~ Episode, Elisa Laura, The Love I feel deep Inside...

~ Episode

 

 

For you, I would dance infinitely,

Along the sparkling canals

Of Amsterdam,

 

In the depths of the night,

Where I live, and see;

 

And feel the passion of my death,

Slowly creep in, at every pass I make…

 

I want to touch your ivory beauty,

Almost taste, the passion of your strings;

Where you and me collide in fire…

 

Your dark shine, your hair;

And the reflection of the morning glory

Your teeth as white as our kiss;

 

All this makes our music more intense,

We are love and the invisible…

 

Evaporated air whirls through my fingers,

And I finally breathe out, my last breath...

 

It was you, for who I shone, and 

                It was you I played…

 

 

-        Elisa Laura

I just floated through the whole read... on a cloud... in a dream.
Really effortless... stunning metaphors. At one with the instrument.
Its like the fingers are the hammers. Love or the piano.... yes to both.
To the pen, most certainly.

Beautiful writing Elisa-

Oh thank you so much my friend again, for reading me. I appreciate it very much, I'm so happy you liked this one. :) it's my endless love for the piano, and music, I play it like a lover.... ;) haha... thank you Terry. I am soon back for more of your fantastic writings. Greetings from the Netherlands.

[Odysseus Wanders]

So happy I got it right... I was going to ask if you played, because it sure felt like it. I did not know if you did or did not. "Your dark shine, your hair;
And the reflection of the morning glory
Your teeth as white as our kiss;"

After this, I knew... such a great play on words. Ha.

Ha ha, yes, thank you so much, I have a big smile on my face right now friend... you have those feelers. I can see why you are connected as a sun to the one you love now.... ;) great to have you by my friend. Truly. (I am in a sort of hiatus, but will be around, and back soon, with all my heart, and intuition tells me, to support your writings). I'm grateful to you.

You have me stunned this morning - utterly incredible words, and so beautifully rendered, Elisa! I've already read this particular poem several times, and there is so much to say, but it's difficult to find the right words.

"For you, I would dance infinitely/Along the sparkling canals/Of Amsterdam," just this short verse created so many images in my head. The love for music, and for an instrument, in a sense, is a very much like a love affair between human beings, is it not?

I can understand because I've felt the same love for my saxophone (as naughty as that may sound). There's almost a spiritual connection there sometimes, especially with someone for whom music comes naturally.

I must admit that I didn't realize it was about music at first, but as I always say, that's part of the fun of poetry. Each reader will interpret the poem differently, and even the author might see different things in it after she reads it again.

Hi Eric, good morning still to you :) thank you very much for your words here, wow, they truly humble me. I'm so glad those particular lines could make a difference to you. It could be interpret indeed as my love for the music, aswell to a lover ;-) that's the funny part indeed of poetry.... we can as poets, turn every metaphor, as we want, and it gives new mazes for the reader, as well for the author lol, sometimes, after finishing a write, I see new gateways, even myself.... beautifully said my sweet friend... Hope all is well with you, and that your flu is gone too.... (for I have it now lol)... Talk soon! :)

[Eric Pudalov]

You're welcome, Ellie!! Ah, of course, I didn't think of that...many of the best poems have multiple meanings. I'd like to think that mine do too. ;-) Yes, my flu is all better - hope I didn't give it to you over the Internet! (Are you feeling better today?) Talk to you soon.

Yes, so great you think of yours do too, I know they do, they are so rich, and so full of great metaphors, and cleverness. I love it. Great you're better dear friend. I'm getting slowly there too... we will talk soon, much to tell! :)

[Eric Pudalov]

Great, I look forward to it, my friend!

Me too!!!!! :) sorry I was sleepy earlier.........

[Eric Pudalov]

Oh, no worries. I've been feeling a bit "off" the past few days. Perhaps it's the tornados?

You stay safe, in your area.... in this Tornado season. ;)

[Eric Pudalov]

Thank you, I am (as much as possible)!

[SquinklaPsyOps]

In my opinion it sounds like a description of a person that is inspired to keep playing a musical instrument motivated while contemplating a beautiful person.

And that's a gorgeous interpretation Raven Sis.... I knew I could count on your magic.... :)

[Legion]

Lots of wonderful imagery. I can feel it. Feels like the anti-piece of something I wrote years ago called "Blood in the Key of a Jealous C".

Thank you dearly my friend :)

[Anita Singh]

Beautiful and serene. You create magic with the words.

"I want to touch your ivory beauty,
Almost taste, the passion of your strings;
Where you and me collide in fire…"
Amazing lines! :)
