The Proverb Poem of Love

The Proverb Poem of Love

A Poem by RHEA CROSLEY
"

A comparison of shallow sensual desire verses love done as a poetic proverb.

"

I have been to day where love abides
it is here where distraction hides.

A wedding oh so fine
That will stand the test of time.

This is the place where focus is intent
Where the one loved is heaven sent.

It is not a place of malcontent.
Nor is it a position that is intolerant.

It is a place where one sees what is best.
It is where goodness and light are present.

There is a wonderful bending of time,
a spontaneous blending of the divine.

Where love lavishes over one and then the other.
Like the blending of one stream completely to another.

It is this love that leads to a unison of body soul and spirit.
A place of no shameful remorse but of golden peace to those who enter it.

Sex without love is like a bird without wings in a dark night.
It flutters and bangs around but never takes flight.

Sex with love gives instead of takes.
Love with sex does not need to fake.


For sex and desire being alone are brutish beast that rob the soul and sever.
But true love has a well of life that springs within to be drunk forever.

"Where love lavishes over one and then the other.

What a place to be :) This is a beautiful piece... truly beautiful. It defines love.

I personally think that sex was designed for soulmates... for love. Not to be used and abused as it is, which is why you will not find any erotica writes from me, or if I come close to it, only in the light of love. I feel very strongly about that. That is the place where souls touch, and I don't think it wise to just let any soul touch one's own. But that is my own personal opinion, and I am in no way judging another's point of view, only giving mine. :)

You are very insightful and soulful. I really enjoy reading your work and listening to what you have to say.
Not to mention you're a fabulous writer! :)

Thank you again Rhea! Blessings my friend..

Loved this phrase. OH, sex with love is heaven.

If we were just here to procreate, sex would be nothing. Ah, the desires that come with loving another. Sweetness. thanks for sharing!

You write so descriptively of love.. I wonder, have you been in such love? Or do you write of it because you see it in your mind, in your heart, and wish to attempt to express that feeling? Only one who has seen love can write so completely of it. Excellent work. Love is a one-way street with two lanes.. the happy pair are walking toward the same general goal, yet they both have their own ways of getting there. I am impressed by you once more. =]

speechless!
in short... i loved it!
"For sex and desire being alone are brutish beast that rob the soul and sever.

amazing lines... true!

love, even and specially romantic love, is a higher level of consciousness! a higher virtue somehow, all kinds of love are!
we are not animals, though we recently are more animals than humans, but the core of our humanity is what matters, is what we are calling for. to find the human consciousness inside you, and love is the first and most effective step!

i love it!
well written!

You have poetically and vividly captured that passionate feeling of romantic desire and sexual attraction, in a true and honest relationship.

An excellent write!

a very nice insight you got there, Mr. Crosley! I am a fan of poetry that shares insight, and i would rather the likes of your style (and Mr. Lopez' too. i like your writings) rather than some dark poetry (aren't they very common here) ! thanks for sharing this to me. :)

How true!
