Juniper Rain

k i n d n e s s
is the petrichor perfume
enveloping the sky,
between~
             you and I
as clouds splatter juniper sprinkles,
coalescing stubborn storms,
rinsing away stained foams
with raining roses,
serenading hymns of heaven,
calming the internal conflicts
like soft rays of morning stars…

Tonight, I follow the distant sirens,
echoing sagas of the soothing sun,
seeking c o m f o r t
through soft feathers,
unfurling love laced in lilac
   and lavender,
while candles and crystals
radiate radiant rubies,
elevating elegance,
enhancing z e s t.
For in the corners of my heart~
thrive twinkling tendrils
of tulip twilight,
wishing upon swirling sparks
of firefly wings;
 'let this world be a diamond haven,
        where compassion is the dialect
              that eases thunder-struck seas..'

So remember…
I’ll be there when curtains close.
Listen to the breeze
carrying my prose,
written with timeless glitters.

Tell me that I am the name,
the crooning tern that glides above
resilient ripples’ whispers.
Tell me that the mauve moon 
veiled  in mellow mists
 reminds you of me…
      as I still weave k i n d n e s s 
         in kaleidoscopic ink,
to erase the darkness
          that f a l l s upon your silken silhouette.

Dearest Inky! Congratulations are in order for your beautiful POTD! It is stunning in it poetic expression. So many beautiful alliterations and images. "Let the world be a diamond haven where compassion is the dialect." Just one of your amazing lines, dear friend along with the last two lines. Your poetic skill flows from line to line like water in a waterfall. This is romantic and wistful all at the same time! Blessings of joy to you! Samzy ~
