AEONIAN

A pure love poem

 

 

My sweet aeonian passion 
You are my honeysuckle rose 
Seed of my dreams at midnight 
Comforting me as I lay in repose 

My zephyr in the morning
You are a gentle waking breeze 
I always breathe you in softly
You set my heart and mind at ease  

My afternoon sunshine 
Your love brightens up my day 
When you shine your light upon me 
It always shows me a better way

The syncopation of my night 
You rock me gently to peaceful sleep 
Held in your arms, I am helpless 
You make my heart & soul feel weak 

I adore the framework of your love 
It greets and guides me everyday 
It is eternal and everlasting 
Never leading me astray 
Nothing can ever change it 
Beloved, you are my blessed need 
My sweet honeysuckle rose 
Born from love's aeonian seed

I love the thought in this piece, but brother honestly for my opinion in writing material like this, be minimalist, the shorter words the better it gets, try to use one lines but powerful words that can connect right away to the readers. Straight to a readers heart. I know you will be there as you go on. Keep writing! Still, I love your work.

I am not a minimalist. I write how the spirit leads me. Sometimes short and sometimes long. It is what it is. LOL Thanks for the review.

Very nice work. Great use of words.

[Eddie Phillips]

Thanks, It is a little robust but that is how I write sometimes.

One thing about your writing, my vocabulary is increasing and that is a good thing. :)

I can feel the emotion of this and that is what is important. Very nice.

One thing I say about my writing is that I write for me; appreciate the reads and reviews, but I have to stay true to who I am. I am glad that you do this as well.

I write very robust at times. It depends on how the topic. Aeonian mean eternal. I look at love as a eternal thing. I wrote this poem while talking to a friend of mine on Skype. He was telling me how he missed his girl. I wrote this while talking to them. Thank you for connecting with this piece. I know the vocabulary is strong and that I could write it simple but then that would not be my original thought. :) Thanks for the review.

My Zephyr in the morning...I like that. A lot of big words but still a great write!

[Eddie Phillips]

Thank you, I write like that sometimes. When I look back at it, I think it is harder to write with the "big" words then if I used smaller words. The idea behind this poem is Eternal love. I could have easily written a poem about eternal love with simple words. I think my heart wanted to write about it in a more robust way. This poem definitely uses words that most people don't. Still it is true poetry because it expresses me. LOL Thanks for reading brother.
