Ink Empress Poet Cinquain

sailing in silence

d r e a m e r s
     trace the   rose    moon
                  like poets chasing   w a v e s 
       of   silver  sparkles   sailing  in
                          s   i  l  e  n  c  e

   and yours
                is the   heartbeat
I     ache  for      in the  dark
               beneath the  f a d i n g   glow of jinxed
                           s   u   n  s  e   t   s

Valsa George February 6, 2025 at 7:41 PM This is so sweet and short and touches the heart with its romantic intensity and deep sense of yearning. You are adept in every form of poetry dear Empress." In the fading glow of jinxed sunsets."..... Lovely image!

Duke Beaufort February 6, 2025 at 8:42 AM IE, I’m taken by your passion. I do hope you have smooth sailing!! It’s not easy to stay out of troubled waters and locate the blue lagoon. Many have struggled with this. I know you will take good care of yourself and those near! Smiles!!!

Victor Buhagiar February 5, 2025 at 9:41 AM Written with evocative imagery and vivid emotions, a couple of cinquains display love gained and lost. Always elegant language. The light is always with you.

Tonye George February 5, 2025 at 9:25 AM Short, precise and lovely written. "like poets chasing waves of silver sparkles sailing in silence." We poets chase almost everything especially the things that do not have voices.

MD Johnson February 4, 2025 at 9:47 PM Beautifully done. It’s an elegant intertwine of the wistful beauty of moonlit dreams and the aching desire of the heart. Captivating and evocative —MDJ
