        Perception's Experience ...

Poems like paintings most often are gauged
By ghost light or depth of imagery's air;
Teasingly taunting with mystical flair
Ardor arousing, when artfully staged.
An abstract message leaps out from the page
Revealing to wonder, thoughts hidden there;
As marvels expose the concepts they bare -
Their pose alerts senses ~ your soul's assuaged!

Essence  for pleasure may reach a quick end,
When often with haste, there's so much we miss;
Grasping the bare facts, yet passing the pith.
Perception's point ~ must awaken again
Retracing our steps through wisdom's abyss.
Magic's revived when experience steps in.
