Unusual Words

I was challenged to write a poem
with words rarely used, that rhyme.
Had about 15 minutes,hardly makes
sense,but I had fun. ( I tried;-)

 

In glistening shades of Aquamarine
Reveling in newfound knowledge
Skipping o'er dreams on  mescaline
Awakening in my bed on the edge
A shimmering shadow in sateen
Never to be left on a ledge
Defying the mood of saturnine
Making  myself a solemn pledge
With a smile to charm a wolverine
I slid like a snake my bets to hedge
On the way to devour haute cuisine
I say adieu, no misdeeds to allege

... Lewis Carroll would understand this perfectly, Eileen, as would Jim Morrison and The Doors; the Fall and Rise of Alice as she negotiates the Mad Hatter's Teaparty, and the Caterpillar's magic mushroom come to mind! 15 mins is enough for a whole Wonderland to evolve, after all! :)) This is an anodyne outpouring and most certainly not asinine! xx

The painting would be totally rad! ...glistening shades of Aquamarine...
with a shimmering shadow in sateen...yet, showing the face of contemplation... with a tad of gloom for desire...for addictions...it broods over its weaknesses, with only some parts wanting to overcome them...Yeah,
"...the making of a promise", so, the eyes are closed,
but that smile... that smile, that initiates from the coils of a snake, that twists the soul, and goes back for more...opened jaw to strike, injecting the venom to swallow another meal

...speaking French no less! :)
Outstanding job Eileen!
I love "Unusual Words" in more words than one!
Love and Peace~
