BEAUTY - SKIN DEEP


Braided emotions sew
A cosy nest of maternal warmth
Life cuddles in bliss
A blessing for the womb.

Enticed eyes sip
Passions from lovers breathe
Shies away from touch
Detouring not from fragrant embrace
Of love blooming in silence.

Annealed bond fostered in vows
Waddling through a meandering humdrum
Senses pain wrapped in sensitivities
Offers solace in cocooned comfort of a smile.

Unparalleled hope
Propelling the spirit of life
Rise above conflagrating mayhem
Ruffle the pages of destiny
Beckon to gather and walk again.

Toddling laughter
Pours a caricature of thoughts
Random titbits learnt and imbibed
Displaying traits from a familiar gene pool
Pride shines in parenting happiness.

Yodelling notes of life
Envelopes substance in minute forms
Congregating memories from the first second
Of becoming to be
Painting the canvas, to live and reflect
Long beyond the calling of the grave.
 

Poetics: Beauty Is Everywhere. at the dVerse lounge where Fred has us exploring beauty. I am little taken over by experimenting with acrostics in my own way.

  4. Brian spoke my thoughts. I linked it all with maternity, finally, after reading a few times, trying to understand what drew me so totally into this impressionistic poem. Maternity, feelings from womb and back, painting the canvas that will live beyond. Magnetic!

  9. Acrostics are fun and I like how you've used it at the beginning of each stanza. The last stanza is my favorite.
