Crown Jewels Award

Celtic Castle Designs

Shrouded Echoes,

A midnight luminescence veils the sea,
it twinkles, bobbing in reflective rays.
Celestial constellations in ballet
as diamonds pas de duex in blackened tea.

The moonlight skims across the crested waves...
a phosphorescent glow of rippling foam,
beneath the creatures effortlessly roam
uncounted depths of salty water graves.

Now through a liquid skyline sunrays peek,
the sea’s so calm, with not a wave in sight.
As wispy clouds disperse in wingless flight
the day is new with glory that will speak.

Aside a piece of driftwood floats on by,
a gull was perched there, hesitant to fly.

Hi Larry!  :knight:

This is absolutely stunning (as I've mentioned previously)!  :lovie:

I have so many favorite images, it's hard to choose just one!  :wall:

If I mus, it would be:
Celestial constellations in ballet
as diamonds pas de duex in blackened tea.


What a great imagination!

Glad you've put one this in the Polished works place to stay!  :wizard:

Hey Zeus,

This was a pleasure to read for some of the descriptive/adventurous language. It flows beautifully and the images are quite haunting...the big deep. An excellent effort  :dance:  :grinning:

Ah, Zeus,

You have me swooning with your mastery of the romantic!  What a way with words, you silvered tongued-devil, you!  You have me bewitched, entranced.  Too bad I'm married!  Hey, if you could sweep me away to this place, I may conveniently forget that little factoid ('specially since my wedding ring is broken!!!)

LOVE YOU, Bud!

Hello Larry~

This is an absolutely sparkling piece bringing me into a wonderful and ethereal state of mind! sun.gif  sun.gif

The moonlight skims across the crested waves...

beneath the creatures effortlessly roam
uncounted depths of salty water graves


Superb write! lovie.gif  lovie.gif

Hi Larry,

I'm delighted that you have an award for this piece - both for yourself and for me - because it has brought it to my attention - I hadn't seen it before.

Very well done and very well written.
