~Dazzle'd

you are like opium, my drug of choice

       when you arouse me i've no control

weaving metaphoric poppies through my hair

    pulling tender tendrils to the fore

zephyrs of lively notes dancing on air

           playing whimsical flutterby melodies

whispering's from the ocean's depths

       ravaging heart strings 

in dark rhythmic heat

       as the wild beast that can't be tamed,

i get drunk on your elixir

       sweet tonic to soothe the spirits

the stirring vibrations,

         sweet love knots upon the breast

you dazzle my soul

truly beautiful...what imagery
i get drunk on your elixir-
reads of love and life
I admit I think of chasing the dragon when I read of opium- always wondered why they use that image with this
love that title and how you tied it in at the end
thank you fine lady

[Frieda P]

Ha different dragons, thanks Holly....

Breath through your Soul...
Eyelash to eyelash

Third eye open,
Thank you in advance...
Bending one force into life...

Enjoyed very much:)

[Frieda P]

[Sarah Khalil]

I enjoy the form of this above all, floating and free and soft - the first time I have immediately taken to a lack of sharp, high, structured capital letters in making this really look so very unwound. Very sweet and lovely.

[Frieda P]

Thanks for your visit and review Sarah, muchly appreciated.

[Rita L. Sev]

"Zephyrs of lively notes dancing on air..." I can hear the melody... Very nice, Frieda - a heady write, like the intoxication itself.

[Frieda P]

Oh I like that Rita, a heady write, thanks so much

[Rita L. Sev]

Anytime! :)

[redflutterby]

Stunning and sensual. Not sure if its wise to be addicted to someone like opium. Withdrawal from that love addiction would be close to hell. But when are we ever wise regarding passion? x
