We dance in ruby-rose rooms

MY LIFE IN FAIRYTALES...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A tapestry of tailors sit time-woven

In topaz tents under a tamarind tree

As our dreams of soft drifting daylight

Sway in diamond dewdrops of dawn

In an enchanted palace with my princess

While I uncover her devouring delight

Opal opulence alive on our orchid ottoman

All within her eyes are ocean-sweet orchards          

And we dance in ruby-rose rooms

Ever she my Eve in the entrance

To emotion’s Earth in ethereal evanescence

Looking-glass adventures in her amethyst affection

An aroma of lush apples from Wonderland

While ecstasy’s echoes enchant my

Evergreen reflections of her evening eyes

Magnolia castles of marble magnificence

Shelter us as we ride our misted memories and

Sail over sapphire sands on sage seahorses.

Could this be anymore perfect? Every word is crafted with such precision, it just flows like a lovely waterfall. It seems as if you should be reciting this to some fair maiden on a balcony over a luscious garden. I can't pick out my favorite line because they all are. This is a lullaby of love. Simply beautiful.

I loved the lyrical likeness in your word choices..........so beautiful!
And you painted the most amazing dreamworld here. If I were Alice, I'd never want to wake up! Thank you for adding this to the world.

This is great. I love it. It was exciting to read and ever to romantic and a little erotic. Beautifully composed Craig.

I have always felt like Alice in the chaos of it all! I absolutely love this poem from the pic to the dreamer suggestions to the sailing over sapphire sands on sage seahorses! It take a very Dr. Suess kinda poet to write in such precision! WELL DONE!!!!!!!!

[Boldpen]

I loved this. It had a kind of calmness yet excitement, Silence yet music....
It amazes me how you so beautifully produced suck a wonderful poem that made me swing in my seat.
Wow!.... It was one of the most beautiful pictures I've ever seen drawn through words.
Great job. Really Great Job!

"All within her eyes are ocean-sweet orchards"

This line is brilliant. I don't know why I like it. Maybe it has to do with the eyes. Eyes are the windows to the soul. Every poem from you is a gift to us. Can never stop reading them. It's bizarre how your poetry soothes me.
