When finally I get rid of a migraine attack and can't stop writing. Hah. Took me on a spiritual journey through words. 
 

“I Am as I Am complete Though ego opines otherwise Invoking grace we feel God’s heartbeat  What else does there remain for us to realise” Unseeking Seeker
When the sun and soul speak in seraphic silence, I listen to the sacred songs within my inner psyche, resonating with vibrant vibrations amidst macabre melodies, tapping on gardenia gateways crafted in sheer gracefulness. In stillness, when the solar skies are wrapped in cosmic eruptions, portraying the angst suppressed within, I rise and shine as the glimmer of purified gold outlining the phoenix moon with citrine cinders, while ego consistently tries to veil the jasmine radiance, like dominoes falling in shifting patterns within porcelain prosperity. But I refuse to be trapped in a vortex of vicious visions, persisting in following clusters of cluttered thoughts. I embrace myself beyond any conditioned concepts that seek validation from superficial voices and material artifacts. The mind of a spirit consumed with fears is a capricious entity, stealing the perennial blades of fragrant ferns thriving in the wildflower woods of silken serenity. So tonight, I strum with patience and mindfulness delicate strings of vulnerability, tuning sanguine symphonies that drift and waver out of harmony, to illustrate a choir of pixie fairies, illuminating the magic of love from self-acceptance. For I am both dusk and dawn; amethyst ashes and emerald embers, chanting muted mantras to the rhythm of Kundalini. I’ve seen dandelions dance like dragonflies before twinkling trinkets. I’ve waltzed through cascading fire, hypnotized by the luminous light that gently envelops my mystical ink. I’ve heard the wintry willows whisper woeful odes into the nocturnal night. I was once tangled in narcissistic games of fickleness, and I’ve tasted scathing opinions served on silver platters. Yet, I still feel the aesthetic warmth of intuitive spring radiate in roseate rituals, unlocking the crown chakra to align with chamomile constellations, in complete divinity. Through nurtured nature, I’ve attained sublime euphoria bestowed from the seventh star, reflecting God’s heartbeat. O enlightened heart, let the wind and waves intertwine to paint a halcyon horizon, while galaxies sketch eagle-winged silhouettes from unicorn flashes. The mauve Milky Way witnesses how cashmere seas of clouds reveal an Elysian crescent, awakening a tranquil twilight etched with a zestful zenith.

Lovely written. Congratulations on your win. Always on flick with the alliterations. "I’ve seen dandelions dance like dragonflies before twinkling trinkets. I’ve waltzed through cascading fire, hypnotized by the luminous light that gently envelops my mystical ink." Loved this and many others. Hugs and kisses.

You are the master of alliteration. I'm sure it was hard for Unseeking Seekers to choose between the top 3 winners. They are all so good. Thanks for sharing!

Congratulations on your win, Empress! "embrace myself beyond any conditioned concepts that seek validation from superficial voices and material artifacts" "I was once tangled in narcissistic games of fickleness, and I’ve tasted scathing opinions served on silver platters" I resonate w/your soul. You're a god-send, for the better, undeniable a trend-setter. Those afraid of any change, I see all around us. Poets at first who didn't understand & ridiculed,are now writing beautiful poetry inspired by you!;)

Alliterations galore, wonderful imagery and masterful metaphors, a conglomeration of great talent that depicts the phoenix's rising from ashes to inspiring ideas of divinity. Best for a win. May God's light be always with you.

Very descriptive lines penned in this one. Sad to learn about having a migraine. A real migraine or what people say jestingly about you are giving me a migraine. I have always had headaches all my life but not to the extent that I think a migraine would be. Always on one side of my head. Strange. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Sara K

Walking through fire, after being charred into cinders, I see you emerging like a phoenix. "Yet, I still feel the aesthetic warmth of intuitive spring radiate in roseate rituals, unlocking the crown chakra to align with chamomile constellations, in complete divinity. " This is the transformation you are through. This is radiant rebirth. "I rise and shine as the glimmer of purified gold outlining the phoenix moon with citrine cinders," This is majestic renewal.... ! Love the spirit of resilience you have achieved when you pay heed to the whispers of your soul. Great poetry dear Empress.

Lovely write, Kindred Soul. I sense the Phoenix arising of your soul in this one. I love how you are starting to intertwine the material with the natural & spiritual. I enjoyed lines where you use “I”, sounds so authentic: I still feel the aesthetic warmth of intuitive spring/I’ve attained sublime euphoria/I’ve heard the wintry willows whisper/I’ve tasted scathing opinions :these lines indicate depth knowledge of Self. Lots of love 2 Maldives.Are you willing to indicate which part you are on?
