Feather'd a rouge poem~

You planted wildflowers 

for my hair

 swept me off my feet,

gingerly feather'd 

a rouge poesy

in the shape of my heart

sang a song of tea 

unfurl'd in

honey'd rapturous charm,

nuzzl'd 'tween my breasts 

a note, pen'd of love

shades of lusty interludes

 unfold'd within poignant caresses

press'd poppies' poetry

crimson rosebuds and wisteria 

in blissful whisper's bloom,

cast in heaven's sighs

impassioned fire 

a'blaze 

~in foolish ecstasy

the Cyndi Lauper song is amazing, it in my head now swimming around and giving me smilies behind my eyelids... (I know the brain does amazing things sometimes.. at mine does)... oh and the POEM... I wanted to say something about those ecstasies (foolish as all get out) but everyone has mentioned them.. so.. leading up to those last lines, you colored the world with: "crimson rosebuds and wisteria
in blissful whisper's bloom, /cast in heaven's sighs" and besides the sigh I said out loud, I thought, yes Frieda, "impassioned fire / a'blaze" and I remembered a Dianna Ross song that went something like "If there's a cure for this, I don't want it", don't call the Dr."... you know, this is another poem I think your were smiling, laughing and giddy all over as the pen moved your hands (and perhaps heart as well).. perhaps you were thinking of another Cyndi song : "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"... lol. But Frieda its a romantically fresh, wonderfully sweet smelling (all them flowers in your hair) and muchly appreciated poem .. Ha my proof.. look at all the loverly comment you got .... you are one special poet/woman Frieda.. X

[Frieda P]

Love ignites and consumes us till we become ashes left to scatter in the wind...

[Frieda P]

Very poetic Rachelle, grazie.

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Sweet, sexy, creative… just a few words to describe this poem.

[Frieda P]

I like those words you chose, thanks so much Dale.

[Shirlena]

Well you did again...another lovely for my collection, very luscious and sensual and the descriptive language for this piece is so incredible. It is written as if you were bursting with passion that could not be contained, exploding ink all over the pages, Windows, WALLS oh my...I love it.

[Frieda P]

Love the word 'luscious' thanks so much Shirlena, jazz'd you enjoyed this one.

Thanks so much Coyote, always appreciate your kind words.

[Lyn Anderson]

Cyndi Lauper, now there's a blast from the past. Umm, well, foolish ecstasy indeed, a great, sensual verse. And, sorry to say it, but I will, because compulsion compels me to do so even as I regret the words on the keyboard -- I think you meant nuzzl'd not nuzzle'd

[Frieda P]

Oy vey...you and your compulsions. ;-P I thought I was so careful with this one too, thanks pal....muchly appreciated.

[David Scott]

I'm with you here...
Foolish? Nah. Never.
I believe we should call it what it is...
Whimsical in a happy expression of life and love.

[Frieda P]

You must be doing something right then Scott, I've been foolish way too many times to recall. Thanks so much for your thoughts my friend.

[MsJewel]

You have created some beautiful images for the reader to enjoy and the entire feeling of the poem is that of blue skies and spring flowers. Lovely my friend.

[Frieda P]
