Array ( [sid] => 39575 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Sky Fall [time] => 2004-03-21 06:41:28 [hometext] => The clouds embody dreams so dear; in bolts of doubt and acrid tears. (Cryptic? As ever.) [bodytext] =>
A weave of feath’rey patchwork that cascades across the skies
Where mem’ries make tomorrow and the sunlight takes disguise
When oceans waltz in sapphire steps and the wing’ed hope still flies
And no one understands a word the lost breeze still implies

A gentle run bequeathed in sun through brilliant rays reverse
Where skies dye gold in time foretold and raindrops all disperse
The silent song where joy belongs in timeless word’s traverse
And woe is but a singsong line in shimm’ring rainbow verse

Drifting high beyond despair, sinking down below night’s stare
The tender kiss of white on air, a fleeting wisp that soothes the glare
Enticing minds in fragrant care, nocturnal roses drunk on prayer
Omnipresent yet still so rare, when happiness still frolicked bare

The perfect night of dazzling right and frivolous monsoons
Whence shadows prance star-stuck romance and twinkle children’s June
The wishes carried on by drafts and evening gone too soon
When clouds aligned in silver steps the stairway to the moon

A waft of night intoxicates depression through the gloom
Aloft delight reciprocates regressions of the loom
Where winking jewels beset the sky and death is in full bloom

Finesse redresses midnight heir and life becomes the tomb

I'm not sure what's more staggering---your command of rhyme, meter, and vocabulary...or how perfectly you employ them into incredible poetry such as this. This has everything in place, and that professional touch and polish that i've come to expect (and respect) from you. Magnificently written.

Truly,
-V.S.

Cryptic, yet rapturous.
The 2nd line, 4rth stanza was particularly impressive . . .

"Whence shadows prance star-stuck romance and twinkle children’s June"

A lesson in rhyme and structure I will pay heed to...
Thanks for sharing.
