Love story: the beginning

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By: Grace and Soul
 
Juliet :  
Caress my cheeks o gentle lover
Deliver ode to my beauty
Flatter me with thine eyes
O’ Gentle sir across the room
 
Hark, he hears me
Cross he now the room
What manner shall I embrace
to catch his gentle heart
 
Romeo:
Doe eyes that beckon me near
soft fay with flowing hair
dare catch thy sweet perfume
O to thee I must rush
 
Sounds within are astir
songs rapture witness Her
how do I capture such
headlong in a loving plunge
 
Juliet:
Pray sir, say unto me
What brought thee  
With thy bold eyes
thou anger my brothers
 
For thou art of Montague
And I a Capulet
Shall thou dare thy head
Against my heart
 
Romeo:
I have come to seek
My true love fair
with eyes of rapture
lips for deepened pleasure
 
to make thee a Montague
wrapped one with thee
we shall caress the nights
and our glorious days
 
Juliet:
O heart be still
Against his words
O Romeo let us pledge
To meet again
 
Seventh hour on the seventh day
To tryst to declare our love
No Capulet nor Montague
It shall be thou, thee and thine!!

You actually added a creative touch on the classic tale. I even think this is more artistic(my apologies to all Shakespeare fanatics who might read this claim). My favorite line is 'Seventh hour on the seventh day'. Very impressive, my friend. Bows to you.

Seventh hour on the seventh day
To tryst to declare our love
No Capulet nor Montague
It shall be thou, thee and thine!! -- This is perfection...the seventh hour of the seventh day...what a fabulous idea!

You certainly have conjoured Shakespeare with this piece, and yet I feel as though perhaps he was simply conjuring something beyond himself as well, for it all began before...so far before. You show the infinity of love with this one, my friend; how there is no true beginning to pinpoint, and there is also no ending. Makes me hopeful...
