Vijay Pandit Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Jewel That Took the Crown

A coral pink design on glistening ruby tapestry--
Reminiscent of ingenuity of sculptor's blueprints
In scarlet-orange tinges and teal-green imprints
Hanging spectacularly in the cosmic art gallery.

You are the brushstrokes of Florentine artistry--
Verses of poetry scripted in ornate vocabulary
Articulating the vision of a star studded galaxy
Flying in the universe on wings of your beauty.

The scent of purple heliotropes you often vied for
Lingers in search of your golden yellow persona
Since you left the earth floating on dream clouds
Ingesting dusty gases to forge your own replica.

Jealous are the stars of your blushing rose motif
Shaped like a monarch besting your surroundings,
An ornament you are, flashing your royal charm--
Jewel that took the crown from dying supernova.

Valsa George January 30, 2022 at 2:37 AM I was wondering what jewel could be that took the crown. After reading your poem, now I clearly understand...! What an astral beauty you have painted in words.... ! You are an artist , nay a painter cum poet. How well the colors, the words and the image blend. This goes into my fav.
