“Sometimes dreams allow you to drift through unfathomable realms of Bliss” ~ by Poet Across the golden gossamer clouds, I drift Through valleys of void, in a chimeric dream, Where stardusts of peace waltz with steps so swift - I see diamond doves soar above a stellar stream Through valleys of void, in a chimeric dream, When time stops his rhythm in an oblivious bliss, I see diamond doves soar above a stellar stream - Graceful faces, I glimpse, of those I dearly miss When time stops his rhythm in an oblivious bliss, Amidst a flurry of feathers in rainbow hues, Graceful faces, I glimpse, of those I dearly miss And sweet heavenly fragrances seem to diffuse Amidst a flurry of feathers in rainbow hues Where stardusts of peace waltz with steps so swift And sweet heavenly fragrances seem to diffuse, Across the golden gossamer clouds, I drift

I see this was a winner. Way to go, Ani I am here on cell phone while my daughter is sleeping in her chemo chair. Had a good Xmas and will take Angie to lunch when she finishes here.

Wasn't sure I understood what this was about until I read line eleven. Missing people amidst the stars of heaven. Nice writing Anitha

In a dream, you can float on "golden gossamer clouds," and feel the "flurry of feathers in rainbow hues." This is beautiful, magical and spiritual, all at the same time. Your thoughts caress softly around me and my heart. Many wonderful blessings to you, Anitha. Hugs, Brandy

This is so divine dear Ani. You are such an amazing poet. So many beautiful, poetic lines.

What a graceful Pantoum...light yet meaningful...your lines are full of depth and wisdom. I, too, would love to drift across the golden gossamer clouds to see those I dearly miss. Outstanding.

Dearest Ani, your ethereal pen waltzes gracefully with delicate imagery upon the poetic page. Your pantoum glows with golden beauty, lovely rhymes and vivid impressions. "golden gossamer clouds" and "diamond doves" and "stardusts of peace" - such splendor! Warmest wishes my sweet friend.. ~Susan

Wow I absolutely love this pantoum! The imagery, rhymes and depth of your descriptive wordplay truly blew me away. I love the alliterations too, seamlessly they flow in such eloquence. And my fave lines here are “ i see diamond doves soar above a stellar stream” “ flurry of feathers in rainbow hues” “ stardust of peace waltz” ah the wordplay here is so celestial and stellar definitely fitting for the ethereal theme! I loved reading this. Definitely a top winner! Goodluck for the contest

Thank you so much S1 for your appreciation of my Pantoum. If my memory is right, it was after reading one of your Pantoum poems at the time I joined Soup,.... I forgot the name of the poem... I got inspired to try this form. Thank you again for the inspiration. Glad you'll be writing a Pantoum too for this... God bless.. ~ Ani

My goodness, dearest poetess, this isn't just a poetic scribble, but a whole piece of ethereal art in every possible way.. I'm absolutely enchanted by your eloquent phraseology here and how delicately you've carved such magical word-pairings.. You truly are a Gifted poetess and this pantoum style (which I haven't tried yet) is truly written brilliantly by your artistic quill! "Amidst a flurry of feathers in rainbow hues", "stardusts of peace", " Diamond doves" Purely ETHEREAL and a FAV :)
