The Ocean's Princess

And so a rainbow becomes the sky
She inspires the beauty within us all
I spy bluebirds flying through the green
Golden fields shimmer and sheen
She's everything this life needs

And so a raindrop sparkles bright
Beaches of gold twinkle on cerulean oceans
Her eyes shine with the sun
and so she blesses everyone
She's everything I've ever needed

Seafoam rises on a stardust path
In Jupiter's forest I am no longer blue
Do you remember those sepia days?
Magenta robes flowed with praise
If I could truly describe the adoration...

And so, she illuminates the night
She weaves mauve and indigo in her dress
Butterflies flap their emerald wings
Jeweled flowers shake their petals to sing
as she brightens up my darkest hours

I like the symbolism you add to this poem, like the use of bluebirds to signify hope and better times. Not sure about the repetition of "and so" three times. You use vivid imagery that captures the imagination of the reader, painting beautiful pictures in words. This is your strength I think. Nicely done.

I'm listening to Lana Del Rey and this just flowed amazingly with the the song. Love it

As usual I can see everything you write. A great writer you are!

[Keith LaFountaine]

Great use of imagery and symbolism. Your poem is practically dripping in meaning. The flow is great (though, I would remove the comma in the first line of your last stanza; it's not needed). Great work!
