Trail of Diamond Glitter

TRAIL OF DIAMOND GLITTER

Sparkle of smile on child’s radiant face 
Blooming flower of pristine innocence
Lyrics of lattice on butterfly wings 
Tell me how beguiling life is.

Glint of dreams in lovers’ doting eyes 
Shimmering stardust of primal passion
Whispers of yearning in embracing breeze
Tell me how adoring life is.

Cascade of kindness in crystalline heart
Cadence of cool rains in singed summer 
Words of empathy for the agonized souls
Tell me how divine life is.

Azure of abyss in my forlorn mind
Hollow horizon hued at spectral sunset
Trails of diamond glitter you have blazed
Tell me how beautiful life is.

Congrats on your silver medal win, Subimal. Your poem was outstanding and I much appreciated the structure you gave it with your semi-repetitive lines.
