Poem Title:
Poem
All I remember is rampant rain and a loud bang. As dawn distilled through a canopy of palm trees, glimpses of light reflected like emeralds on leaves. I felt blessed in its warm golden glow, as I awoke under clear sapphire skies. Radiant sun blazed brightly, reflecting like a fluorescent mosaic upon turquoise waves kissing my bare feet. I could hear cobalt macaws squawking and soaring from cliffs to branches, as the ocean lulled with a soft lullaby. The air was so pure, but muggy, as curious creatures, I had not seen before, creeped and crawled around me. As I wandered along a champagne shoreline, I could hear an orchestra of morning birds, composing their exotic melodies, which added to the tranquillity of calmness. Footsteps of fate led to a verdant forest with an abundance of mahogany and rosewood trees. A fluctuation of kaleidoscopic butterflies floated among a plethora of petals in lush layers of amber allamandas, maroon mandevillas, orange orchids and purple passionflowers - their sweet scents blending with saltiness of the sea breeze. As my soul connected deeply with my surroundings, a leafy path of twigs led to a myriad of mangroves, their roots resting in an aquamarine toned lagoon. I could see fancy fish in vibrant red, yellow and silver, swimming in trails of troops around water lilies. As my enchanted eyes gazed beyond a flock of fuchsia feathered flamingos, towards a gentle waterfall cascading, serenely over steps of rock - I caught a glimpse of a figure in divine light. Dressed in ivory and gold, reflecting in the image of Aphrodite. Her bronze skin shimmered in the sunlight, as her flaxen fair hair flickered in a gentle zephyr. Such was the epitome of her grace, I was mesmerised. I could have admired her brown pearl eyes, forever. Unaware the endless blue horizons were now dipped in velvet and honey hues, I forgot about the diamonds in the sky. The moon glowed like a ruby at midnight, shining scarlet moonlight upon her lips - my whole being craved for just one kiss. Before I could approach her, I opened my eyes in an unfamiliar room, as a nurse in a white uniform asked me; "welcome back, are you all right?"
