POETIC PEBBLES

Submitted by t. reflexion on Tue, 2011-10-11 17:58

Twinkle, twinkle the pin-ups shine
Like diamonds in glittering glories
Pebbles and sand, stars and sky
The outer reflecting the inner world
As above, so below, the cliché goes
An image in the mirror mimics
While the shadow follows suit
Molecular matter reduced to atoms
Broken composites of the indestructible
Electrons, neutrons and protons
Vibratory in natural spiritual state
A foundation of structural universe
Parchments in free and made-up forms
Like pebble and stars in comparison
The mind assigns it dimensions

Review Request (Intensity): 
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
Review Request (Direction): 
What did you think of my title?
How was my language use?
What did you think of the rhythm or pattern or pacing?
How does this theme appeal to you?
How was the beginning/ending of the poem?
Is the internal logic consistent?
Editing stage: 
Editing - rough draft

I like the title and the content. Very deep!

"As above, so below, the cliché goes"

not a cliche' at all. but an old Wiccan saying.

I see the poems posted on neopoet screen as pebbles, stars and valuables with their origins in the mind of man, "As above, so below". The use of the word cliche in this context is in noting that the term has been in use long ago and the origin is buried in antiquities. Best wishes
