Remember

ahhh...romance....we never forget

“Arising” by Richard Johnson

A quiescent day
no fizz or bubble
to the languishing minutes
as they crawl into hours
so my mind wanders
to a place where
similes sang
poetry partied and purred
the house hummed
and you touched my very soul
with a simple wink
if you were here
you would shave off
the day’s beard of ennui
with your razor sharp joi de vivre
yes opaque images dance
on this quiescent day
and you best believe
mon amour
I will never forget
to remember

Author's Note

just a bit of romantic fantasy

This piece is full of flavorful words . I learned some new words today . I love romance and romantic stories . Its really nice to reminisce those moments back in time when were in love and the world is ours . I'll never forget such time in our life when we are drunk with wine . From the winepress of Venus . I love these lines " to a place where simile sang and poetry partied and purred ". ...Sounds like love letters to me sealed with a kiss ... Thanks for posting and enjoyed the read .

Romantic fantasy indeed Lydi! Love the many turns of phrase weaved in here and the mix of poetry with the romance. Don't like the graphics. Your words do not need such graphics.

[Lydia Shutter]

Yes, you have mentioned that before. For me, the graphic sets the tone of the write. I guess after working in advertising for so many years, I feel my words need the accompaniment. I do appreciate your review, John. Lydi**
