Glass Stamens

Glass Stamens 

Blossom into your inexpensive prodigy

budding out from our tarnished commodities 

while keeping petals with raindrops for eyelashes. 

Oh waterfall will you run through my veins?

Teardrops confess to the coruscating sunshine 

bleaching out their profitable properties

All along the silver cities… 

Fear what you will and what you might never understand

the flowers will still bloom along the edges of forest fires

fragile in their wits and fragile in their stamens. 

Oh waterfall will you grow fairy wings. 

To keep the purity incased in our rocky fissure 

alongside the minerals and gleaming pearls 

and in the comfort of sterile angels. 

Stay patient.

Stay pure. 

Blossom into my precious paragon 

planted in the most beryl coloured flower pot.

while keeping petals with raindrops for eyelashes.

Wow! The images were amazing!!! Great job! I love your use of vocabulary, the flow of the poem, the silence that fills the spaces to a more epic effect. This was really well written, way to go!
