JUST TAKE IT, IT'S YOURS FOR NOW

When that love comes

Seize it! Take It!

You know it's yours.

Nurture it into a lifetime

Keep the ashes of desire burning.

Let each moment, flower

Into everlasting blooms

That are yours.

Take it! Its yours!

Before its imprisoned,

Stolen by someone else.

I cannot say more

My images of thoughts

Need to continue......

The fleeting nature of love is painted so vividly here. Keep it - but don't imprison it spells out delicate nature of it. This is class Andrew.

And I love the 'real-time' feel of the ending of this - almost as if the writer has just came out of a trance and isnt afraid to share the higher source of their inspiration.

Great write my friend.

Love is a garden. Give it what it needs and you get flowers. Give it what it wants and you have a refuge forever.

[andrew mitchell]

Lovely analogies you write "the garden" it is!

[Gee]

A ha,another very fine write Andrew.Are you leaving the silliness to us half wits and joining the "proper" poets?

[andrew mitchell]

No bloody way! Dont believe me, read "I give you Mr Night" lol

[Dani The Unreviewed]

Yeah. This is nicely said, especially like the ending of this. And the beginning when you just jump to the point of the whole piece:) Nice job:)

[John Alexander McFadyen]

A flowing piece with a hint of vulnerability. The protagonist longs to be loved and has a loving nature that is unfulfilled.

[andrew mitchell]

lol John you nailed it! thanks for your reviews. You made me smile lol

touch her soul caress her heart make love to her gentle and soft hold her hand
whisper in her ear she will be yours for a hundred years

Nurture it into a lifetime
Keep the ashes of desire burning.
Let each moment, flower
Into everlasting blooms
That are yours.

I loved those lines.
I also liked how you told 'take it it's yours before it's stolen by someone else'.

Nice poem.
