Ink Empress Poet Lyric

Hydrangea Hymn

In the marshmallow 
mirth of blueberry 
beginnings of bliss,
I wish upon stars
that blush behind 
mint-grey memories,
drifting along sheets 
of fluffy daydreams,
across orchid skies. 
For I am carving
silence before the
Goddess of Ocean
ascends and swirls to 
the sterling rays of 
the tulip moon. 
My pen pierces through 
paper promises 
of what tomorrow 
may bestow in blue,
where magic is sketched
from tears of broken
yesterday's drenched in
treacherous currents. 
But tonight I'll 
follow the raindrop
angel sprinkling light
glazed in gratitude,
to compose hymns
of healing with
hydrangea hues.

Hiya Sharma December 30, 2023 at 7:47 PM Those hymns of healing.. Ah, I wish I could hue myself with those hydrangea hues too, which may heal every sadness, brushing away the melancholy, forever..This is such an impeccable anacreontic verse poem, dear Ink! You've absolutely shown the best of skills with alliterations, imageries, metaphors and mellifluous flow. I absolutely love the mention of 'Goddess of Ocean' here, truly defines your signature style! "marshmallow mirth of blueberry beginnings of bliss","stars that blush behind.. "Wow Hiya Sharma December 30, 2023 at 7:51 PM "Tulip moon", " Orchid skies" Ahh, we really think alike, my dear Fairy Goddess.. "magic is sketched from tears of broken yesterday's drenched in trecherous currents" Gosh, this is beautiful and absolutely resonating with me at the moment..but those yesterday's drenched in treacherous currents don't seem to leave my side for now hmm.. This should be a top win in the contest, definitely.. A FAV for me :)

Sam Kauffman December 30, 2023 at 9:45 AM Dearest Inky, I feel like a rainbow just sat down for a cup of tea with me, especially since I just saw a rainbow! Your use of color in your imagery to express your theme is just pure magic - as magical as a rainbow. And, now I know why your poetry is so musical as we share a love of playing the piano and both of us are musicians! Delightful as seeing a rainbow! This is an enchanting poem. I know it will do well. Best wishes for the contest. Blessings for the new year my friend!

Blessings to you always and your writings. Hugs

Tonye George December 29, 2023 at 9:38 AM "where magic is sketched from tears of broken yesterday's" I love this piece and I appreciate the fact that healing is presented. To every hurt or failed promises, there healing to sail through. Terrific one, Ink, compliments of the season.

Yann Rolland December 29, 2023 at 7:47 AM this is so artful, some happiness felt in the poem, i guess hydrangea is a flower, don't really know, i am such an ignorant, enjoyed your beautiful poem yann

Silent One December 29, 2023 at 6:44 AM Only you could write an Anacreontic verse full of metaphors and there are so many, I do not know where to start from.. Marshmallow birth of blueberry beginnings, sheets of fluffy dreams and tulip moon... I hope 2024 is not full of treacherous currents for you and it is a year full of blessings and all your hopes, dreams and aspirations come true and everything you have been waiting for arrives and you become happy... good luck in the contest..

Vijay Pandit December 29, 2023 at 5:52 AM Such a lovely tone and flow, Ink--and awesome images woven in this lovely hymn!--In the marshmallow mirth of blueberry --mint-grey memories, drifting along sheets of fluffy daydreams--where magic is sketched from tears of broken. A FAVE for this beauty!

Sotto Poet December 29, 2023 at 5:50 AM "But tonight I'll follow the raindrop angel sprinkling light glazed in gratitude, to compose hymns of healing" Dear Ink, Healing with angels is a unique and effective method of feeling better emotionally. Both the words and the imagery are quite potent and have the ability to induce feelings of calm. It is similar to receiving a loving hug that makes you feel secure and content. Wonderful pen truly.

Regina Mcintosh December 29, 2023 at 3:26 AM This : My pen pierces through paper promises - AND - this: follow the raindrop angel sprinkling light glazed in gratitude, - These words, these images, are so compelling.
