Wastwater's Enchantment

Beneath the cobalt veil nothing blows. Lying vast but still, a cloth of silken black. Only an amiable ripple articulates its presence. Imposing contours loom purposely Declaring their magnificence And my insignificance. Illuminations pin pricked into the veil above. More than you could count Even with a lifetime given. A Prince of unquestionable pedigree. Enticingly fragile. Dauntingly resolute.

Paul, Your poem is so intriqing that when I read it, I just had to Google Wastwater. The images are beautiful. Almost as beautiful as the words that you have used to describe them. This is a very nice poem. Loveingly, Dane
