Bards-Domain Adventure #4

Title Challenge: Strange Desires

---

1) Expressed Identity Metaphors-(These are metaphors that assert an identity between two nouns.) List six nouns off the top of your head. Now put them together randomly in three pairs.

I decided to see if I could use them all, nonsensical or no.

butterfly
mist
leaf
chime
flame
raindrop

butterfly is a leaf
the leaf of butterfly
butterfly's leaf

raindrop is a chime
the chime of raindrop
raindrop's chime

flame is a mist
the mist of flame
flame's mist

~~**~~

the sweetly scented chime of raindrops
hisses softly against the butterfly's leaf
fluttering wings flicker
stained glass in motion
the mist of flame before the eye

the raindrop's chime
snarls defiance at the candle's gate
the flame is a mist, rising
to lick with hungry tongue
at fragile wings
but the butterfly
is naught but a leaf

the leaf of a butterfly
sways gently in the breeze
twisting on a melody
the raindrops are a chime
crystalline song
that slips within
the flame's mist
