The Jasmine Moon Date: Friday, 2nd January 2004 @ 09:16:38 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: Blaze Stepping onto a mound of sand with unclothed feet As blades of emerald grass sweep across them The soothing, frosty winds shower me with pebbles I cast my eyes upon the night’s lambent pearl The sky stretches with shards of sapphire Echoing the moon’s lustrous aura The water’s lathery waves bask in its glory While aspiring doves encircle the stars As I rinse my feet in the red ocean wine Still staring at the full jasmine moon The sky and waters mirror my star-crossed soul Oblivious mind and spirit bleed The blood-red sea embraces my soul As sapphire shards rain down The roaring tide subsides and my figure ebbs Though the trivial mind wanders free This poem is Copyright © Blaze Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
