Our Love

Oh moon and stars

I beseech you

open your samovar of sparkle

allow this night to lounge a while longer

permit my blonde tendrils to tangle with the hair on his chest

for a few more moments

 

I fervently plead

                        here I am

                                rosy cheeked and sanguine

sanction our rendezvous with your celestial light

that this night shall last

till 100 tomorrows have evanesced

for nothing is truly ours but this moment and our love

I missed this one too, I hope am not repeating my reviews. I have a tendency of re-reading your poems and not knowing whether i have read them earlier. This is good, very good lyd. Sometimes we wish good moments never end but they have to so we can experience new moments. Bad moments should never last a second though

No, you did not review it before or you would see your review at the top of the review list. That is how the site works. I am always thrilled to see reviews from you, my friend. By the way, getting out of writer's block is easier when you read a lot of other poet's work. Lydi**

I was into it. I felt like I should be with someone I love carrying out the very lines of your prayer. It was more like a prayer for a lasting moment. Gorgeous words, tinted with emotional vibe to achieve the very essence of the writing. Well done.

Thank you !!!!

love the vocabulary in this...such enhancement of theme...and if only we could hold on to these nights forever...this makes me think of one particular night with a certain something...some captured moments...perhaps a " shouldn't have done that" theme to the night...but am glad we did...

and even though that night went too fast...we did experience it..and will always treasure those fleeting moments under moonlight...

Yea, must be the fact I was discussing "1001 Arabian Nights" with my granddaughter. Very dramatic! we have to capture those moments while we can...full steam ahead and damn the torpedoes! Thanks for the great review, Jacob. Lydi**

for nothing is truly ours but this moment and our love...... loved the visual you create with your words :) how we only hope the night and the time spend with loved one last for some more time every time :) loved this beautiful work .. thanks for sharing

Thanks so much, Ria. Lydi**

[redzone]

emotionally tender, yet charged with the electricity of all those 100 days and beseechments.. may you get all the moments you want Lydi... your poems are so enticing, allowing us to share the fantasy and to dream... and that makes it more than "nice"...
