Delirious Mists…..0609-2k11

Rating: 2.3


A pagoda reflects accusing fingers at the sea.
As the rafted deck snakes out far to be.

A distant castle floats in the delirious mist.
On placid waters with a twinkle in its midst.

The sea breeze clings and dreamily sings.
The age old song that nature often strings

Flutter of her shroud dallies with the form.
The calm of the sea belies the hidden storm.

The smitten heart and the dancing waves.
Wilds own beauty adds to envisioned raves.

What a nice poem it is, fantastic on a marvelous theme running like a horse in the race a bird is flying in the sky motionless…..the word is the music in the years and the fine tune Created in the poem…which makes the poem a master piece.

It has so powerful visual imagery and stunning metaphors that we see a castle floating in mists.'clings' and 'sings' are rhymes within a line, composed in a masterly way

Absolutely impeccable....this was so gorgeous it seemed more than language and poetry...it was a sea breeze with wooden fingers cutting the azure waves...and I saw (I realise I sound potty) but I saw a castle seeping through the mist...bravo...
