Elusive Blues

Neville

Elusive Blues

 

Try as hard as he might

it would all be in vain

and never quite right

 

That most subtle of

blues would

always elude him

 

Yes, you know, those

that can only be found

in a certain light

 

Hiding beneath the

porcelain white

of her skin, within veins

          Evocative and fizzing with intimate moments of search and find. Who would not welcome the joy of discovering blues as elusive as these words portray - - great stuff again Nev..........x

            I'm not a painter... so I think I would have to get closer to make my own private observations in order to verify the delicacy of her beauty.....

            Got me going here, Nev.

              those blue flames of passion
              once we squander them
              so impossibly hard, to ignite it within another again
              but what to do
              some mistakes, try as we might, just can't avoid
              and although our loyalty may have failed us once
              we must still strive
              to find a path, to that Phoenix pulse of our love...
              (this is how your poetry, expressed itself to me my friend
              love the subtlety, a joy to read
              even if it brought back some unwanted memories)

                sometimes it feels like we share the same cerebral hemispheres ............................. cheers to both of us L.B 🙂

                  • dusk arising

                    Ah that delicacy which elevates female flesh to the desireable artistic heights of sculpture.... and then she moves.... rapture.

                    • Neville
