Poems - In My Mind's Eye

In My Mind's Eye

by FuchsiaFestival!

In my mind's eye,
hills have celery skin,
emerald slopes
that old friends tread.
Sun bows before
their greeting feet,
rays patting their
backs as they speak.

Vows spark again:
days of drawing
rings in the soil,
mammal clouds.
Voices touch
cotton heights,
grass tails soaked
in lukewarm dew.

In my mind's eye,
love-struck words
are prisms drenched
in dragon wings.
A soft-spoken day
speaks a wise verse:
friendship is the song
welding the Earth.

What the eye sees the mind shapes, those two "friends" work very well together - this is imagery at top shelf level.... Very Happy

Sammi, this turned out beautifully! I see it clearly. I really like how you added a few moments of rhyme - it really pulls the whole thing together. And I'm still diggin' those celery hills!
