Bonfires

(turn your volume down to a mellow low) About time I put out something romantic.For those who've found happily ever after, this ones for you :)

Bonfires

 

 

 Days are drifting astray

Light it ablaze, close beside you

Is where I want to stay

On the white sands by the Caspian shores

Looking at the night blend in with the waves

Fragments of shells under our feet

Fearless we lay counting the stars

Bonfires take us away

 

To jazzy skies of grey

Intoxicated by flames reflected in your eyes

Far far away I hide and seek, forever yours

Love like embers implanted in your cheeks

Your fiery smile in the cool breeze

Romantic music sets the mood to please     

Roaring with the wind, screaming your name

Chase after you through the seven seas

Bonfires take us away

 

To a mystical place where the moon and the sun       

Kiss and exchange glances, summer and winter romances

The life within a glimpse of an eye is an eternal lullaby

Put me to sleep, some dreams I forever want to keep

Your presence and essence with absence of doubt

Like a candle on a table shedding warmth out  

Bonfires take us away...

...Towards an endless love

I saw the pic.the title and I KNEW THIS WOULD BE FANTASTIC WORK. There is something magical and romantic about the glow of a bonfire. The smell...the sparks...it inspires the heat of love.

To jazzy skies of grey
Intoxicated by flames reflected in your eyes
Far far away I hide and seek, forever yours
Love like embers implanted in your cheeks
Your fiery smile in the cool breeze
Romantic music set's the mood to please
Roaring with the wind, screaming your name
Chase after you through the seven seas
Bonfires take us away


I love how you ended every thought with the "Bonfire's take us away" such a fluid read. A favorite.

another thing..Put me to sleep, some dreams I forever want to keep" that saying is worth quoting over and over again...dreams and words to live by. xo

Haha wow you make me so proud of writing :D Like i'll be honest with you muse, I sit down and go to write something and I honestly don't believe in it until I read the reviews on here and I start to question myself... is it really as good as these amazing people say, I mean wow you make me feel proud to write, thank you!!! I loved that line too "Put me to slee, some dreams I forever want to keep" I hope the poem plants an image or reminds people of their fondest memories of being in love :)

[KeeD]

Oh by the way Muse is the font and music distracting?

[Muse]

hell no...the music is superp..you know my taste...I think. If there was singing...I think it can take away from the poet's words. But it's soft...moody..who is this guy he's fabulous!

[KeeD]

Oh Keegan, how beautiful is this work of art! Your similes and metaphors to emphasize the romantic setting is deeply inspiring. The expression of feelings make me feel so warm and content. I can visualize the moments of happiness. I can almost feel the heat of the bonfire and how it relates to the heat of the romantic encounter. Fabulous job :D

[KeeD]

Thank you for this wonderful review, I only wish you experience these feelings always in your life. Much respect and love , Kee.
