The similes and metaphor help create a calm, peaceful mood.
Fantasy
by Gwendolyn Bennett
Her voice is like clear water
That drips upon a stone
In forests far and silent
Where Quiet plays alone.
Her thoughts are like the lotus
Her kisses are the roses
The glow while dusk is deep
In Persian garden closes
Where Quiet falls asleep.
"Fantasy" by Gwendolyn Bennett
Abloom by sacred streams
Beneath the temple arches
Where Quiet sits and dreams.
