Missing
Summarily Missing …
(This is quite long. For those who tire easily, I apologize. For those who enjoy long pieces, enjoy!)
As we pursue our wayward lives
in rain and sun’s suspended reigns
what we do and where we go
is summarily missing
Stranded on beaches of never there
where swimming hard in ocean waves
caress of warmth and cold enhanced
births absent minded thinking
Flowing strongly through battling breezes bottled to explode
beyond mountain’s cresting and hollow field
traversing passageways unpaved paths
leading to and from expected gold
Missing empty air as empty air is filled
head and body sectioned as different beings
in errors time when clocks are struck
reaching incredible height on nature’s way
From one burgeoning spot through splitting winds
upon one hesitating step after another
eyesight sees what is seen at first
extracting that which delights the senses
Missing from one golden sense in graying garden
entwining forms come together in anarchy
where seedlings of furious favor begin
in legion ever searching for strengthening hands
As screaming trains collide from urgency often felt
tracks intersection gets overly remote
erasure combines with replanting vigor
where collision and coercion are minuscule
Auto play rewinds as patterns coexist
paying tolls to former raging thought
passions come to ride the inside
where celibate remuneration is missing
Seasoned and re seasoned with actively brought spices
as they of their own accord entwine
be-knight of Kings and Queens giving guard
as rallying in staying dance they play
Celibate skies range over canyon minds
where mind and brain and eyes enjoin
coercing that which was never thought
to be born among skeletal misty images
Reigning resistance becomes of and with itself
missing those flagrant inconsistencies
before as well as after noted scenes
pulverize pacification in darting darkest eyes
Behoove that which visits come
throughout misty paths occurring
birthing passive partiality run
beyond words so vain so slurring
Outside where fancy revalues itself
creaking craving willing well
solving interruption in all dissolves
its passions interpret some sweeping quell

Nicely penned work Donald. It is not too long, in fact it is the normal length for posts here. A minimum of 300 words is strongly suggested for a good SEO score, so you did well since you are just a little over 300 words. Well done.
PS: I changed the category to Poetry with the sub-category Free Verse. You had Creative Writing, which does not include poetry, and Contemporary/Alternative Poetry, which is the wrong sub-category for this post.
Thank you, Phyllis. And for your help, also. Categories I don’t know from categories, so the help is appreciated.
