~*~ Elemental Journey ~*~ [ From Desire Within ]

 

 In a blink of a Third Eye,
on Pegasus wings~
in the company of Sunshine;
Light illuminates a path
through honeyed threads mixed
with emerald in between…
                                                   cotton candy seams stargazing
                                                   into celestial curtains
                                                   amidst a shower of stars…

as Four winds kiss
and lift ebony strands
to reveal beams of euphoria
from a chestnut canvas.

                            Temporary masks removed willingly,
                            Au naturel~
                            beyond ivy threshold
                            into open palms that wait,
                            alabaster strength
                            and Guardians of the Gates
                            at Machu Picchu.

Hear Elemental instruments strike chords,
thirty seven beats per minute
synchronized with luminescent waterfalls~
triolet under Lotus umbrellas,
spun by orb weavers
whilst petals dance
in The Ganges River to announce
Arrival…
                Monarchs overhead
                 make an arch…
                ~Welcome Sun and Moon~
                 as fluttering hummingbirds
                 offer sweet nectar to drink
                 from a Lataixis Mawae shell.

A lei encircled
from the freshest Gardenias,
Sunflowers and Wisterias
infuse the scent of Utopia~
cheek to cheek greeting…
[ Somewhere over the Rainbow ]
played ukulele style...
                                        while feet cradled  to sleep on Lily pads
                                        in translucent powder blue
                                        on olive blankets personalized...
                                                     with hues~
                                       of internal aurae Essence
                                       exhaled in breath~crystalized.

                                      Wind chimes make presence,
                                       whirlpool Kundalini energy rise~
                                       envision Atlantis
    
                                                                       its beauty unearthed and Touched
   
                                                                       below depths,  heightened rush
   
                                                                       inside the Taj Mahal.

                                       Turtledoves coo and call~
                                       Spirit by name 
                                       to cleanse mundane impurities
                                       alleviate all residue of pain.
                                       Vanilla wake …daydreams
                                       Lavender slumber …night sings.
                                       Experience Duality,  eclipsed…
                                                               
   
                                                                                                   off highest cliffs
   
                                                                                                   soar like eagles~
                       
                                           

Land on Sacred Groves~
U
nicorn chariot excursion,
charted by Deity…

                                     a diversion to Enlightenment,
                                     intertwined withTrinity~
                                    Journey to pick Sacred fruit from trees,
                                    Eden courtyard and wishing well~
                              Only Time …whispered into the breeze
                                     given pennies for Thoughts to toss…
                                                                                                                 May It Be

    Bows to sis

    As I read this beautiful poem another came to mind...'In Kubla Khan, did Xanadu, a stately pleasure dome decree...' (I do hope I remembered that correctly.) It's perfect in all ways. I felt the balance with the masters in mind...(even if a lot of them were opium freaks..lol).

    Gosh a lot of metaphors Smile

    I had to read a few times to soak it all in, 

    I kept missing bits and had to go back for more...

    a most beautiful elegant write and extremely captivating and I liked the layout, like floating down from branch to branch of a tree and I loved the music too...

    The turtle dove stanza will stay in my mind long after reading it, I just adored that stanza.

    Much love...

    The very first line had me hooked and my attention did not wander at all through the entire poem. This is, quite simply, a masterpiece! I love the font, it immediately made me think of an Egyptian-type setting, which is perfect for mystery. It is such a beautiful way to describe a journey, and the ending is amazing, I love the effect of the bold type. I have nothing but praise for both the poem itself and the author.

    Stay smiling and keep writing

    This was a cool poem. The title drew me in because I wrote a story with a similar title called "Sun and Moon: Night and Day".

    Mystical & Enchanting!

    This is really beautiful. I was captivated already by the second line on pegasus wings, I am a collector of Pegasus's. This is very well done. A mystical journey and the hidden powers revealed through the Kundilini energies...I so loved this piece!
