A Serenade of Love

Inspired by the Image

 

Twas the serenade upon the river

Soft, as the moon kisses the cities red roof tops

Twas the gentle rippled waves that did run

Flutterby, as the night time lights flickered a’glow

Twas the hands that held and the eyes that gazed

Upon that slow and serene magical night

Within a city that blooms the flowers of love

With every expanse of a passing eve

Twas a day

Twas a memory

Set forever….

Within rings of silver

The scent of a perfect rose

"Twas the hands that held and the eyes that gazed
Upon that slow and serene magical night"

Those are the most romantic lines of the poem, how sweetly that couple must have been toward each other on that night. It sounds like the perfect date with the perfect night. I also like the flow of the poem and how it doesn't hinge on any one word or phrase, it simply and beautifully describes a date with two people who are very much in love and how the atmosphere feels around them.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read my poem! =)

I like the lack of end punctuation. It seems the poem is the portrait above it, a moment, an image. And coining words is always fun. Flutterby is a good one.
