Analysis of Time's Forgiving Sibling



Poignant bliss leer at forest opening
Flowers frown as trees capture wind’s first dance
The enigma of sight cracks its knuckles
Look in the eyes of the riverside kiss

I stand with orioles as guests when
whirlwinds marry tendrils’ secludedness
Cease this moment let earth run away taste
musical notes of everything's everything

This diamond mine at last wild in the grass
Let’s dance my fair sun while feet are still young
Bubbles glare by a tender wisp of air
This is love’s triangle with soft corners

The sky in rapture smooth dumb clouds abide
with humanity’s arduous hasty steps
Another dawn yawns brilliance in to life
Before ruffled by time kiss the riverside.
