Interlude

Interlude

 

 

 

eloquent words ponder release

from the tightly lipped artisan

finding strength in the kiss of inspiration

 

the skin of verbose longing

stretches towards the touch of the pen

and the quilted structure of a form

 

lies upon the stanzas of wanting

in hushed whisper

the theme explodes in rare climax

 

a poem conceived

from a poet's love induced advances

as she shyly turns away,

 

feeling the momentum

of his creativity

and the best intentions behind it.

jacob-erin-cilberto,
Interesting and inspiring....... to find that the bringing forth of thoughts to the page is like wooing the interest of a potential love. Very impressive it it's structure and meaning. Don't know what else to say except, very cool!!! Bless you much in your wonderful writing. Kathy

I would love it, if this was the Mona Lisa.
That smile, as she shyly turns away.
That sure would be a creation.
What are your intentions, Sir.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

ha ha...thank you, Paul.

not sure how I missed this gem Jacob...
agree with E on those last few lines, intentions do count... most times they allow the interlude to come alive... sometimes though they count for nothing and she fades, leaving us broken hearted...
I also liked that "kiss of inspiration" line.. how many poems are written from either imagining such a kiss and more, getting such a kiss... (an aside: I have a small book called "The Kiss" that combines art and poetry from many different poets through the years)... and even if only a "fantasy miss", I say write her another poem Jacob, perhaps she will see the good intentions as well as the romantic poetry and turn toward you and smile... ;0)

wonderful soft and romantic poetry here Jacob..

As usual you craft in the imagery of a wizard.

She shyly turns away, perhaps the strength of our passion to strong for comprehension?

Ahh... tis the way sometimes I suppose.

Love, both gained is lost, is such good stuff for the artist.... and the reader!

That spontaneous creativity more than often ignites during the calm of solitude ?

Wonderfully enlightening, fortifies and uplifts the spirit Jacob !!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

thank you for your kind words, Tom.

Sometimes the muse can take many forms. She'll dance in toward the 'tightly lipped artisan' then 'shyly turn away' all the while watching for 'the momentum of his creativity and the best intentions behind it.'
I hope your muse appreciates good writing, j. Because that's what this is.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

you are very kind, thank you, Ted.
