Spectrum

A Poem by Lewis Davis-Norman
"

Another example of how my style is always changing. Enjoy!

"

 

Slivers of sangria dribbled out

In a dangerous blush. A blade

Of blood, or a voluptuous kiss

On the lips of cerulean sky

 

But shards of amber suspend

Aloft, in bold and ardent fire.

Like lava they carve a serpentine stream

In the ridges of cerulean sky.

 

Canaries flutter in serene stupor

The corn of heaven, rippling with wind

Or a wasp? Beating its malicious wings

In the calm of cerulean sky.

 

A lucid meadow shimmers with sublime

Aura. Breathing in the fresh summer rain

A bud is born. It reaches its spawning stems

Grasping the cerulean sky.

 

Oceans of peace. A utopia where

Sapphires gleam, supple tears of

Gods. Holy waters tenderly gracing

The brow of cerulean sky

 

At last, the stain of sanguine wine

A bruise. The spectrum’s dark side.

Indulgent and unfurling, lustful

It blooms in cerulean sky

"Like lava they carve a serpentine stream" this line is so beautifully written, what a stand out line.. I wish I could be that creative and come up with something as good as that. This paints a vivid portrait in the readers head of a beautiful scenery, with profound metaphors. Very vibrant and powerful good write

Lot of creative energy in this piece, love it! And yet, maybe a voice restrained, trying to say more? The ending felt abrupt, wish you would have kept going some more!

oh no...! ;) You're a writer, you can always create more...!
I love how wordy and colorful this was weaving different textures of natural dynamism. This was the kind of nature poem that evoked a spiritual sense.
