Hourglass Secrets

Here’s to endless sapphire crystal yearning

with ambitions of ink splashed onto white,

and mossed soliloquy patterns burning,

wrought willfully with telling words poets write.

 

Even forbidden storms know hourglass secrets

where desires stretch past dawn deep into night.

Even grace escapes dignified regrets

that whisper bittersweet amethyst rain rites.

 

 

Emotions silence blooms an eloquence reprieve,

crumbled sand mounds speak of tranquility,

and

perhaps, if we wait patiently, we might conceive

compositions of pearl-born tapestries.

How I can, in my six years on this site, have missed a writer of such sublime skill for so long is a mystery! Anyone who can attract praise from a writer of the brilliance of Linda van Tassell must certainly be a force worth dealing with!
This poem contains subtleties my old head has yet to unravel, but there is no doubting the elegance of their expression. The several references to blue hues--"pearl-born, amethyst, sapphire"--suggest to me the sea's mocking of the sky by emulation of it's true hue in her reflected illusory one. Am I anywhere near your intended meaning?

Thank you very much. Your comments are very generous and kind.

Beautiful! your vocabulary is amazing.. all those wonderful words I don´t even know, or know how to use like that. Great job!

[Josie E. Cook M. A.]

simple words turned into beauty on the page by the writer with a pen.
I love this and the flow of it, and how the colors form the pictures before my eyes as I read it, and take in the meanings.

your welcome............

[Linda Marie Van Tassell]

The first two lines are a brilliant introduction to the poem, giving a toast through your words, weaving them throughout, then ending with possibly receiving compositions of pearl-born tapestries. Your poem does have that certain shimmer and glimmer that only a true poet can divine, words to wrap around as though the nacre of a pearl. Great job!

[Revery]

Thank you for your comments. I'm am flattered by your visit and kindness.

I just don't come over here enough, sorry. This is truly beautiful. The way you speak of wanting to write. Patiently waiting to reemerge, like a rebirth almost. Sometimes stepping away for a little bit can be exactly what is needed to get the creative juices flowing. Very nice.

[Revery]

For someone who claims to not be able to interpret peoples writing, you nailed it. Thank you.
