Dear ribbons of waterflame,                        gold, green and blue                 swathes itself around my palms,                                                             becoming             a ball of radiant waters that floats in           cupped hands and at the thought of       love, it buds and curls like a lily's petal        and              the years of hushed times                   eat at my very soul, nulling                       deafening me to the music                              of the mint-dark sky,                                 of the flame-thorn sun                           of the bone-white stars                  My feet are kissed by the             star-studded shores, washing,        relieving the   fragments of my shattered past I keep the shell of my hope   shielded       in my ***** near the heart         My eyes dancing zultanites            With my gaze on the horizon                    rise the clouds of trouble                     How long will I plan to thrive                   when I am but a shrinking violet             cold, iced with scorn           but        I am the Mistress of Waterflame     Daughter of the Mers and   Scion of the Dragon Line      So blood will bend and billow          like flowers             So fits the one of the skies and sea              An expert who delivers in         the trade of     death But the hope in my ***** pulses       As my bloodlust evulses                 As I dream of the warmth that will soothe my weary

This poem is basically a continuation of my old poem 'Drift' 'Whispers' speaks to me. It's a statement, a proud affirmation that I'm not ashamed to have my head in the clouds. For the world is too harsh... © Whispers by Lyn-Purcell Be back soon Lyn x
