A place where beauty is born and kept And where true life is seen at its fiercest. Here, the sunlight pours like honey Into the circular confines of this outdoor alcove. It drips into the crevices of the walls Pools in the corners of the floor, And saturates The graceful, Circular, Languid staircase growing within. It hits the cut crystal in a nearby shop window, And begs the scalding rainbows it creates To plaster the white walls with their utter brilliance. Here, the potted flowers yawn and stretch, Revealing an array of marvelous colors, Sacred shapes And dense texture. Their inner faces light up And they turn into canines, Shaking dew from their coats. Here, I come to sit in eager respite, To find a silent repose, And to finally know The growth of beauty That is happening within me.
