dVerse — Q201 — Noneday

resized-wisteria-canopy-20231024_174734

Noneday

Do you know sacred
place in sevensie’s space?
A time of no-time?

When calendars flee?

Breath, unfettered,
appreciates all,
exists between,

within

Noneday, all dwells
without names,
only senses
attuned, communed.

In wordless apprehension,

music of wind
travels skin
sings stories
scent of cinnamon.

Note:  The word Noneday came to me today when I was watching an episode of Tokyo Lens Explore.

De Jackson (aka whimsygizmo) is today’s host of dVerse’ Quadrille Monday. De says:
if you’re in the mood to write a poem of exactly 44 words today, this must be the place. It’s Quadrille Monday here at the pub, that magical twice-monthly time when we pen pieces of precisely 44 words, using one word we here at dVerse provide to you.

    Oh, how I long to be in this “Noneday” place, instead of this Monday place. ;) Wonderful, Lisa!

    I could smell the cinnamon in these lines, Lisa:

    ‘music of wind

      Thanks, Laurie! Sorry I used the same photo as was used in FF this week, but I had to redeem myself from the dystopia I wrote about in this week’s FF prompt.
