Repetition with variances is fetching.
Sometimes it is the simple, repeated. Enlarged. Rotated. Time rotates light. I've heard it said, verbs rotate meaning and in the extreme can cause a metaphorical vortex.
P.S. Tonight's stirfry was a fetching confluence of taste & texture. Color, too.

On such a morning
the things that time & light pick fall in such fetching pattern. Or did she mean metaphor?
Speaking of breaking, this morning's breakfast was a beguiling green. Avocado on toast, of course. Have you noticed how an avocado splits into wonder. Much like a poem. Like friendship.

Nothing like a cloud to make the center palpable
On such a night, looking down in the cracks, verbs lurk.
Is it any surprise your grandmother said, "The moon is night's center. Beware, she shape-shifts."

Since you asked
the physics of landscape hinge on the absorption of light. Her proof? The seamlessness of object & metaphor. A daffodil. A favorite lidded, fruit-motif sugar dish. A mirror. The sea. A breeze. The simplest recipe of noun and verb. Stir. Put out in the sun for breeze to make the center palpable.
Although you didn't ask, consider the similarities of petal & paper. Paper, as metaphor for poem.

Light is the flesh landscape calls home
What does a poem call home? Paper, of course, which is another landscape. The voice, too, is landscape and home to a poem. How do landscape and vista differ? Is her voice a different timbre at daybreak? Is breakfast inherently different than supper?

Beyond compare
Exactly what is the comparison in "beyond the beyond". For instance, what is riper than ripe? Take in these ceramic tomatoes from Yountville. Huge, more colorful than their namesakes. As they say in that small state with sexy curves (NJ, of course), never, never slight the tomato. And who would you believe: the one who says the poem is in the stem or she who says the poem is all flesh?
