[Exposing] Love

'translation in the code of love' ~A collaboration~ Jack & Frieda

Moon glow confetti and tea leaf decisions

Skywriting written in ginger stardust

Creamsicle cosmos a' swirl of affection

Burnished songbirds sing in the key of destiny

   Low hanging fruit drips of endless day nectar

   Drizzling sweet messages of serendipity

   Drenching your lips, your taste effervescent    

   Lingering on a relish'd brink of aromatic happenstance

 

      Longing grips this heart in desired definitions

      Words defined in Braille still undecipherable

      Blinded by your essence, my fingers search the meaning 

      Kismet speaks the language of secrets little known or (unexposed)

 

      In a whispered voice that only love could translate

The language of love is both beautiful and powerful. You two have interwoven your voices in perfect harmony in this piece and your imagery is sumptuous:

Moon glow confetti and tea leaf decisions
Skywriting written in ginger stardust
Creamsicle cosmos a' swirl of affection
Burnished songbirds sing in the key of destiny

Low hanging fruit drips of endless day nectar
Drizzling sweet messages of serendipity
Drenching your lips, your taste effervescent
Lingering on a relish'd brink of aromatic happenstance

hi guys, great job!

writing a poem in collaboration is like playing remote-chess? because to create such an intensive and harmonious poem i picture both of you must have been in a semi-dark room with a lit candle, rose fragrance around, quiet background music and campaign-tasting kisses for hours.

:o)

[Frieda P]

Ha what a delightful scene OZ, will keep that in mind for next time, thanks so much, much appreciate your thoughts here.

[Jack...]

Thanks so very much my friend. Liking the campaign-tasting kisses for hours. Now that I know the correct way to do one of these, I'm ready for another. :)

[Tom]

Love manifests and appears in many different forms, but its power is universally omnipotent and all encompassing !

A collaboration that even Eros and Venus combined would find hard to better !

[Frieda P]

Woo, I could dance to your review Tom, thanks muchly........!

[Tom]

Rumba, cha-cha or tango Frieda ?

[Frieda P]

Ha tango, always a tango................

[Tom]

You have taste lady !

[Frieda P]

Of course I do, you're my sweet friend. :-)

I can feel the power of love which overpowers everything, If it is about the code of love, I am afraid it is not the key. love can change everything, can trabslate every language, wheather rude, upset, acrid, acerbic, foolish, warmth, kind....but still there are things love will numb its senses, and bang its doors. and close its windows shut in prescence of them. like Reality, humanity, mind.....Love terrors and appals these, fear to beat them and cann't endure them. all in aal it was a great, but the theme was delivered bad. thank you.

[Frieda P]

Thanks for your visit and insightful review Baban, not exactly sure what you mean by the theme being delivered badly, could you elaborate?

[Baban.A.A]

I bet the theme of this poem was to say that love has powers nothing else has, but to me personally it is not true; I wish love has powers humanity don't, or reality don't, but it is not, they are more powerful that love, so in fron tof them love is a fetus inside a womb, or a fictional child living within us. hope it will elaborate the point, thanks again, it was a very well written poem ,but its theme has flows, I just wanted to let you know, but you are the writer, so you are free.it is just my opinion.

[Jack...]

Thank you so very much for reading our poem today. Everyone has a different take on love and its power and its code. To some it is magic and it speaks to them in a beautiful language and to some it is pain that comes in an unrecognizable voice. Thank you again for your comments. This poem was a fun project ... Frieda is a dream to work with.

[Baban.A.A]

thank you too.... I do trust you are absolutely right, I feel How great Love is, but reality does not know, reality and humanity ruined love really, for example, people believe they do love, but they use love not do it, and people are humans so humanity is greater and more powerful, because if love would be more powerful then it never allowed anyone to use it for his/her advantages. I do so very much like Frieda's works and read many of, and technically, the poem stands all the perfects values of a literary poem, but it was just my opinion as I said. best wishes to both of you, I acclaim your works. Baban

[Frieda P]

I do tend to agree with that it should never be used for a person's advantage, sadly so,this happens all too often, thanks for your thoughts Baban.

[Baban.A.A]

most welcome......thank you too for your understaning.......very comfortable revealing my thoughts with both of you. thanks again

[Dr. Wood ?]

great harmony.....I can HEAR it.....wonderful...your majesties

[Frieda P]

Thanks doc, glad you enjoyed our collaboration, it was fun to work with his Majesty!

[Dr. Wood ?]

I am tempted to down to the seafront and write Jack and Frieda RULE, OK
on the sea wall....But it's a tad too cold...I'll just stay here and THINK about it

[Frieda P]

Ha, you're too sweet doc!

[Jack...]

Thanks so much my friend.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

love the whol braille thing here..the idea of feeling the words rather than just hearing them...the idea of the poet becoming part of the cosmos...not just existing and then dying, turning to dust....we hope we are more than that.

nicely done, Frieda.

[Frieda P]

Jazzed you enjoyed that concept jacob, this was a collaboration with Jack, so I have him to thank too.

[s y e]

Woo, I always love to see a collaboration from you both. My two ultimate favourite people on this site come together as one and create something as magical as this....

Biologically, love is a powerful neurological condition like hunger or thirst, only more permanent. We talk about love being blind or unconditional, in the sense that we have no control over it. But then, that is not so surprising since love is basically chemistry.

"Low hanging fruit drips of endless day nectar

I loved this, sometimes it does take a lot of searching so we gotta do what we gotta do, aha. Lovely you guys, keep them coming.

[Frieda P]

Ha well you broke that down to a science, too bad our hearts don't understand biology most days, thanks for this insightful review noodlebumble, you always make me smile! ♥

[s y e]

Ha, did I interpret it wrong? >.< Sowwie and always a pleasure Mama F!

[Frieda P]

There's no right or wrong interpretation to love, just found your review very in depth and interesting noodlebumble!

[s y e]

Phew, fair do's, aha. I got carried away....

[Jack...]

Thanks so much Noodle. Happy you enjoyed this. Frieda is an amazing poetess to work with.
