Iris Secrets

Post by Windsend » June 16th, 2016, 3:48 am

'

'Iris Secrets'

Lapis Lazuli Salamanders,
Violet, in Andromeda's arms swim,
Channeling currents luster,
Astronomical night, slowly stirs-

Softly Dusted Obsidian Moths,
Within its Nebulae, hide,
Resting Moonstones, upon,
Bathed, Deep Blue light, -

Crinkled Magellanic Dragonfly's,
Perched, its Super Nova plumes,
Glimmering wings, transparent,
Within constellations, backlit-

Feathered Nightshade Doves,
Dancing a Griffins shadow,
Floating, its endless stars across,
Blurring Zenith Diamonds, below-

|

A quiet expanse, the Universe beyond,
An Amethyst Fern spirals, too solar wind sways,
As we do sleep-
|
Wandering Through Dreams, Celestial-

stones and stars speak alike, i guess, be them 'precious' or not, to humans. i also like how you used myth to capture a reality far more beautiful than it, the Great Beyond... awesome write

Gemstones both Small and Large (the stars). Cast across the void to clutter the night sky with wildly colorful imaginings. This left me with a large sigh upon reading; it just kept getting better. Something recent or maybe from another time of personal creativity? Cheers my friend! - Dan

Hey dude! Thanks for taking the time to comment upon my poem. Its somewhat recent, but related to years of meanderings and writing. I began writing my book off of a song that I wrote in my twenties. It was about falling stars that never reach the earth and how our wishes can sometimes be lost. The other side of the coin, is about sunspots. We began hot, vegetating out here on earth, the fuel burnt down, and we are going to end hot due to the flash burns of sunspots. Falling stars on stellar level is no joke. As well as any of the meaning in life, existentialism, philosophy, and associated dogma. I hope our civilization is able to reach Andromeda. I have my own thoughts, without destroying the universe, in all things creatively. Many, many, many, years I have personally given to thousands of hours of problem solving within this area. Infrastructure, Energy, World Hunger, Etc. So I hope that I answered your creativity question. Last but not least, its an honor to read your comments about how ;it just kept getting better. That meant a lot to me. Always a pleasure.
Brad-

P.S. I did the rounds in 2007 from Florida to D.C. regarding some of this stuff. M.I.T., Cape Canaveral, Quantico, Energy Reservation in N.C., Etc. I was unfortunately too naïve and inexperienced at the time though. I took a tour at N.A.S.A. and the bus took off at one stop, leaving me stranded by myself at the tour bleachers, near the launch pads, for 20 minutes. This was so, until the next tour bus came through. Just a humorous note!
