Poetic Breaths

~insatiable poetry

I breathe in this moment like a fickle lover

 to grasp you within my lungs

savoring every breathless last word

  filling with the very essence of your song

it stings like a bee on wildflowers in springtime

   as a drug  so deliciously potent, 

I can't get enough to quench the desire

  it floats within my heart on butterfly wings

ink drips upon the page like an ambrosial

 zephyr's

   sweet kisses upon my eyes and soul's embrace

gently soaring on memories of darkly posies

       this dance of poetry is sublime elation

 personified

You may breathe in air but you most definitely breath out poetry and fills the air for the rest of us to inhale. I found these lines to be sigh worthy:

ink drips upon the page like an ambrosial
zephyr's
sweet kisses upon my eyes and soul's embrace
gently soaring on memories of darkly posies

"I love that line" so much better than the nonsense I've been posting." ;)

The title is perfect too, a lovers inspiration can make it worth breathing.

[Frieda P]

Haha thanks muchly Muse, but you know we can't live without nonsense. ;-)

I know you wrote this to me but I'll try to be objective. Passionate and longing, nostalgic and painful. Touching a wide spectrum of emotions your work connects to those having felt the same.

[Frieda P]

Busted! I hate when you do that to me in public Doc....what have I told you? ;-)

[DrD]

No, not true. I only promised not to tell about that little mole on your . . . . see what you did?

[Frieda P]

Laughing my mole off ;-)
