Verona

The hate had discipline

Welcome never warm

A balcony robe gliding

Wasted grapes a drink

Look down and wonder

Hold onto a vine to sigh

Our love never in control

This is amazing and inspiring. There’s so much wisdom and chaos in these words, like love itself. I love how it takes on this Romeo and Juliet, old school kind love but then adds more to that with your words. And in a shorter piece too. The visuals here are amazing and now I can’t wait to write myself. So creative and just a wonderful piece.

Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. What a tragedy.

"Our love never in control",
sounds like danger ahead. Much to ponder on in this short piece duff.

Romeo and Juliet - the eternal love story, albeit a tragic one! I love Verona - a magical city. I have only been there once, but the visit was unforgettable! I enjoyed reading your poem!

Its such a beautiful place. Very fortunate to have been there. Thank you Robert.

Impulsive kids, those two, especially Juliet. Considering their families, genetics might have been involved.

[duff]

Very much so John. I hope you're well.

"our love's written down in history, just like Romeo and Juliet"

When others control our relationships....we are stymied in more ways than one.

I agree with that. Thank you Jacob.

Either a name of a city in Italy or a name of a muse. Like Romeo and Juliet, you are waxing romantic. I like the idea of vines sighing. Marvelous. Gracie Milleee....

“Hold onto a vine to sigh
Our love never in control”
A torrid sip from an Italian balcony…what more could any heart want? Your visuals are so tantalizing here, duff. And your words as hot as the sun. A balcony robe…yes. Perfect.

Romeo & Juliet a favorite. Thank you Annette.

Grapes can be a tangled mess! You know what I mean?

[duff]

I do. Love is crazy. Thank you William
