the love poet

dusk arising

 

 

 


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

    I love it when you let loose!

    • dusk arising

      LOL @ 'let loose'. This took a long time to write because it's in a quite different style to my usual scribblings. I tried to copy the style of the lady poet who it is about. Thank you jarcher54.

      Beautifully written. I especially love "a harlequin of words a rhapsody, enchantment not spoken", what lovely symbolism.

      • dusk arising

        I was trying to emulate the type of metaphor used by the lady it is written about in her poetry. Thank you Bella.
