Rebellious Rhapsody

Rebellions Rhapsody


She had earned the sapphire talisman
freed herself from need’s plethoric drive
ceased longing for the dulcet drone
of felicity’s failing evanescence.
The chrysalis of crumbling youth -
idyllic illusion – awakening
her radiant, rhapsodic rebellion.

Lin, I always like to see if I can get the "words" to play nice together.
