Smoky Dreams 'Neath Rainbow Rings

Smoky Dreams ‘Neath Rainbow Rings

Oh, you are so cool,
opaquely bright,
clear prism shattering
true light

				And you
				red glowing sweat
				condensed containment
				flaming tears

Draw near to me
let me consume
your crystallized
angelic plume

				I dare not
				lest I extinguish
				the molten core
				of lava’s anguish

You fall into
a silent night

				You rise upon
				a roaring light

our lives
		but aimless
				wanderings

smoky dreams
			‘neath
					rainbow rings

I am so impressed with your ability to unite the disparate elements of this poem, which in the hands of ones less gifted would merely be contrived. Beginning to end: engaging!
