shimmer By: Chie Theresa Fujioka on 10/21/2001; 6:21 PM past when i first saw your grey eyes shining moonlight on my upturned countenance, blue velvets of night caressed my own, stars shimmered silently... soothing. All has grown and changed roses wilted with the maturity of the new. In a mirror of water pooled quietly at my feet, i see the faded figurines of our childhood melt back into the quicksilver recently fallen from the clouds slowly disappearing from about my eye. Seasons of summer pass, giving way to winter. feathery flakes bejewel your golden hair until it glows like burnished silver, with mine. frailty has joined us in our path of joy our spirits to burst from the decrepid encasement The emerald sheen of the grass we sat upon cracks and crumbles with decay, like us. Shadows grow longer, our hushed lips utter not of when we must go to separate homes, deep within the earth. The tree of life dies and Time's eternal fire cools
RE: shimmer By: Matthew Patterson, the Paranoid Minister on 8/25/2001; 12:04 AM Just thought I'd point out that this and "Carrying You" were published in the 2001 edition of the Troubador, our school's literary magazine. Exquisite, they are. And now to be constructive and originall... I actually like this one better than Carrying You. I think the imagery is stronger and it conveys more vivid mental pictures. (Although Odin forbid Yggdrasil, the World-Tree, die without having the Ragnarok first!)
