Elysian Custodian - Love Esoteric Hunt
Written: April 4th 2025, for contest sponsored by Brian Strand
****************
April arises with a gentle promise
crocuses awaken from their winter dormancy —
while vibrant purples adorn the dawn
nestled amidst luscious emerald
she sparingly scatters her silk-like haze
shades meld mellifluously across the valley
a vibrant orchestra of motley blooms —
heralding the spring dawn
kernel of life intertwines
amid abyss and symbiotic dreams —
a flicker of hope
often amorphous within our profound fears
our impetus entails an egregious custodian
who coxswains with elysian altruism —
slight stingy to hunt love in an esoteric way
while we earnestly long for her
beyond the vast expanse
our exuberant wooers set a strapping pace
however, lurching sapidity may fail
amid lambent blaze —
phoenix rises on the ticking clock
where harmony and love abound
let us vanquish our fears
even though our attempts may falter —
amid the oncoming twilight
a dove finds solace on the banks of time
from which love and tranquility flow —
like exquisite wine
I witness a flock of birds soaring high
only to vanish into the horizon
flowers long for sunlight
as daylight wanes, making way for night —
the moon rises gracefully
a seraphic presence
offering a serenade lullaby—
gather your stars
from far-flung galaxies—
come rescue us,” they plead
voicing their hopes and love
as the waves surge forward
echoes emerge from beaches,
“come rescue me.”
countless voices meld together —
and the sun reappears
was it all in vain?
will we find ourselves in cycle of gain?
“Come and save me; set us free”
