Quintessence

I breathe you like

 fire and flowers

your sweet and burning essentia

you flow through me resolute

whilst my frenzied

 peak pulsates

your body eases into my being

it settles in

 crystal pools of clarity

seen through

 smoky salted tears

swells the

 unspoken tenderness 

you lavish me with abundances

bursts a 

symphony of exhalations

sun and moon

 rise simultaneous

lulled into effete

 paroxysm's embrace

I exhale the essence of your crest

This is my kind of piece, it has jazz and sweetness, and I like how it hangs on the page!

I breathe you like fire and flowers
your sweet and burning essentia
you flow through me resolute

swells the unspoken tenderness
you lavish me with abundances

Thanks a friend of mine sent me that artwork with the exhale of flowers and smoke, asked me to write something for it, this was the result....

Magnificent - another great poem my friend, Frieda

To breathe in one like fire and flowers is like rolling on an ocean wave through a desert canyon. The calm is there, the intensity is unfettered, the crest spills over.....lovely!

Welcome Frieda, you are very talented. :)

i believe that, true love means the desire for each of the two to melt in the other like butter in oven. if that doesnt happen, it is not called love. it can be called feelings of attachment or whatever. each of the two must feel they are captured by the other, taken by them, melting in them and making them melt..

your sweet poem strengthens my belief..

[Frieda P]

ha you're upstaging my poem here, 'two melt in the other like butter in oven' sounds steamy! Thanks khalid

[khalid]

my pleasure..
