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 breathe in this moment like a fickle lover
ME: *takes a huge whiff of the sexy piece of chocolate in my hand* e_e You smell delicious

I can't get enough to quench the desire
ME: *digs into chocolate* MORE! I must savor your taste!

Oh, yes, poetry is all that to those who love it and appreciate its essence. Your words are so romantic, Frieda. An almost sensual adoration of words and what they can create.....and the metaphor is stunning. Your words flow so easily....always a joy to read. Lydi**

[Frieda P]

I see I'm not the only fan...now back to the line of this verse...

I breathe in this moment like a fickle lover
to grasp you within my lungs

Absorb the moment in these lines....like a cigarette...

and then...

savoring every breathless last word
filling with the very essence of your song

and exhale...let the moment take you...

it stings like a bee on wildflowers in springtime
as a drug so deliciously potent,

the nicotine take effect...

I can't get enough to quench the desire
it floats within my heart on butterfly wings

inhale again the moment...

ink drips upon the page like an ambrosial zephyr's
sweet kisses upon my eyes and soul's embrace

the embers are still lit...

gently soaring on memories of darkly posies
this dance of poetry is sublime elation personified

ashes are left to dwindle in the last percussion...

I bid farewell...

[Frieda P]

Wow....I like this interpretation, hope you enjoyed your smoke! ;-)

[Glen Yumang Manese]

I had to give this a bit different of read...I do not even smoke..just came out that way...

[Frieda P]

However you enjoyed, muchly appreciated.....

Good to fall into love and wanting to grasp all the passion that is possible. I like the above lines a lot. Thank you for the amazing poetry.

Thank you for an amazing review Coyote.

[Tom]

These words flow effortlessly and freely like sweet nectar and just as it rejuvenates the butterfly, so they enrich and gorge the ever hungry literal mind of the poet !

What a refreshing tonic that was Frieda !

[Frieda P]

Oh I love that you thought it a tonic, thanks so much Tom!

[Jack...]

Desire pours from your beautiful poem this day, sweet Frieda. The music is haunting and touches me everywhere and the perfect compliment to you words sprinkled on this page like brilliant blooming posies at sunrise on a perfect morning, which waits just beyond the fields in vibrant light. Very nice Frieda. Once more, I repeat myself, you amaze me.

[Frieda P]

Holy Jack, you knock me over with your reviews, thanks so much my sweet friend. x
