Purpureus Realm
Embraced by Purpurite Reveries
Every night at midnight
The purple clouds came out
To dance with the blushing sky
~~~~~
Beneath the periwinkle clouds
Dolphins flew majestically
Synchronised aerobatics
~~~~~
Marionettes being pulled
Though the lavender haze
Starfishes twirled skyward
~~~~~
Seahorses gravitised by the moon
Formed a vertical magenta chain
Hooking tails to snouts
~~~~~
Nymphs swirled up the chain
Raced to touch the moon
Left a glittery trail of lilac glow
~~~~~
The moon turned burgundy
Smiled and sparkled jubilantly
Sashayed emitting lightnings
~~~~~
Amethyst ripples on the surface
The sky dropped its diamonds
Waves celebrated the reunion

I saw a purple dawn just the other day, and it reminded me again of this piece, which will forever hold a place in my heart!
Floored and then overexcited that I found a non-horror something of yours that I hadn't read 🤩 Like I must have blinked way too long three years ago to miss this idyllic scene of a poem. What a stunning portrait of words!
Talk of whimsical. Brilliant.
Purple clouds and blushing skies. What a pretty imagery. I like dolphins, they are cute. But how you described them —makes them seem like a symbol of calm. Star fishes as marionettes 😍 Wow, the nymphs leaving a glittery trail of lilac glow. 😃 I don’t want this dream to end. I’ve got 6 lines left 😭 I like it when the moon sashays 💭 Now the waves are in celebration. What an amazing array of dreamy atmospheric lines, it held me outside the darkness that is within me, with every word. Outstanding! 👏🏽👌🏽🤗♥️
Magical 💕💕
Gorgeous poetry!
MAGIC

Beautifu, my friend. How did you know that purple's one of my fave colours?
So beautiful and colourful. It sounds like a wonderful dream!

This was brillant. I loved it! The imagery was so rich so gorgeous! Thank you!
You written so many amazing stories! This one was beautiful!
So introspective
I like the vivid imagery, and the gentle, fantastical tone of nature here. Really nice!
A wonderful and whimsical piece, my friend : )
It is enjoyable to read and your imagery is excellent.
Your imagery is still just as tantalizing as the first time I read this, I am constantly in awe of your talent!! You honestly should do a book of short stories or poetry or one of each! 💖
Your vivid imagery showcased by your incomparable descriptive language of this poem just shines through to breath-takingly! I love the whimsical feel of it and yet it has such a realistic feel as the images you painted dance in the forefront of my mind! Still as beautiful as I remember it being the first time!
The color imagery was so stunning
Your imagery is so beautiful and pulls the reader from one scene and verse to the next. Loved it!
Dear Dhar - You had me at "Purpureus" - put that into your translator and see what it comes up with? - *Miss you, are you taking a finger-stretching break from all of your type-tapping - Whew, who could blame you? J-Bud
Now how did I miss this piece. Beautifully written as always and I love a purple sky 💕💕
