The Rims and Brims

The rims and brims,
base and bottom, and the size and shape,
expand or shrink, span or squeeze,
or bridge and traverse.

The sunshine and shade,
the breeze and whirl, or, the choppy shells,
the façade and face,
to rise and ascend, or, demise and escape.

Goblet and chalice, horizons, or snares,
the scenes and settings, boomerang, rebound,
and scale,
or, entice and induce, allure and invite.

Snarls and muddles, the choices and picks,
the sinks and holes, just do hide and seek,
the mills and water, mortar and pounder,
grain, kernel sacks,
all, sealed, tied, and knotted.

the man refuses to, toss and fling,
the grain and texture,
or, let the husk swathe, swaddle the unseen.

Foresee and ponder, foretell and wonder,
the streams, becks and torrents,
to murmur, whisper, praising the riddles.

The waves, curls, upsurges, quivers and shivers,
not meant to settle, rivulets to wobble,
esteems to reflect; exuberance to render.
