Memoir From Paradise

On dappled hill I stand Flowers at its command, Trees blazing like Lakshmi star With essence, breath in awe. Fireflies rustling, aglow; This paradise, near than far Where swan flits low To prepare dawn’s tableau, All these, locked in sweet memoir. ------ Ballasi Stanza Contest by nette onclaud

This is an enlightening write, very powerful poem! I may not be on much for about week, I'm having problems with my teeth, big pain, I can't seem to get anyone to really help me...I always have to wait until they have an opening for me to get in even if it is an Emergency! So I must wait until Monday, and I am in a lot of pain these days, there are at least 2 teeth that need removal...I'm afraid of having pain all through the weekend! So now think of me these few days! I'll try to get on soon!

I'm vaguely familiar with what you speak of here. This was another atmospheric beauty of a writing.

We have Goddess Laxmi, the goddess of wealth and happiness, in Hindu Religion. But never knew it to be a star of that name, nette

This can only be quilled by one who feels and knows what the core of splendor is. To see magnificence in a snaps of a moment is admirable. A most cherished piece from paradise! Enough said.
