Sotto Poet Poet Etheree

Notes About The Poem

Potted Lilac

Written: December 10, 2023
                 ____________________________________

 Soft cashmere amethyst blossoms twinkle.
lilac lace of their heavenly voice
awaken singing the spotlight
life within a swamp mallow
ideal tint spring scent
vases full hiding
vision disguise
blue on the
outside
you
sky
purple
hues ascend
smoke on water
nature's and fragrance
moving from sniffing soap
lilacs on the backyard bench
scent of fresh rose in a glass vase
with a scent reminiscent of spring
from lilacs and rainfall, the sun appears.

Vijay Pandit December 11, 2023 at 6:45 AM Soft cashmere amethyst blossoms twinkle---beautiful opening to a beautiful poem, my friend. And a lovely closing as well: scent of fresh rose in a glass vase with a scent reminiscent of spring---

Ink Empress December 10, 2023 at 9:46 PM Absolutely stunning colors and flow in this poem dr sotto, but this isnt a tetractys, it is a double etheree maybe by mistake you’ve put it under tetractys. thought of letting you know: i love the opening line in this the most, “ Soft cashmere amethyst blossoms twinkle. lilac lace of their heavenly voice“ captivatingly ethereal and so very well articulated. “ scent of fresh rose in a glass vase from lilacs and rainfall, the sun appears.” What an ending! Deeply touching and soulful. So Artistic

Valsa George December 10, 2023 at 9:35 PM Your poem is as beautiful as your image. Lilacs are lovely flowers that have found a unique place in the poems of Walt Whitman. I remember having read the poem When Lilacs in the Last Dooryard Bloomed. The air is made fragrant with the smell of blooming lilacs and roses and the backyard is perfumed with the smell lilac soaps. Gifted with the abundance of words to put all your thoughts into beautiful verse, you are blessed, dear friend.

Silent One December 10, 2023 at 11:39 AM Lovely flower themed poem my friend. From the first words you can see the colourful imagery from the first line in your poem and you have done two which compliment each other perfectly... lovely shades of purple. I have a purple poem, maybe I should post it one day.
