Syzygy

Turquoise tides,
                                  scintillating
                                    traces
                                      drape hushed prairies
                                        in indigo hues.
                                                                  
                                         Dancing to
                                          ballads
                                         of wild breeze,
                                        love soaks
                                     enchanting
                                   moonlit waves,
                                down the crevice in
                             galactic syzygy;

                                                   blend
                                            me in your halo.

Syzygy is a linear configuration of celestial bodies by conjunction or opposition(usually during lunar or solar eclipse). It also represents the fusion or a pair of opposing elements(for instance, the conscious and the subconscious minds).

Ooh, this is deep and mysterious, like the stars. I love the colors, the nature references, the alluring curve on the left side and the surprising ending. All this makes for a beautiful and mystical effect. Well done, Aditi. Stay inspired, my friend
