Eternal Fires

 

 

Unfolded secrets

caress my heart

in full view of the stars

Silent dreams and whispers

breathe…

in constellations of hope

 

Ribbons cast along the shore

in effervescent hues,

dance as

contoured waves approach

adrift, trickling…

forever a’ glow of this view

 

Touch me deeper still,

my soul

loudly echoes your name

in trumpet’s blare

of desperate tones

hoping you

hear

 

For in this heart does rage

an inferno, scorching flames of you,

climbing in a fevered pitch

Reaching for

endless journeys, as

eternal fires burn

your love

forever into my soul

Will, you are so spectacular. I can tell your work from miles away, you have that unique touch to all your poetry that just whisks the reader away - so utterly beautiful.

Hey Will, great writing. You are absolutely fantastic with love poetry; it just slides off my tongue, always great metaphors and description. So wonderful to read your writings, always an education to me. There are so many wonderful lines and stanza. I just simply love it. In constellations of hope...wow and many more. Thank you again.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Although undoubtedly romantic, expressive and full of passion Will, I lost the rhythm, the pace and the rhyme in this one?

[willweb]

Thank you.

Touchy!...

made me think of the beach while Northern Lights are on display .. Love can be a cruel taskmaster but this burning flame consumes a sacrificial lamb .. a sucker for love willingly we go .. deeper still .. i almost feel sorry for the speaker ... so much risked so much danger of heartbreak .. i enjoyed this poem thoroughly this morning Will .. another emotive expression one can read to a lover ;)
