Seraphic Embers

I've always wandered in venus' orbs, searching for the star-seed of my spirit that has forsaken it spiritual sanguinary and caged every fluorescent flicker in a sculptured sanctuary of materialistic metamorphosis. Wondering - what am I, in the camouflaging shades of conscience which streak abstract hues of ambiguity. Are we mere seraphims of flesh and bones? Or, are we just polished pawns of pirouetting lies? What are we, If not a twisted repercussion of our maple musings, amongst amber desires that burn in an eternal flame? Don't we coruscate somewhere above magenta bubbles of dawns and dusks, that float upon creamy eyelids of earth - embraced in the chic arms of honeycomb sun. I believe, I'm a champagne breeze, fluttering in citrine shine, like the fall of last bronze leaf, floating on chiffon sheath of sakura lake and striving to fight off the silence that surges within those stormy swirls of glacial ripples, like a swordless samurai. I've been aching to shred every toxic sepal that poisoned each lush petal of newborn buds, who used to fruition from crystal cotyledons. Their thoughts were tinted with fickle thistles, ebbing upon decaying beliefs, shattering in streams of saturnine wails. I am, but a mosaic of Mona Lisa, not carved by any nectar of gold-acrylics, by flawless fingers, of a philosophical artist, but blended in abstract terracotta textures of silverine soul chakras. Our mantra is like those roseate rivulets within aqua amulets, who keep gushing against tawny tapestries, glowing with passion and desiring to reach towards those orchestrating oceans. So, when the strawberry scents of sandstone tulips have rotten and my apricot angst smears burnt orange wildfires across pear orchards, where canaries chirp in mellow melodies of sorrow, I'll hold life's butterflies close to my crescent-cores, forever remembering ~ "I'm a butterscotch sunflower, yearning to rise like pink-quartz-ash, in salty sunglow of summery sonata, when ochre drops entwine and twirl, with my scorched lifeline..." "Who am I, if every evanescent end and beginnings of a million yesteryears breathe in me?" ~ We're the 'coeur de lumière précieuse', - a magick that never fades, ~ as our inner child, still smiles...

This urges the reader to do some serious inner soul searching. Just who and what am I? Why am I here? How did I come about? The Bible tells us we are here for one purpose. We are here to give honor and glory to God. That is the whole reason for Man. God wanted something to love and care for and something that would love Him back. That is why we have a free will. We are free to love Him or not love Him. H wants us to love Him of our own free will. Beautifully penned. God Bless, JB

Not easy to ponder the profound theme of the contest--but, you have delivered its essence brilliantly, Hiya.--Wondering -what am I, in the camouflaging shades of conscience which streak abstract hues of ambiguity. --I believe, I'm a champagne breeze, fluttering in citrine shine, like the fall of last bronze leaf, floating on chiffon sheath--- WOW! Such elegance to your ornate diction!

A journey to find, discover, and describe self. What a fantastic one that paints itself on the uncertainty of the backdrop we call ordinary life.

Ah how beautiful is this poetic confession, i felt like i was reading my own thoughts as i read this very well crafted poem that depicts inner conflicts and turbulences of mind and soul as the world can be full of pirouetting lies that can strangle every aching breath left in ones bones. I love the alliterations and wordplay and descriptive diction. Especially “ roseate rivulets within aqua amulets, “ “ summery sonata, “ tawny tapestries, “ apricot angst“ we both wrote pretty similar! BOL

as a "butterscotch sunflower" yearning to rise in the "salty sunglow of summery sonata." The use of vibrant and sensory language, such as "ochre drops" and "scorched lifeline," reinforces the theme of renewal and resilience... The closing lines bring a sense of timeless magic and the eternal nature of the self, beautifully encapsulated in the phrase "coeur de lumière précieuse" - the heart of precious light, a magick that never fades...
