Poem
COLOURFUL LAMENT I combed cool waters of your baby blue crystalline Jewel as you waded waterfall waves washing my stellar rainbow rays Arching it melted into the warm womb of transducing tangoing Earth Her Violet Flame devoured us both as nectared dewdrops to fuel the fire our soma swirling into ecstatic orange oxytocined crane flowers whispering wisdoms to a hundred yellow butterflies fluttering and flirting They circled a sunken Atlantean apex atop where you ruled anew with Baconian brown locks surrounded by sirens serving savoury silver sardines oolite oyster shells sang solos as dolphins dived into divas oceanic mouthed In Ancient Egypt you followed my runcinate rulings or indigo sorrow siglums, sighing becoming slimmed seeker who served Thoth well whilst wreathing my wounded worthiness and fallow fallopian tubes at pyramidal plumed midnight hour In our graped Grecian lifetime you draped alabaster urns lighting my marble mantelpiece I watched breath enter your nebulae nostrils as you crafted provincial proverbs then instructed slaves to whiten your garb with lemons from our sculpted garden On lavender Celtic hills we exchanged kilts not knowing whose waist was whose barefoot our figs and flutes flaunted sleek sharp sapphire studded swords dancing the necessary wild wars rune stones becoming menhir mosaics Who remembered and who forgot where in ether our nestling niche napped as games of betrayal, fear or doubt doubled into involuting circles and spirals each tried to neck THE VOID as naked excuse for not excavating heaving Heart How much escaping, escapades, evolutionary clocks cloak our cusps or cues or custard synchronicities how many summer summit starlings must seek to sing of sorrow or of wolves, withering willows, watermelons on this Planet of coloured curriculums holding dear our distinctive designs where lacy lament is but another artful aperture into Space I seek not to know ! ©GhairoDanielsPoetry& Song2023
