Aging Auroras

I see angel-waves 
in my mother's heart... 
her lotus anchored ~
in childhood-vase, as
pearl auroras age...

etched to starlight,
I ebb in dreams ~
soothed by sapphires
lovelorn... forlorn...

lake, its breath...
like rose rhyme ~
sun singing...

saffron
lilies 

sage...

Duke Beaufort Date: 12/19/2024 11:09:00 AM Hiya, I love this poem strikes me like and abstract painting. I can think of all the good things that inspire you starting with angel waves. Very spiritual and kind words that diminish into different plants. The way all connects sends my mind on a journey and makes me smile. Login to Reply

Victor Buhagiar Date: 12/15/2024 11:17:00 PM Mothers are always special. (I lost her ages ago, but it's still vivid in my mind or what's left of it). Your poem is brilliant. So much imagery that soothes the mind. Your ending is great as it has two wonderful meanings. Well done. Blessings. Login to Reply

Ink Empress Date: 12/15/2024 12:30:00 AM Gosh this is so beautiful and so descriptive how youv written this for the grounding technique. I feel like your artistic heart and mind sees things in such an artistic manner even when you are grounded, and thats so impressive and i am in awe of your wordplay. I can see through your words, the antiques of childhood vase and pearl auroras aging, thats so deep, how you are so close to your mother and your relationship with her can be felt here too, also love how you are soothed by sapphires, my most fave line here is the “ lovelorn... forlorn...“ wow! What a clever line! And also how youv ended with sage is amazing! How did i not think of sage to describe the taste! What an excellent ending! I can imagine the saffron lilies and smell there. Pleasure reading this poetic jewel! You have a way with words which is unique and magical! Its so good to see you try this form! Best wishes. Sending you light alwaysss star! Login to Reply
