Pale Clouded Blue

Several stars from a tinderbox
gathered by a pale butterfly
somewhere in the vast lands of my dreams
Dragons of red pinstripe flutter
on skies of cerulean ice
I wish I could live here forever

I left my heart in the shallow lake
sparkling with the heartbeat of rosewater
I remain, waiting for the midnight sun
This tranqility is the elixir of happiness
somehow, this eludes me in my waking hours
so I'll all the stardust while I can

Quite a poetic write you have here. I really like how you mixed the imagery of the nature with the feelings.

Lovely place you show by your poem. We all want to see that pond, that environment. Loveya.

A little different from what I have read of your style, but a lovely surprise. This piece is very romantic with just an undercurrent of the noir. A classic write.
