A Home In Your Heart

A Home In Your Heart

A Poem by Adelia Alighieri
"

This was a tough concept for me to write on. But here it goes..

"
I found a home in the city of your heart,
A garden of roses, a fountain of splendor;
I found a place in the warmth of your dreams,
An abode beyond love's tender.


A gateway to the seventh heaven,
Within my reach;
Like the enchantment of a prayer,
None can preach.


Like the strum of a string,
The poignancy of a fall;
The magic of a miracle,
An eagle's squall.


When you were lost in the labyrinth,
I built a home where you never can;
And they sang to you all along,
A woman just became a better man.


It's you, love just came your way,
Come sit here in front of me;
While you wonder who owns your heart,
Let me stare at you for eternity.

Just came over to tell you I love your name. Now, I find out it's a pseudonym. Although--and I'm sure you've heard this before--your actual name sounds like the pseudonym.
Well, even though "Adelia Aligieri" is a phony, you did have the good taste to choose it--I guess that counts for something.
By the way, your poem is unbelievably lovely and staggeringly good--especially for a mere lass to have written.

you captured the hurricane of love- set it into a drinkable bottle - dwelling in another's city - oh the union of two...with the delicate after-fragrance of a rose- crimson- fragile - strong

Words of a beautiful flower that calm the monster within. It smoulders dead emotions replacing those with a blazing passion inside.

There is a depth in love that melts two into one.. and you've captured the colors and feel of that so beautifully... living within the city of another... What a vibrant, lush concept you bring to light!

Good poem, not as good as your other poems, but there are enough good lines to make it a pleasant read. I think the stopgap rhythm isn't utilized to good effect. Maybe you can improve this.
