Luxurious Lotus



Luxurious Lotus

Luminous lotus awakens the universe
Life responds in white and pink verse,
The shy violet enters creation,
Luscious purple rises above its station

Violet nectar aids recuperation,
Amaranth leaves the invigoration,
Lavender is the gentleman’s friend;
Mignon flowers that have no end.

Supreme lotus unfolds its dazzling petals
The centre is its jewel. a radiant crown of metals
Up in the ether nival clouds mimic its pageantry
All of the earth’s flora and fauna marvel at its majesty.

Magical, mysterious lotus composes a sonnet;
A craftsman of excellence it makes a regal bonnet,
Maharajahs and monarch’s pursue memorizing perfume
The petals tend like a white peacock’s plume.

The finality of flower speech is the lotus langue
This masterpiece of mantra stamen for a tongue
Created by the solar system in constant flux;
The mystery is the lotus crux.

Veronica Juliet Toth

I was born the 8th day of May 1961 in Adelaide South Australia. My parents are Istvan Toth and Anna Johanna Eiken Toth. My father Istvan deceased 9th March 1995. My mother deceased on the 2nd of May 2017. I spent eight years in South Australia growing up watching the “space race”. I have had poetry published. My dear readers and audience my philosophy is that of Emmanuel Kant; one of Humanistic Psychology of Abrams and Maslow. which I studied in tertiary and University. I have a minor with distinction in English literature. The space of life today I believe is in fact “the global village” and like Alan Toffler’s “future shock” with the internet as an umbellicus. I thank all my editors, readers and audience for their patience with my poetical abstractions of life, love and aesthetics. God bless you for my career as a poet. more…
