You are illuminated cranberry glass
the glow of a molten sunset
the iridescence of hummingbird wings
You are the dance of kite strings
the song of a mockingbird
the quintessence of possibility
You are all I long to be
the dreams of a millennium
the hope of eternity
You are innocence in a cradle
the wisdom of the elders
the infinity of the finite.
You are bubbles of laughter
the effervescence of everything
the reason.

A beautifully constructed poem. It begins with original vivid images and then reaches beyond “the horizon” of common utterance like pure poetry does.
Thank you!
