Blood Stone Jewel

An iridescent sapphire cuts into the night’s sky clearly 
a gift unasked for and predestined appears solidity
love is the luster smelted inside the eastern chambers afar
 
Hooked upon the waxing moon’s burgeoning smile that shines
mesmerizing silver shadows dance under your bloodstained beams
beckoning freedom in an heavenly escape reflects back unconditionally 
 
A tantalising call nurtured on the precarious wind surrounds the soul
shaded Sacred Heart images dance beckoning inside chorographic unison
never imagined acceptance of grace awaits in your tender loving embrace


A co-written piece by Liam Mcdaid & Donna Loughman unrhymed tercets

Hello Liam Mate!! A brilliant Tercet collaboration by you and Donna here. The imagery you've weaved into the nine verses are immediately impressionistic and quite eloquent. This makes readers appreciate the message of this wondrous poem even more!! Superb Work!! Cheers and Best, Gary
