Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

The Twilight Elixir

Written: October 23, 2023, _____________________________________ A staunch surrender in a twilight embrace. My mind is a hammock, swaying in the space. Dictated dream and lingering shadow. Petal radiance with an evanescent shallow. A passion fragrance, an aroma elixir. A dulcet mellifluous flavor floods flicker My heart's cynosure, an angelic sanitorium. With lissome poise, a sublime emporium. In the depths of my soul, a radiance glows, Scattering impressions as the wind blows. Reminisce on the whispers of crumpled stars, Silently sprinkled across the night's memoirs. Emollient whispers of a forbidden dance, Furtive and fleeting, a forbidden glance. I fear the allure of this elixir spell, Yet the felicity it brings, I cannot quell. The flavor of surrender, fraught with desire, A taste of ecstasy, a blazing fire. Akin to fugacity, it lingers on my tongue, A fleeting moment, yet forever young.

Your wordplay and phraseology are ever so ethereal, dear Sotto! I'm always mesmerized by your pristine word choices and how effortlessly you make them flow with such mellifluous & resplendent rhymes, truly impeccable! I love so many lines here especially "A dulcet mellifluous flavor floods flicker My heart's cynosure, an angelic sanitorium", "Reminisce on the whispers of crumpled stars", "fear the allure of this elixir spell" Your vocabulary is so enriched with graceful poetic aroma.. Loved it
