Weighless Flight

Weighless Flight

A Poem by Charlène Boutin
"

Remain still in my sphere...

"
To what do I owe the pleasure
Of your presence here tonight
No single sweet measure
But your eyes and their light

And into which dream do you venture
In this weighless flight
You are the brightest treasure
Ever to cross my sight

But do come in, I say
Now that you stand here
Lie with me if you may,
Remain still in my sphere

Though not worthy of your stance
I swear this oath to you
To never leave this blissful dance
Even once life is through.

Its been quite a while since I was in on the cafe, and your weightless poem was the first one that caught my attention. Since the first time I read you, I saw your potential, I am not surprised to see you become a budding, growing poet; playing with rhyme and catching prose and hidden messages within what you have written. A small note of assistance: you should try to have a smoother rhyme to your poems, develop a cadence; count the syllables in each line (they don't all have to be the same), and when writing your next couplet of verse keep the same order of syllable count. (ex. 6-8, 6-8, 6-10, repeat) Here's an example: "Oh the old cow flew past, caught her tail in a mast, and was swung round and dashed to the sea. So should you set your sail, without anchor or nail, you might find that you plummet as she." (6-6, 9, 6-6, 9, etc.)

Ca me fait tellement penser a "Child of Light" de ubisoft. Chaque ligne de dialogue etait de la prose-poetic. Tellement jolie a lire.

Almost a "pledge of allegiance" to love itself !
