Through the Kaleidoscope

Bedazzlement of shifting shapes

Sparkling against the light

A shiny gem, a blinding drape

That meets the eye's delight

So vivid, like That 70's show

Spinning, with groovy wry

Sunshine behind the ambit shows

Pink diamonds in the sky

The cluster of Orion's belt

A winding maze of stars

Falling ash and Jupiter pelts

Tumbling like streams afar

From off the wheel of zodiac

The symbols come alive

Watching them clash and counteract

Crazed, like a riled bee hive

Aries headbuts Gemini

And Taurus humps Virgo

The raging Leo snags the goat

A frenzied vertigo

Cancer locks with Scorpio

Grappling with their pincers

Libra scales that little fish

The chaos has no censors

And then I see an orange cow

Jump tenfold, over moon

With Sagittarius chasing it

With arrows and harpoon

Aquarius stands and limbers back

Then hurls a vase of water

But, never does this slosh delay

No never, does it bother

It's funny, to the naked eye

I can't see diddley squat

But, once I scope this funnel nigh

I see a clustered clot

Peering out from my back window

Through the Kaleidoscope

Seeing swells of innuendo

Things that I can not cope

great poem Bryce
