Magpie tales Poetry Prompt

Here is a Shadorma I have written for the Magpie Tales poetry prompt. You can find others like it here http://magpietales.blogspot.com/ 

Emerald Suns.

Your eyes shine
Like emerald suns
Gracefully
Bursting through
My perpetually dark
Atmosphere of me.

    Thats really beautiful. I love it. "Bursting through" Each line makes my heart smile. :)

    That's because each line was written by a smiling heart. Smiling hearts seem to have an easy time communing with each other.

    Nice shadorma. The last two lines are particularly strong.

    I wish I could construct poetry like this. But having said "My . ." in the second last line, isn't " . . . of me" in the last line a tautology?

    Thank you all! :) Lucy, think of it this way, its "my" perpetually dark atmosphere because I possess it, but it is an atmosphere that is made up of my own self. So it is an atmosphere made up "of me" that I myself possess.
