Atop this pedestal

Atop this pedestal

You shine incredible

Radiating notes

Hitting the highest decibels

In my ears

As if on a loop

Marching through

My brain

Like the heaviest

Of armed troops

To grab my heart

Lying on the floor

You need not

Bend and scoop

As a wave of the hand

Whisks it up

To the heights

At which you stand

Completely by happens stance

To win my adoration

Was never planned

But yet I am conquered

Like a uninhabited undiscovered

Foreign land

Boats coming into the beach

Completely defenseless

Love, when it turns to be divine and hence unconditional, leads to total surrendering...defence won't have any place there...you are drawn towards its music like a boat that moves in the waters of love...good poem, Swan...liked

[Coyote Poetry]

When we fall in to adoration of someone. No defense but hope and luck. Love and kindness will be returned. I like the flow and the story in the poem. Thank you for the outstanding poem.

Yes there was something innately grandiose about this piece.

[Fabian G. Franklin]

Very good logical progression in the write as well as use of metaphor and symbolism. I enjoyed the read.
