Poem
Written: March 28, 2024 For Constance La France Contest Quote: (The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.) Marcel Proust __________________________________ Slumber unwinds within crinkled cellophane, Enigmatic visions come to life and sustain. Geometrical shapes skin to pyramids, expand, Cruising fairies sing through shimmering sand. Hey, Captain! Ferry sails across any hurdle, A searing streak splits the sky as a starved squirrel. A prize is won, dock shuts, and crowds cheer, At night, memories of you come back so near. Delicate spiderwebs hang as stars in the sky, Mozart hands waltz ivory piano keys sigh. Galaxy emits a lambent, milky-white light, Tapestry Highways sails by my a quilted sight. A cosmic queen embarks on a cynosure journey, Slicing over a glistening ocean during night mercy. Colorful pathways in the sky are formed by sea swirls, Mermaids glide fluffy waves of glistening pearls. Behold a sturdy sail, a tough and bold ship, oh heart! As bleak as the gnomes at dawn, it's time to depart! On deck, the skipper is fierce and red-dripping, Meanwhile, my soul lingers in frigid buds snipping. Captain! Rise and hear chimes; to you, a flag raised, You gained fights and flights, and doves amazed. The ship has sailed safely and fulfilled its voyage, He gulped distance, sea, time, and buoyage. It was a time of jubilation and feelings of love, During spell hour, they shone brightly from above. Dived in the chaotic bliss of love, this waned, In a misty past, the spirit soared and stained. Rivers rush down slopes, and peaks loom tall, Rafters ride via waterfalls as bridges never fall. Deer graze in fields, and craftsmen, work away, Sweets and meals sizzle on burner, made to stay. Chili, pasta, beans, and maize are all we need, The Alpine guy eats grits, Angus, and meat, indeed. Riders hold on tight with flying manes and fish dives, West Virginia alpine star twinkles and jives.
