Savor

live and love

have you ever caressed the curve of a bird of paradise  against the back drop of an indigo dream  felt the pulse of starlight  piercing in a kiss  from a lovers quiver  do you let the heart dance with the lace of passion and twist a moment into a silky braid  defiant under the ancient sky  shouting out her name   a Goddess  between the breath of shadow and moon  hear the stars laugh  as you savor the taste of eternity  and feel a smile  for you - you live you love  copyright 2012 Robin Christopher Amaral

There's such longing in this ! the images are so vivid I can almost taste them... there is also an ambiguity in the poem that I feel really lends itself as the emotions and images are also intangible and without definition.. I cannot exactly explain what I think it is about, or the images, or metaphors within it, but I have an immediate emotional response to it..It was a lovely poem to find and read tonight, so thank you and well done :) x

NIZHONI.....Robin, loved this masterpiece! You are amazing how you capture the essence of life's wonderful moments in words. You inspire me...I have such a hard time penning my feelings down at times....maybe since English is my second language? I start thinking it out in Navajo hahaha.
I slept outside in my backyard with my 11 yr. old son last night and your poem certainly brings to mind the feelings of precious moments under the stars with my little man:
"hear the stars laugh
as you savor the taste of eternity
and feel a smile
for you -
you live
you love"
NIZHONI......beautiful. I am doing fantastic just busy with many projects!

I finally figured it out. The way you compose with words is like the way Maxfield Parrish paints.
That first stanza grabbed me, immersed me in the vision, the light, the moment. Well versed Robin.
