Full Moon Dream


A crystal path I paved 
to the realm of futile triviality 
along the contorted contours 
of the disguised desire
where intrepid roses bloomed 
amidst the spiculed cactus,
the scent took me on mirage trail 
to the oasis of reverie.

In the motif of morphed image 
in my unclosed eyes
the lanced landscape turned 
into a garden of glory.
The fringe of flying clouds  
captured the colors of horizon’s pallet,
the beguiled breeze conducted
the captivating concerto of twilight 
for the ruby moon to rise.

Within my deepening dismay	
you in my orbit gleamed 
with moonshine grace,
while the floating tinsels of silver dust
fluttered like fairy wings 
on your silhouette face.

In mystique night you came enticed,
drifted with argentine flair 
in the amorous aurora
of the sequined moonbeam,
lifted the shroud of secrecy, 
entered my forlorn abode, 
where I dreamed, 
I was the full moon in your sky.

Hello Subimal: Congrats on POTW and I love the striking contrasts right from the start, painting a path where "intrepid roses bloomed / amidst the spiculed cactus." It sets a beautiful, surreal tone that carries perfectly into the next stanza, where nature becomes a symphony in "the captivating concerto of twilight." Your use of alliteration and rich textures gives the entire poem a wonderful, fluid musicality. Blessings, Daniel
