Silver Nights

by LadyPearl   Jun 21, 2006


Stunning silver moonbeams glow
Reflections from the lake below
Swaying gently in azure waves
Beautiful dreams it's shadow gave

Drops of silver trace silent trees
Unfolding strange, mystic seas
Tales of mermaids unfold slowly
Revealing where lies the silver key

Gleaming white snakes slither about
Fading under soft mercury ground
Mirror beauty of the swirling night
Luring life to the glimmering light

Silver nights of mysterious ways
Where grayish clouds drift everyday
Dreams of a mysterious metallic kiss
Silver nights no one can miss

    I know 'silver' is your title and a major theme as far as the imagery goes, but is there any way to get around using the word so much? I felt like it was used in so many places (and if different parts of the sentences) and that took away from some of the imagery. 'Mercury' is a cool word that evokes a silver image, mirrors are silver... um... steel is silver... yeah I dunno. I'd still give it a shot.

    "Revealing where lie the silver key"
    'lies' not 'lie'

    I really liked the rhyming and the descriptive language you used throughout the poem. My only critique was listed above.
