ArielA Poem by crazerfantasy poemAriel From my mundane mezzanine I peer into the waning light, My charcoal heart yearning to ignite As the sinking sun seeps gold and red upon the wooded crown I feel as if the last day of my life is slowly winding down Somehow I know the walls that separate all worlds shimmer and grow weak When fiery Sol leans down and kisses Terra’s sweet and fertile cheek A mad man’s quest I tell myself as I watch shadows spread across the forest floor And I but a childish man drunk on myth and half forgotten lore Was then I saw a flash of white appear and drift up into a leafy bough A phantom draped in silver mist had crossed the gulf somehow At once my heart fluttered and flew out like a bird freed from my prison chest Was then I knew an unseen door had opened to Ariel’s bright unearthly crest Aflame with childlike glee I leapt from my porch and ran wildly toward the trees And as I raced a fawn like angel fluttered down, her beauty buckled both my knees Blue diamond eyes smiling through a shimmering fall of golden sunlight tresses All my longings hopes and needs her presence so sweetly now addresses With tilted head and timid smile she glides to me and takes my trembling hand Then off we fly through burning sky to Ariel to that fabled silver strand © 2013 crazerAuthor's Note
