tall, those trees of wisdom
who's swaying called her forth
heavy hung with fruit of life
and fallen, chance was caught
to hand the apple of her mind
a ripeness purely wrought
whilst gazing through a waterfall
to pen poetic thought
riding waves on turning tides
cadence ebbed onto her lips
nurtured longing, loves embrace
a murmur gently slips
now there upon her parchment
a harlequin of words
a rhapsody, enchantment
not spoken, never heard
as lush tongue touches palate hollow
in perfection now she mouths
to purr a silent consonant
count syllables allowed
then soulful bathed poetic eyes
each droplet poured imparts
the pulsing romantic mystery
of her gentle beating heart

- Comment from author about the poem: A while ago i said i would write a poem for a lady poet i had come to know. Her style, quite different to mine, bade me to compose in an unfamilar form which i found very enjoyable and have embraced. Rediscovering the incomplete piece today amid my pile of unfinished scrawlings I decide to publish here.

for the love of seriously good love poets everywhere, this is seriously seriously good... she obviously had an impact.... Neville
Wow thank you sir. This lady has it all. Never any romantic involvement between us but i'm truly appreciative of her art.
fair enough, sounds good to me....
Ones mindset has to completely change to think and pen this way. It urges one to read more than once to maybe understand the poets intent.
Superbly penned
Yes my mind was in a different place to my norm when penning this. I learned from writing in this way too. It didn't come easy and took a long time.... i'm not sure that the piece is as i would like to see it really but a re-write can wait.
Thank you for your kind comments.
This deserves loud applause - tenderly composed and a style to which your pen is suited my friend - - words to which my mind relates easily so the recipient will surely treasure.- - very well written D.A.
I am really pleased you relate to this piece. A bit out of my sphere although i have dallied there in the past. My vocabulary lets me down when trying this style and i have to take a couple of days break from composition to hopefully return with new eyes. Thank you very much indeed Fay.
Good write DA. Should I meet her?!heehee.
Yes you should meet her. You will find her on the fifth wednesday of each month gazing thru a waterfall adjacent to her profile. Don't be shy.
I join the applause - A super coming together of thoughts from skill with the language.
Thank you M.E. I think i am going to have to try this style again.
Superb write d a, showing what words can do when written in this way, Beautiful.
I blame it on my wine drinking days Goldfinch. I had to edit our all the slurred bit mind you.
Not got much time to respond after reading a few time..... Wow & wow again my friend. Masterfully penned
