Sterling flower
With petals bright
Dances round
In the dark moonlight

Floating and twirling
Graceful and grand
Above towering mountains
Across every land

Sterling flower
With petals shining
Giving to the new age
Hope unbinding

Pulsing as it changes
From sterling to scarlet
As it mourns the fallen
And all those dead

The scarlet strips away
To the heart-full of black
And disappears in silence
To that which it came

The river ever flowing
Through fire and water
Darkness and despair
To the shining beacon
Of an empty space

OK, I couldn't really figure out where this poem was best suited, so simply placed it under 'general poetry'. Anyone have a sugesstion as to where it would be better suited?

this is so beautiful, so flowing, and imaginative.

If something super-natural takes place, then it's rather very natural.

Thank you so much. ^^

I really enjoy this poem, and I think it could probably go under nature somewhere.

Thanks! ^^

Hmm, I suppose under nature could work, regardless of whether it's a fictional or factual plant or item of nature.
