Tiny princesses of delicacy Seeking sweetness 'tween sunlight O, to sip from flow'rs like jasmine tea Bathed in invisibility's fair delight! Seeking sweetness 'tween sunlight So blurred 'gainst the paling sky Bathed in invisibility's fair delight Fearing twilight, they flit and fly So blurred 'gainst the paling sky Tragic hummingbirds thirsting for relief Fearing twilight, they flit and fly Whilst sentiment wets their throats with grief Tragic hummingbirds thirsting for relief O, to sip from flow'rs like jasmine tea Whilst sentiment wets their throats with grief Tiny princesses of delicacy For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch, |

Tragic hummingbirds thirsting for relief O, to sip from flow'rs like jasmine tea Whilst sentiment wets their throats with grief Tiny princesses of delicacy So very nicely penned........ |

This is a very enjoyable poem. Thanks for sharing here with us. Sometimes we have to follow a stronger voice, even if it's silent. |
