Purple Dreams In Other Realms

Written: April 24, 2025, for Contest sponsored by: Mystic Rose Rose ************************** Once upon a magical evening an enchanted fairy I happened to see dressed in a fantastical dress with two dappled wings of lace, she shone like the midnight sun; I must confess, she looked rather whimsical sitting there by a green wooden door, waiting for your lore! I serendipitously reached a timeless twilight canvas The fairy whispers of dreams, wings, and aged myths I saw orbs rising in her eyes each star is hanging on her breath The fabric of darkness is knit with marvel She beckoned me to a silent, mystical black ballet Each sparkle was a memory Yet to be lived her grin paved the heavens Together, we soared beyond the horizon's edge, ghosts grow wishes in splotchy shade, as opalescent primrose on an ethereal threshold, fuchsia epitaphs of lustrous fireflies glide by Extending an invitation to discover Similar to sparkling, countless orbs of hydrangea elixir Psychedelic echoes as gold-lilacs slowly wilted I saw orbs emerging in her eyes, as wisteria vines Each star hung on her breath within sangria songs A dazzling white glow stems from spring Juvenile giggling invades the landscape A fairy whirlwind shapes chauvinistic dreams. Spree Silvery jewels from twilight maroon meadows Coral summer nights smell wonderful in purple dreams On this halcyon land fitted snugly in hedgehog twigs. An inquisitive smile spread over her face While she observed the burgundy luna I asked, "Why does darkness color clouds? I believe her dreams may be a cathartic cure.

WOAH! This poem is a stunning dreamscape, lush with imagery and wonder. It moves like a spell, where every stanza shimmers; Your use of color is particularly striking—sangria songs, twilight maroon meadows, fuchsia epitaphs—all evoking deep emotion and ethereal fantasy. There's a strong narrative pull too, like a whispered tale between realms, and the repetition of "each star hung on her breath" is gorgeously haunting. It’s like stepping into a lucid dream spun from lace and lore.

My favorite word ((serendipitous)) and so many lovely words sprinkled (as if by fairydust) through.
