She sits upon Her Throne – in flower-petals drowned
With nectar of pure Bliss – imbibing words of Grace
All-One, yet not alone – with Joy’s glow She is crowned
Bestowing Wisdom’s kiss – She swallows Time and Space
***
She swallows Time and Space – Bestowing Wisdom’s kiss
With Joy’s glow She is crowned – All-One, yet not alone
Imbibing words of Grace – with nectar of pure Bliss
In flower-petals drowned – She sits upon Her Throne

Intricate and lovely
The mirrored half-lines are an innovation to this form, and you have done it very gracefully. Your subject is also inspiring. A lovely poem. Good luck!
