buds come alive, the blossoms of rose

An artful delight is seen, a masterpiece that grows

All is now awakened after a long winter nap

The sun gets closer to home, the winter has snapped

To be in this beauty that this season does bring

Yes it finally arrived and it is now the joy of spring

Dom*Colucci 2014

Still it speaks*

Still it speaks*

Clouds float on by as they go away

Emptiness with fluidity, time goes through the day

Steps that were here previously from before

No wall is the obstacle, gateless gate is the door

Further on in silence, direction it is not

What just came into view, I left alone and forgot

Every part of this that leads me to something I can hear

Drawing me so close, yes so close that it is near

Seems there is no objective in this as this has been seen

To know of not knowing, this is what it means

So I come across what has called and now in view

A little bit more and I am here, so now I go through

Stop for the moment to absorb why I came

Vision that I seen, ironically it is the same

Moving gently like a slow moving creek

I am listening real closely to a still pond that speaks

Snow has fallen

Nature now rests

Path to the clouds*

All around freedom*

All around freedom*

Bright is the day this morning in spring

Love in my heart with joy this does bring

Fresh in the meadow of daisies and flowers

Who could ever leave this, I stay for many hours

But one must move on and let the moments go by

And follow the clouds moving freely in the sky

Dom*Colucci © 2014

Heavenly white rose*

Heavenly white rose*

Divine is the love in nature it knows

Such is the beauty in all that grows

Openness of the sky, the clouds may roam

Appearing to be nomads but right at home

In what I see of this is what I suppose

Look, puffy clouds for they are a white rose

Wafting its fragrance, going from here to there

Ahhhh!!!!garden fresh heaven in the air

Dom*Colucci 2014

The flame grows*

The flame grows*

Let the clouds sweat and cry ever so more

We are both two lovers

That our heated passion can never be quenched

Let us drown more and more

Like puddles of wax on the bottom of heated wick 

Through flame of candle

No we can never die out 

For love does make us grow in such wet garden

Dom*Colucci © 2013

Entwined with love*

Entwined with love*

Where doth a rose grow, 

When it touches the clouds for a kiss to drink from?

Such beauty in light so fragrant is its smell

So gentle to be of its touch

Entwined in universal love 

To make it grow ever so vibrant that it shall be

Dom*Colucci © 2013

A heart that tears*

A heart that tears*

Why do clouds of hurt hang over me?

Feels that the heart should be happy

What do I have to do to turn it around

And not feel depressed to be so down

Was this meant to be, to live in such pain?

To constantly feel this feeling of the cold, cold rain

Dom*Colucci 2013

The window is opened*

The window is opened*

Big blue window as far as I can see

Opened beyond the heavens so vast and so free

Clouds come in like nomads traveling one by one

Where did they ever start from, who knows how they begun

How could this turn to dark coffee and change into night

With so much blue into eternity that now shows this light
