Hallowed

beauty sanctified
serenity secular
extremes of opposites…

enshrouded within a sacred
journey of disenchantment -
a hopelessness disregarded

impounded within a pained
vision of incapacitation –
a longing unobserved

draped within a tombed 
robe of enthroned beauty –
a crypt of pain

relinquished within a silent
affliction of nature’s serenity –
a sacrifice of love

beauty secular
serenity sanctified
extremes of desecration…

    Your poem ponders elements ...

    which in totality make a whole. YET: the words speak of paradoxes of the human condition; of femininity in disregard. It speaks of the silent suffering of millions of women, offering that which is sacred for some

    tombed
    robe of enthroned beauty –
    a crypt of pain


    It is a poem of outcry on behalf of those who are often silenced by social ignorance and sanctions.

    You have interpreted the visual prompt well.

    Good luck in the contest, Poet.

      Go to: pic inspired by serenity silvermoon and take a look at the picture. I think because I am a non-paying member that I cannot download pictures. Thank you for your comment.
