Lyrical Acrolect

P o e t r y fills my heart 
with lyrical acrolect:
slowly swaying 
my fingers
   to outstanding octaves, 
through 
  ecstatic 
  liberated librettos, 
uplifting in a 
  medley of 
   melancholic motions.
I n k is bleeding 
in nocturnal nouns,
composing charismatic 
choruses in 
eclectic shades~
of 
violet and vermilion, 
and quiet quill 
is still searching 
for a 
sentimental serene serenade,
every letter 
meticulously moonwalks 
between lines 
of  silver and grey, 
engrossing beats  
of a heavy heart
in subtle 
   soulful synonyms.

In a dynamic 
world of word weaving,
poet’s depict a 
choir of chronicles
from 
   mellifluous escapades,
merged in
   magnetic metaphors
and synchronized similes,
glamorizing pain
in heavenly 
harmonious juxtapositions,
whilst singing tales 
of oxymorons,
ranting through a 
   rhythm of rhymes,
forming sonorous sonnets
with sensitive syllables.

But these are 
encrypted musings 
of my citrine heart.

In realms of a reality 
that dreams breathless~
behind a 
terrain of tercets 
and porcelain prose.
For life as 
  an abundant artist
is a premature platform,
where e m o t i o n s
    are expressed through 
introverted introspections
once hidden in 
   the hush of hours.

Your writing is like biting into a rich devil's food cake dotted with white chocolate. You expand my vocabulary with your alliterations. Your introverted introspection extols tintabulations of words. It hums a dulcimer tune.

IE, I liked the title....I had not heard the word before and needed to look it up. So....you are moving toward an idea perhaps where you can capture your thoughts in the best way possible. You have such an expressive vocabulary, I can't imagine anything more descriptive or wonderful. Perhaps we are more constrained in thought in US, but I hardly view your images as limited in any way.

So profound this is, dearie. Love all those references to poetic devises, like a poem within a poem. Also it's so cool to play with the spacing of letters inside a word. You tied this one up splendidly.

Adorned in ornate vocabulary, as always, Ink. Your poetic prowess dazzles throughout, my friend. --composing charismatic choruses in eclectic shades---every letter meticulously moonwalks between lines of silver and grey, engrossing beats of a heavy heart--WOW! A FAVE!

That is a great title dear.. Your poem elegantly delves into the essence of poetry as a vessel for the soul's expression. The opening lines beautifully depict the profound impact of poetry, likening it to a symphony that fills the heart with lyrical richness. The imagery of 'ink bleeding in nocturnal nouns' and the quest for a 'sentimental serene serenade' evoke a sense of deep introspection and the search for emotional resonance within language.
