chained in golden ligatures
each a nexus of prior reflections
in a prophets protective armor
priestly tales its secrets past
legends bear no time elapse
ghostly goddess pursues her call
shadowy victim of a wizard’s wall
thru folds of conjurored spells
her soul he doth keep
‘neath a desert tempest dune
where bedeviled dragons weep
Oceania spirit her fiery breed
daughter spawn from Neptune’s seed
She will not break, she will not bend
until the charmer makes amends
and humbles his heart before her throne
and honors the light that once was known
beneath the moons of EtidorhpA

Syndra Lynnalmost 20 years agoI don't understand all of it, but I love all of it! Thanks for the pretty words. I'll go read it again-
Angelinealmost 20 years agoThere's so much that's good about this poem--the rhythm works so well; the poem feels musical, the alliteration is great, and I just love the way you've carried the ocean imagery across the piece. Really nice!
Anonymousalmost 20 years agoYou create some nice images
and the lite alliteration lets the phrasing flow.
I enjoyed the read.
edit:
"prophets" should be possessive.
Is "conjurored" supposed to be "conjured"?
Merrymakeralmost 20 years agoWonderfully crafted....just love "where bedeviled dragons weep".
