I love this archaic throwback! I find etymology so interesting and I love the way you incorporated the language into the poem! βœ¨πŸ’–

Where Went Love ?
spilleronsheet said:

Intense we’re the emotions
The love was so deep
Deeper than an ocean
And darker than the nights painting the night sky
In those nights
The lovers lost
Departed though across
β€œWhere went love β€œ told a hypnotic tale with melancholy shades
Very emotive write my dear friend

Where Went Love ?
L. B. Mek said:

\'Where the excitement of friendly larks,
racing to get first in the ocean
when stripped to try skinny-dips, oh
and those *sloppy wet kisses
we shared while dusk fell to dark.\'
Brilliant!
(ah, dear Fay
your brushstroke wording, paint such vivid scenes)
bitterness of melancholy, inked sincere sweet

For Thine
spilleronsheet said:

A very emotional write dear Fay
The yearnings and longings
The desire to see the lover
Distances seems years
And years a lifetime
Very beautiful dear Fay

Rozina said:

I love reading this poem with the archaic wording. I imagine the knight and the lady in the clothing of that time. So beautiful.

For Thine
L. B. Mek said:

reminds me of Keats\' letter to Fanny
where he asks for a note just saying goodnight
to keep by his pillow a night, reimagined wonderfully
in the film \'Bright Star\'
(lead actors brilliantly casted, \'in my humble opinion\'..
thank you, dear Fay
(truly gorgeous Poetry, what a treat
share it again, as often as you wish)

Learning to Lean
Goldfinch60 said:

I have seen may trees like this when Joyce and I used to walk among the Yorkshire Dales and it shows how strong Nature can be and that strength needs to be in us as well. Wonderful words Fay.

Learning to Lean
Rozina said:

I read about the very strong winds and the dangers they bring. The flexible thin trunks bent by the winds compared to \'stronger\' bigger trunks which can be broken teach us a lesson. I enjoyed your poem.

Doggerel Dave said:

Thanks for the poem, Fay. Very appropriate timing for what, if reports are to be believed, is a pretty rough time for many in the UK and Europe. Not used to it are you? Take care and stay safe, please.

Dove kind of took the words write out of my mouth .. metaphorically speaking that is ... quite brilliant Fay .. x

Dove said:

Excellent metaphor.. Although here some old giants manage to fall over and break with heavy winds...

Love\'s Dues

A duet
A duel
Writing a song
Or dwelling upon on swords
Love makes the most sane, insane above all
So well penned dear Fay

Love\'s Dues
L. B. Mek said:

\'but when shadows cast images
sight could be abused.

Doubt born of judgement frowns in refusal\'..
(some truly profound insights in these lines,
I couldn\'t help but connect your words
\'admittedly, in a roundabout way\'
to the theme of my post today)
thanks for reposting, dear Fay
another memorable poem
(Happy Valentine\'s day, dear Poet
\'even if only
in remembrance and dreams
if we have a valentine to call upon
that to, is a blessing
we should be thankful for) 🌹🌹🌹
