Lotus Minerva

She's

a

diamond

sun of snow,

envied by venus, 

lifting her peacock eyelashes 

to stargaze beyond pinkish petals of mild moonrise, 

enclosing rusts of rosy jealousy in ancient ruins like lotus Minerva.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 1/22/2024 10:02:00 AM Someone did this is mythology but I took it as a flower. Is it personification then? So lovely Login to Reply Hiya Sharma Date: 1/23/2024 6:55:00 AM Dear Andrea, Minerva is actually the Goddess of wisdom and knowledge, it actually relates to mythology and yes, I added lotus here to personify the qualities, so it can be considered as personification as well as a metaphor :) Thank you so much for reading and for your kind words, I truly appreciate it ~ sending love & light!

Duke Beaufort Date: 1/22/2024 2:24:00 AM Well you've really described someone beautiful. If I weren't married and committed to that relationship, I would have to seek her out and see if I could get a date! Funny how there are some planetary references used above. A very memorable piece!

Silent One Date: 1/21/2024 5:55:00 AM Interesting adjective 'lotus Minerva', How would anyone not be jealous of someone so divine.. Your theme is a great choice for this form and has nice imagery using words like 'pinkish petals of moonrise' and peacock eyelashes, I bet Ink will love this one.. Best of luck in the contest dear poetess.. Login to Reply
