Halcyon Hums
written by: Smita Ray
@WideYonder
Arid chasms that transmute into whetstone
with diamond edges of the petals of water lilies,
hewn out of silvery shards along the ecliptic,
borne upon the plumpness of audacious cravings;
where affluent wisps of halcyon,
ovulate mighty pull of auspices
of the hum of indigenous hummingbirds,
dosing joyous splodges of their gaze
harboured in iridescent swirls of lore
dabbled in delish inflections of spirited longings.
