On My Radar

On My Radar

A Poem by rubie

On My Radar

 

There you are

A blip on my screen

A glowing green dot

Suggesting you really do exist

And looking for clearance to land

My runway is alight

Lower your landing gear

And taxi on over to my gate

If I understood it correctly, I loved how you incorporated yourself into the story! Not many people succesfully can add themselves in a methaphorical way that doesn't steal away from the main point of the story. You added yourself as a character, no the main character, and I loved that.

You are most welcome my dear! ~SP
Beautiful poetry you've come up with!

So.. if I play with the analogy of art, i'd like to see "Radar" as "heart" where your lover blips ov'r the beam of its cascades (.. on screen) & wanders across the land of your heartbeats (which're compared with "taxi gates") for getting stored (.. clearance to land) deep into the fathom of love-lights. Quite fascinating to read! Nice imagery!
