Mystic Rose Rose Poet Free verse

A Moment In Time

Should I  search for you through lotuses of gold 
or climb pyramids of truth and go beyond the self? 

If I were Ghost of Amdapor,  
could I possibly un-clock the secret 
of a shadow bringer's touch?

If I were perception at its best  
would these emerald eyes transmute 
into the umbra of your light? 

If these wings of mine were Love  
stretching further than the ocean blue,  
could I cover you ? 

If I were mercy's Angel  
at deepest hour of need 
would you be an echo of my living past
or the song of our tomorrows child 
my love?
 
If I were yours and you were mine 
inside this peaceful lake
I call my heart,  
Would you be rock salt or would you be, 
water.

What a profound question to start your poem.. wow, you have asked so many deep and thought provoking questions that this will take time to process, think and answer... brilliant poetry dear Vienna..

Ink Empress December 9, 2023 at 9:14 PM Wow so many deeply moving questions here sweet rose, i love the cadence of this and the depth of your heartfelt emotions expressed in such eloquence. I love emerald eyes and your mention of lotus. I wrote a minichu few days ago and mentioned lotus but didnt post yet. This feels like an evocative that comes from a very deep place. That ending is brilliant! A definite fave this is for me. Pleasure reading you. I hope you are feeling a bit better today? Ink Empress December 9, 2023 at 10:47 PM Oh no, try honey and lime and also ginger mixed. Get well soon rose.
