Radiant Tickles

by N J Thornton   Feb 24, 2007


Silver patterns
on supple arms,
test frosted water
- timid.

Hands part - to bare
healing carnelian.

And jewels melt
as radiant tickles
stroke the bud
to wake.

    I loved the beaty that nature poems seem to hold in them. You did a great job on this one, the imagery was wonderful.This is a beatiful poem with a great flow. It was quite short yet it came togerther quite easily. I was engaged from the first line as i wanted to know what you were talkling about. I wish it was longer htough, yet i know you ended it with the bud opening. But i dont know something engaged me and i wanna read more of it... Lol maybe im just weird. Anyways an excellent poem again! xx

    Excellent imagery! In fact, one of the most eloquent uses of imagery I've seen in awhile. Alas, I seem to always try to relate imagery into a concept, use it to sharpen the point I am trying to convey. I have never tried to just describe a event of nature. Unless I am missing something I assume that is what you are doing. Good job!

    I'm not sure but, I took this as the melting of snow maybe and the ending of winter. Spring begining, "a bud to wake" flower bud begining to bloom. Whatever the meaning you had on your mind when you wrote, it's a beuatiful poem. 5/5
