Mourgana of the Fey

torchlit love speaks

unbidden unhidden unwritten

I have always known you

beyond all that is human

 

your embroidered silhouette 

finger printed fingertips

Venusian vined

 

it is almost your birthday

I tiptoe out into this perimeter

vaguely remembering 

velocities of depth

 

liaisons untamed

as soft as a gentle subtle breeze spoke

I have always belonged here

 

yond mirrors and combs

two spears collide

vagabond troubadour

three times more

from his chest

 

night shade grew

in mantic dusk

we meet again

I delved into

his lapis lazuli

 

a dervish fire

waits for us

    So much hidden here. This indeed is a different world an inner world perhaps but with so much of this. Most lovely in its imagery and well developed, what appears disjointed is united here. The more one reads it the more meanings it takes on

    • Mourgana of the Fey

      Thank you Soren, indeed many details , my poems sometimes open as a pandoras box, and some I have written engage in endless emerging. Glad you enjoyed the read!

    • David Wakeling

      What a delightful poem.I love the word images and the cadence is musical.An enjoyable read

      • Mourgana of the Fey

        Thank you David, in many ways indeed this is a poem that is more about the melody interwoven we never know where the muses might take us do we...

        This is quite lyrical/musical and feels like a dance as one reads it. The imagery paints quite the scene. Well done on this, my friend! 🌹👏

        • Mourgana of the Fey

          Thank you Tristan, anything otherworldly gladly will dance though my poems, or at least in this one all is dancing, happy to know you enjoyed the read!

          • Tristan Robert Lange

            Indeed...and I love dancing. Which is why I love your poetry! Glad our paths have crossed, friend. You are most welcome! 🙏🖤

            • Mourgana of the Fey

              Likewise Tristan. Perhaps I was Isolde in a former life....Dancing is many things, among others Joy. May you have a lovely day full of twirling moments!

              • Tristan Robert Lange

                Indeed, my friend. Quite the joy it is. May you have the same! 🖤🙏
