Moonstone Melodies

Rainbow moonstone celestial
adularescence, transforming milky way white, 
pale azure luster to an electric sapphire 
Luminescence consistent beauty 
Never ending, blending its cadence 
with the colors of the rainbow
Sprinkling  the  Universe ~
Stripping its steely metallic moon
Sacred stones spilled upon earth 
Timeless and mysterious moonstone
Adorning her ring finger flaunting, adoring
An ascendant jewel coiled demurely 
around the nape of her neck,
formerly worn by the moon goddess’s
perfuming melodies and ballads 
Now ethereal beauty's, both are fetching
An antique amulet she keeps in her grip
A clustering carcanet seen by a few
A rivière resting atop her breasts
A priceless periapt symphony she gives into~
its melody, surrendering to palliating powers
Queen of her own throne rich in clairvoyance
Graceful, feminine and demure

Anaya, you bring beauty to a new level of what's possible. Makes me think she could be one of the welcome and good gods we could look up to. The feminine qualities are currently in short supply!

Ty, you're very kind! So true, Duke. I should have given the goddess a personality, I'm sure she is just as melodic as the moonstone. Lol. It's all about the Moonstone Melodies!

Dear Anaya, a truly mesmerizing journey through the ethereal beauty of moonstones. I absolutely loved your lyrics, which created a stunning picture of these mystical gems, intertwining their physical allure with celestial magic. Yes, Your words shimmer like the very moonstones you describe. Breathtaking! - Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

Particularly have chosen the rainbow moonstone, there are seven types manufactured for jewelry. I found fantasy somehow, the rest is Ink's poetry which has inspired me and many others. Ty, Daniel, always a pleasure. Xhugsx

Definitely a big contender for Inks contest Anaya, I think she will dive headfirst though the adularescence and swim about in this high-spec piece for quite some time, an extremely well polished up poem, all the best for contest, cheers David

Ty really! A wordsmith so talented as you are, comment as this is worth a jackpot. Do you think adularescence is too bulky? lol adularia, sounds like a disease. its been only fun illuminating moonstones. I really do need an extra 2 minutes for pictorial adjustments and swapping sentences. I appreciate your reviews, David. Fantasy keeps my mind off politics. Cheers! :)
