A bridal gown
embellished with sparkling crystals
Its liquid train solidified
on cathedral steps
seven beautiful sisters - her bridesmaids
with silken ribbons
falling, cascading …..
Frozen in time beneath a starry sky
adorned with swirling drapes
Dancing, dancing …..
Ah, it's splendour … captures the soul
I'm Begining to shiver with the cold just thinking about being there! A beautiful description that puts the reader right there.
Great imagery and metaphors brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr felt I was there Thanks for sharing BB : O)
......my curiosity got the best of me...immediately I searched for photos....and was pleased to see the glacier creates beautiful scenery.....someday I would love to visit norway....enjoyed this beautiful tribute to a special place....
I do! Excellent descriptive poem. Now you have to do one on the groom.
Never read a poem about a glacier before. All is grist to the poet's mill though. Nice one Val.
Simply beautiful. I want to go there to see it for myself. I love reading your poetry!
The title has been a little intimidating and skipped the poem two three times, but later read the foot note and referred the Google! You have indeed captured the full beauty of this liquid train, solidified! !
