Poetry's Pride

Elysian ellipses of poetry's pride...
     a literary litany that draws from
sunlit and moonlit 
     eloquent emanations ensuing 
silent shadows that follow 
     mystical movement, 
integrating intrigue. 

Passion and beauty 
     fuel fecund imaginations
expressed from a Bard's bucolic 
     and loquacious, 
luscious machinations, 
     sharing a gem of their soul.
Wrap me in your 
     timeless treasures and
leave me to bask breathless 
     in poetry's pride!
