Visions of Mermaids

By Elexer Lyra

Water falls on my body

Like a cold iceberg. Lilly

Showers powder silk-like skin,

As the thrust of winter winds

Brush my hair with delicate

Grace. Plucking articulate 

Vocal cords.

"Dancing With Succulents" by Elexer Lyra

"Dancing With Succulents" 

By Elexer Lyra

Silent strokes

Of dancers

Feet,

Floating

Through air

With sweet

Longing.

For Summer’s,

Drying dreams

Of Gaia’s

Ice,

Melting,

In earth,

To meet

Lips quenched.

"Thoughts of Swimming" by Elexer Lyra

Thoughts of Swimming

By Elexer Lyra

Can you hold me close,

Like a jellyfish?

But not with

As much sting?

We are together,

But not everything.

You are my closest friend,

Who whispers thoughts of triumph-

Or false information.

  Can you be the parent 

Within my mind?

One, which says I can swim

and not drown?

"Wind Dancers" by Elexer

Wind Dancers

by Elexer

Dancing in the wind

Of crashing surf.

Pulling in the kind

to keep me sure

And safe

In this place

Of turbulent waters.

Grace your 

Face

Upon this soft

Salt air.

Keeping me there,

with you,

in this dance.

 

The Heavens' Gift By Elexer

The Heavens' Gift 

 By Elexer

Quiet pool

Of helium laughter

Sputters

At my dream

Of seemingly

Detached wisdom.

Merry meet

Are

The war

Songs

Of The Heavens'

Trumpet.

"Springtime Beauty" by Elexer

Springtime Beauty

By Elexer

You are beautiful

With hair of 

An orange cream

Sweet delight.

 Mother of Springtime,

Sugar, and Pollen,

You brush your scents

Along noses.

You say, "hello",

Breeze-filled touch

Of lemon and ginger. 

Bringing us knew hope-

Knew wonders- about

The world.

You are beautiful

With our without 

Your exterior.

"Suffocating Beauty" by Elexer

Suffocating Beauty

By Elexer

Glistening perfume-filled blankets

Of silk,

Glide amongst the cosmos-

Imitating the starlight

They wish they were.

Lips kiss the face of the moon,

Hoping for an atom of light

To be absorbed

Within themselves.

The moon breathes.

Intoxicating and violent, velvet fills

It's mouth of mountains.

The stars,

The only specks of light,

To guild oneself,

In the darkness.

Soft petals

Turn to suffocation.
