Pearl Moon Blooms

Listen to poem:
Written: February 27, 2024 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dwindling diamond daub, an amber glittering glow diaphanous verism of glass and yet… wreathed in wisteria-washed linden a glimpse of moon-pearled butterflies fluttering beyond seventh sky fine shone ivory organza faintly floats in flowy grey garment because... the mirror failed to release her Watch the whispering wind of crestfallen Luna serenade sonatas to the saffron sun, elegance bewilders as a spell whilst imbued in Tuscan fuchsia flowers plated in opalescent enamel healing in her sanguine sanctuary & silvery smooth skin she is the spirit of Aphrodite soaked in ivory color her tears metamorphosing of... ogdoads daffodils. Venus waltzing with Earth zeal of unbreakable bond, floral fragrance felicity an ageless love tale sweet lullaby tweets billets-doux texts spanning the world bien sûr we love extravagance in empathy exulansis excluded eternally hunting for heavenly harmony swirl in seraphic space as Dahlia sighs reach esoteric eyes of lotus Luna breathing silence virtuoso ululation for... a friendship circle.

Dear Sotto, you paint a stunning picture, a symphony of light and grace. The moonlit butterflies, the whispered serenades, and the blossoming spirit of Aphrodite all create a spellbinding tale. The final line, "a friendship circle," beautifully encapsulates the poem's essence, leaving me with a sense of warmth and hope. Simply breathtaking. Bravo! - Blessings, Daniel

Hey Lasaad, we’re all under the influence of the moon tonight, and under the influence of your metaphoric alliteration too, what a beautiful descriptive piece, with words rarely seen in poetry, (some I had to look up) well beyond my pay grade lol! Thank you for enlightening and introducing me to such words and artistry, brilliant! cheers David

SP, When the universe seems organized and all the gods are in harmony, it's a beautiful thing. Fun to read this work and dream about moving from one spot to another in a way not possible in reality.

I felt like I was journeying on magical moonbeams as I read your poem. Your words were intricately woven together and spellbinding.I loved 'moon pearl butterflies' - such a beautiful image! The intertwining of the different verses felt like a harmonious dance. Now when I look at the moon, I'll think of pearl moon and your poem. Truly brilliant, Sotto. Your poetess friend in Texas, Sara

Dear Sotto, A visual odyssey of innate brilliance has graced my eyes. Start to finish I was glued to the screen in anticipation of the next jewel-encrusted line. A seamless glittering cascade. I appreciate your reflections on Rest Of The Story and your wishes for the contest Howard
