Tumbler or Chalice

Tumbler or Chalice,
bursting and crammed, stuffed and jammed,
contents and, the cores and insides,
could they be replaced, surging surfs and waves.
Rushes and trends, resonate and ascend,
waving the surface, ringing the likeness,
even to stir, swirl, budge and nudge,
still the notions, judgements, commotions.
surpass the surface, induce emotions.
Skies to steer, patterns to pertain,
stormy and blustery, passages and channels,
the waves and ripples, trends and gushes,
urging the tumbler, pleading the chalice,
to stop the envy, to pertain the kinship.
Within the goblet, entrapped by chalice,
constantly form and shape,
insert the context, fervor and ardor,
ardently contest and orderly race.
The spillovers, drips, and drops,
and the flanges and falls, exacerbate,
the contents, gist, and kernels, sustain or stumble,
landscapes spread, sceneries outstrip.
Withal, the orchard trees, saturate the aura,
with their buds dashing to blossoms,
amidst, the gallant and daring sun,
surmises the next move of the waving flowers,
While, the kismets and fates. defy and furnish.
