Pictorial of Stained Glass

Listen to poem:

Written: November 05, 2023 __________________________________________ Glittering glass on gossamer ground untamed saffron blaze tackles its task a flawless waltz Beaded up pristine runaway stars In a bright, shimmering stream weave shards of light onto a string of pearls speaking upon ageless beauty. I'm facing the sky toward shards of dwindling light patterns devoid of time When daylight has faded a caramelized lion and Noah ark coexist placing my palms upwardly focused With you in mind, I venture outside rhapsody vibes under Moon candle dreams seep into reality. My heart, a litmus of love, triggered emotional turmoil. I just wish to offer you the best of myself.

Your poem takes its reader into an experience of illumination and inspiration, my friend. It reminds me of an out-of-the-body experience, being lifted up into the presence of the unknown with only remnants of brief moments of reality sprinkled into your experience. Intriguing poetry and a enjoyable read. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us through your exquisite poetry, my dear friend. Bill

I love how you’ve written this free verse! With alliterations and deeply heartfelt emotions woven in such eloquence, seeing you weave words without rhymes is different but also feels light and soul warming! Runaway stars! Thats so deep! And i love that! Unique way of describing stars! So metaphorical! “ weave shards of light onto a string of pearls“ gorgeous how you get so descriptive and creative with your lines! “ My heart, a litmus of love, triggered emotional turmoil.“ so touching! Fave!

dear Sotto--This poem was mesmerizing as you compare the narrator's desires to a exquisite, ageless, glittering piece of stained glass. Such a touching metaphor! Many of the lines captured my emotions but this one: (my heart, a litmus of love) stood out. You have such a unique gift of writing a variety of types of poems and on a wide range of subjects...impressive. Hope you have a great week ahead, Sara
