Where did I leave the chalice All golden, gleams of ruby red It must be somewhere in the palace Standing at the floor beneath the bed I look for it and then I wonder What is it really I'm looking for? For in all truth I can’t remember From which book this page I tore The chalice must be somewhere near The chalice must be somewhere close But all I do is stand and fear That it is still beneath the rose Oh where did I leave my golden chalice Is it out there by the sky, Or is it still there by the window Watching the strangers walking by? My golden chalice, where did I leave you? Or is it me you left? Or are you here; is it true? Or has it been a theft? My golden chalice, unforgotten Misplaced somewhere around my life Are you in places so begotten? I'll never find you in all my strife? |
it's nice, but you might want to make all your lines even. your metaphore is great though| Posted on 2006-12-03 00:00:00 | by rocker5871 | [ Reply to This ] | I love the metaphore and the all the hidden meaning. I don't really have any suggestions, but I just thought I'd say it's really good and I'm definitely adding it to my favorites. | | Posted on 2006-12-01 00:00:00 | by Venia | [ Reply to This ] | Really quite excellent, dream-like and gorgeously fantastical...I really, really enjoyed it! (suggestion: if you were even up the lines, perhaps 8 or 10 syllables to the line, this poem would be immensely improved and soar --- in my humble opinion!) bravo ... Bravo ... bravo!!!

I'm sure there has to be an interpretation of this. Again, you strike me with the uniqueness of ideas and fabulous imagery that forsake the paths of your mind to share a gift with a reader. I can't help it but to be left stunned. | | Posted on 2006-12-01 00:00:00 | by Porcelaine | [ Reply to This ] | |
