Pale to Luster


Paint me again, Lily.
Petal frail strokes
upon off-white canvas.

Feathery lime wisps,
pale from their rising --
to luster
at full height.

Grant me "Babylon"
once again --
to compel all souls in peering.
Seated anew to be king of lost worlds.

very interesting

I'm seeing a Manga-like image, dancing in a whispering hanging garden.  LOL, maybe not what you intended.

Midnitesun, at times I tend to write these little anthems to myself...you're not far from my motive. Thanks for reading.

Greeneyes, and Passing Shadows...thanks for taking a look.
