Her dark pupils
were surrounded
by a raging silver flame
swallowed by a wave
of cerulean blue
It was as if each shade
swirled into one whirlpool
of exquisite beauty;
The soft petals
of a field of cornflowers,
The electric flash
of lightning during a storm,
The sparkling surface
of a star-stained river
rushing to join the sea
—
A sea that made it difficult to stay above the waves

Her dark pupils
were surrounded
by a raging silver flame
swallowed by a wave
of cerulean blue
It was as if each shade
swirled into one whirlpool
of exquisite beauty;
The soft petals
of a field of cornflowers,
The electric flash
of lightning during a storm,
The sparkling surface
of a star-stained river
rushing to join the sea
—
A sea that made it difficult to stay above the waves
