Molten Or Metallic Marvels Poem by s.zaynab kamoonpury
Molten Or Metallic Marvels
I really truly don't know why
some things under the sun and sky
attract and catch my fancy
Quite queerly they happen to be
hot melting smelting solids
that melt into exquisite liquids.
Take for instance heated liquid gold
molten glass or molten brass
and to watch magma 'neath the earth's fold
Ooh I love just about any melting mass.
With similar bizarre ecstasy and fascination
do I always watch onscreen molten lava
Gliding in serpentine turns, oblivious of my admiration
Ah, I just love all that golden molten mass
Sometimes I even have such an eccentric craving
to watch just any solid beauty melting smelting
that I satisfy this craving by simply imagining
the honey to be some liquid fire gold
in a crystal clear jar and liken it to
a metallic gold syrup in the furnace burning
As if it were stagnant mini-lava
right before me glowing!
As for other mesmeric things
that I find real eye-catching
are those which everybody else finds ravishing.
And they are in all shine
dazzling diamond dust
Magical celestial stardust
Glittery terrestrial gold dust
in mankind's metallic materialistic lust.!
But I, I am allergic to dust. ;)
An obscure subject matter, however I like the very idea. A very good write, really enjoyed it.
A beautiful captivating read, I see your fascination comes in cleverly hear, there’s something about the natural power of the earth that is mesmerizing to watch. Your scintillating depictions are a marvel explored. Definitely worth a 10
I agree it really is unusual. But i like it. You took something very simple and you made it poetic
that was golden honey on smoldering words........ glad u don't like dust.....
a fascinating topic handled nicely; i hope you never get burned! i like the idea of imagining honey as a substitute for a molten material. i just have trouble understanding the line: And they are in all shine can you explain it please? thanks for sharing. bri
It is all about beauty and taking the time to soak it up, like an ice cream cone
