Click hereAs diaphanous silk drifts in the breeze
I catch a movement in the corner of my eye
And your scent sets my soul at ease
I send prayers into the evening sky
Over my blossoming garden's bloom
I catch a movement in the corner of my eye.
The ghosts of daydreams haunt my room
Wishes fall like the evening dew
Over my blossoming garden's bloom.
Moonbeams carry my whispers to you
Kept fresh and bright in sparkling starlight
Wishes fall like the evening dew.
I know you're with me in the night
Your presence is warm in my heart
Kept fresh and bright in sparkling starlight.
My wishes have come true right from the start.
As diaphanous silk drifts in the breeze
Your presence is warm in my heart
And your scent sets my soul at ease.

I agree the structure is elegant. And no matter which form you choose for your poetry, the structure always rests easy, never interfering with the flow of your words.
Your imagery is beautiful and compelling...
Lovely work carrie

A finely written exercise in an exacting form.
Kudos for the smoothness of the effort.
Now is only silk would tire of being "diaphanous".
A recommended read for poets interested in structured form.
