When April kissed in hues of mist
Cinderella dream to linger,
wove golden ropes~~Rapunzel's hopes
slipped not through princely fingers.

In the dream where joy arrives
in mystic moonglow's flower,
enchantment blooms, pure seed
surprise entrances April's bower.

Now November draws her tears
close within cold tatters
of fairytales and dreams to spin
till frozen crystal shatters ~

Captive slivers, morning stars
to shoot upon the mountain,
pour petals, bursting blush again,
lovesongs for April's fountain.

~~~~~~~~~~~~


Inspired by a poet I know as Kaibab

K, this enchanting poem is literally "bursting" with mystical imagery!

A veritable feast for the senses and the imagination!

Oh what a very beautiful piece! Even the title was so well constructed, something about it made me want to read it!

Truly lovely.

This is beautiful.
The rhyming is so effortless and unforced in this.
A wonderful flow to it.
thank you also for your comment on my poem.
I would like to her you recite your poem aloud as well.
Does klassy lassy have a mic? =)

Joe,

No mic...and I'm not at all sure I could pull off a recording of a rhyming poem.  Inflection is tricky in avoiding sing-song.  Thank you for such a gentle critique.  I like doing rhyme.  

I'd love to be better at free verse, but rhyme is often intrinsic.

Your response warms my heart.  These two poems were inspired by some fabulous writing that sometimes leaves me speechless.  

But I've read some of your work, too, and loved it as well.  Thank you.  

Hugs,
Karen

I have never heard of Kaibab, but if this is what happens when you read him, please don't stop!
