"And your very flesh shall be a great poem..."

~ Walt Whitman

 

 

We form a villanelle

Two rhymes, in you I dwell…

Alliteration on my lips…

 

Creating liquid lines

Dripping meter in rich designs

Poetic honey sensuality…

 

Your Haiku hands

A 5-7-5 rhythm we understand

Couplets of pressing forms…

 

A stanza in your arms

Laughing in your limerick charms

Quatrain nights of bliss…

 

Read no lyric sweeter

Dancing in iambic-pentameter

Free verse over me…

 

My fingers reach

For your sonnet skin of peach

Your lullaby-lyric lips…

 

My words a rune

Uttered in a prose blue moon

An epic to your beauty…

 

And in your eyes

I listen for unwritten sighs

You are my poetry…

A imagination that own liquids words.. wow
You are one intriguing writer.. to me
Pressing forms that turn your words into verses
and leaves me breathless..silence
I hear a music that never in my life have heard..
Could this by the music of an angel that came
down here .. and turn poetry into magic
This is precious.. so precious to me

I absolutely love the thought of a lover's rhythms and verses being set to living poetic form. What a stunningly beautiful image, and what a lucky lass. What a rare treat it is to find the one who brings out our own innner poetry.

amazingly crafted piece, with the free flowing verses sailing like little ducks in a quaint, tranquil pond in summer...as passionate as young lovers, yet as harmonious as an orchestra!

your creativity is shockingly good. to be able to take words and make them work in the structure of the poem is hard on its own but u managed to master it, and being able to keep it rhyming is even more amazing. great job.
