Magic Once More

Blue moonlight is rare.

I remember a cobalt moon,
when tidal passions bathed,
azure souls reflecting euphoric rapture.

Captured in every day luminescence,
I am magical and perfectly white,
spellbound in the golden orb of night.

Contently striding weather worn trails,
following unrest to my reflecting pool,
needing conformation I am simply a man.

At my invitation, she is graciously present,
accepting the blossom of the purple lotus,
embracing me in pleasures of the goddess.

In her eyes I see she knows the man,
singing gently to me, enchanted whispers,
sustaining me until the sapphire moon gleams once more.

Author's Note

I used different words for the various chroma of blue. Much like love has many subtle variations.
The purple lotus represent spiritual or magical understanding. Color maters...

Hi David :) This is so vivid and dreamy. "I am magical and perfectly white"...wow! Gorgeous poetry, sir. I'm keeping this one :)

Oh... how sweet. Thank you. Looks a bit like your blue water waterfall.

Lynn means waterfall. Why I choose it. It's my name :)

[David Scott]

I wrote a poem to my favorite waterfall... I'll send it to you.

blue is my favorite color and love the different ways you included in this write.. you kinda did have me "spellbound" with this write.. I think it was a breathtaking mix of imagery and the flow of this beautiful piece.. then you sneak in a subtle vulnerability and it tugs on those already vibrating heart strings.. sometimes that confirmation is needed in us all.. we all need that god/goddess to show us the pleasures of life and help us answer that which we question in ourselves.. nicely done David.. you are such a talented writer..

[David Scott]

Your comments bring light to my heart. Thank you.

[Lyn Anderson]

This is truly amazing, and possibly, my favourite of yours I have read. Sorry, just don't have a critique. You captured beautifully the colour and the feel.

[David Scott]

Thank you KL. Sometimes a poem is just a kibble treat. ;)

' .. I am magical and perfectly white .. '

What a wonderful use of words and colour, shades and tones in harmony throughout. You have that special ability to create thought-threads in this reviewer's mind, And for some reason, I now want to dash out into my dusk-wet garden to see if there's a message framed in blue waiting for me.

[David Scott]

Thank you Emma. I have been out of commission lately w spinal surgery. Medicated around the clock... My mind has been rather fogged... You are a gentle and generous spirit to me. Sorry I was tardy with my reply.

[emmajoy]

So very sorry to read about your spinal surgery - that's a delicate op whatever the problem; truly hope you recover quite soon, take care of yourself.

As to a late response, i've managed to sleep!!!! You're more than welcome.

[Cryingkate]

I'm not speaking :-) my eyebrows are involuntarily twitching up and down and I feel a cracking grin forming...
I think this means something

[David Scott]

Yikes! I hope you are not having a stroke. :)
Probably just Bells Palsy...
Thank you got reading. Yes, this was sensual for me... True bliss! I'm happy the thought carried over in translation. Sorry for any facial spasms... ;)

[Cryingkate]

Hmmm read it again.. same results.... I don't think it was me that had the strokes....:-)

[Cryingkate]

Still as mesmerizing as it was a year ago.:-)

[David Scott]

Ha. Thank you for the revisited read and review. I should edit this a bit. Too freaking busy. :/

[Cryingkate]

I hear ya.....But I don't see the need.

[Horizon K.]

This was painted like a dreamscape... seeing yourself in white, and yet wondering if that is true at all. Sometimes, it is only through the eyes of others, that we see ourselves anew... we may discover, we are not white at all, but blue and purple hues... anyway, quite a romantic & lovely write.

[David Scott]

Thank you Horizon! Yeah! Good to see your words on my page again...
"Dreamscape" indeed.
