Fountain

Missing image
A fountain sprung
from sacred Eye:
where white doves drink
the clear blue sky;

where antique silk
sculpts fragrant rose;
sight's silver Star
in softness glows.

In ring that slips
in golden wrung,
freshwater pearls --
light's luster -- strung.

From sacred Eye
a fountain sprung:
it murmurs memories'
new sigh.

Author notes

    Beauty in a Bracelet!

    "where antique silk

    sight's silver Star

    This stanza is PURE PERFECTION. Wonderful.

    I love how you centered your list of charms around your chosen charm. Very cleverly done and quite creative. I loved this entry. Well done. ~Pamela

      Hmm. I may not have been too clear then in my instructions. Everyone who enters selected 5 charms they would place on a charm bracelet.

      Then, each contestent goes to the other contestents lists and selects a charm they would like to write about.

      Title of each poem will be a charm. No two charms can be selected.

      Once complete, there should be a "virtual charm bracelet" of poems.

      I hope that clarifies for you. AND anyone else who may be confused. ~Pamela
