Satin Winged Flowers

Satin Winged Flowers ...by Carrie Richards  and Poet Destroyer

_______________________________________
Let's watch how they cluster in whirlwind ballets, 
lifting like clouds from the dark swampy ground. 
Burrowed in sunlight, then full-bloomed at midnight 
Bouquets of white moths wings, will gather like flowers. 

Rising from shallows, with satin-soft petals, 
circling meadows in small constellations. 
With great expectations, they rise in their journey. 
Star-struck, while seeking the light of the moon.

Poet Destroyer A September 2, 2015 at 1:55 PM Hello Carrie, weeee, this was way out of my box. However, after closing my eyes, I sat in wonder. Wondering how you find beauty in everything you write. Well after 20 minutes. I found imagery sitting on the right side of me. A beautiful rose without fragrance and life So I pictured it rising from the shadows on the outside. The rest took place, after reading and indulging in every one of your lines. Thank you for the lovely experience in collaborating with you. A JOY IT IS~~ LINDA Carrie Richards September 2, 2015 at 2:45 PM A big thanks to you, PD, for the wonderful placement. And may I say, I'm so blown away how quickly, and beautifully, you have been able to fulfill your collaborations on so many poems in such a brief amount of time! You should get a medal !!! Amazing task that you took on, and you met the challenge!! Thank you again!:)
