Filigree


I put my hand into the water
To touch the dream there
Shining on the surface
Beckoning
Glowing in the sunlight
Radiant and beautiful
A world of happiness
A cloud full of love
A promise, dream and legend
Misty and star filled
Its delicate filigree
Fell apart at my touch
Ripples rushed my dream away from me
Its very heart was broken
Torn from my grasp
So I returned to my life
Grateful for its solidity
And more awakened to its charms

This is my very first AP comp entry and I'm quite shy, so how am I doing?

    The wonderful images you create here

    are as solid as real life and so much more beautiful. The filigree of your dreams, and their fantastic intricacy, comes through clearly.

    Well done.

      Hi urapns66
      Thanks for the lovely comments. It's a real confidence boost as this is my first outing and I'm a bit shy about my poetry. Thank you.

      Hi Zatil
      Thank you for your lovely comments. I wish I knew how to change the font colour though, as it's very hard to see on the dark background! Where is your poetry so I can read it? Thanks again
