Notes About The Poem

Sequined and Ambrosia

On wayward ivy 
 calyx in woodlands

       a spruce-blue butterfly

sparkling rustles 
       of 
   sweet wind chant
       swings in the ethereal morning light

    legato lilts silken waves
in 
   sequined ambrosia shades

crimson undertones 
   on 
 oyster weaves

moonstone 
& 
damask 
   mist hummed melodies

   a list of nostalgic queries
 collude to bind

metamorphosis of spirit 
   and 
personality 
   through social awareness

 referred
    to self and to you

  harbinger
of 
  love and light

   sparkling
 through tonight's sky

We all need a kind of metamorphosis through social awareness generating beams of love. The butterfly and the morning you have described seem so ethereal. Congratulations on your great win, dear friend.
