The Meaning Of Tyme


Sparked by a chance sighting of a mistyped word and Muse giggled as she suggested the way this poem should flow.





The Meaning Of Tyme  -  01 Jun 13

In a bottle
Tyme has no meaning
Drifting through the afternoon
Of an iridescent day
Painted images
Wrapped in light

Wandering digits
Caress the keys
Unlock new words
From the lexicon of thought
To build a whole new way
Of saying

Tyme seasons
Throughout the year
Flavours the months
And our thoughts
With fire and wine
To spark and sweeten

Meaning of tyme
Eternal variations
Enigma and the chorale
Sing together
The score is open
Breathe






I wonder if more of these strange, almost surreal, poems will show themselves.

    1. I'm wondering if I should create / invent / develop / whatever some term in the way Dali did with his "Paranoiac critical" to indicate which way his work was progressing.
      Would that be too pretentious of me?

      Whatever ...

      Thank you for your Lovely comments dani ♥

    2. i don't think it would be pretentious ~ there SHOULD be a name for something that only borders on surreal. {smile}

    3. How about ~

      limite surréaliste

      ~ as a phrase to describe the idea of "borderline surreal"
      ?
