Imagination conjures up Inspiration... portends...

 

 

i am bursting with love

and

i don't even know her yet

 

she caught my eye

blindly

like a pickpocket

 

stealthily

with slight of heart

i don't even know her yet

 

but i yield 

to her perfection

yet haven't seen her form

 

there is love in a mind

gestating 

waiting

 

i don't even know her yet

but

i am bursting with love

 

and...

Well, I would say the unknown or the curiosity. You may be speaking about spring or a car or the metaphor of a woman as they so kindly allow us in our every day, or it could be an actual woman, but don’t let her know it because she’ll kill you in the end… Ha ha ha just kidding.
Leap! Buy that car! The unending ending I like as that IS love in itself. A beautiful read. Thanks.

ahahahaha .. oh "it's just the power of love" ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBl2QGAIx1s ... our deep abiding human need for connection and to give and receive love just as we are is universal and denying it only sickens the heart mind and body ... we are love doped ... and i .. for one .. can say i have been a dope in love :)))))))) what a cool poem .. really like where it takes me.

portends … an omen maybe :)

I don’t even know her yet (repeated
three times)
I am bursting with love
and (repeated twice)

Heart ruling the head:)

Such an uplifting poem dear J. Perfection? No one is perfect:)

I hope it’s more than your muse teasing you. Love can grab you when you least expect it.

There are no rules and preconditions for love. It defies every rule in the book. Sometimes a lifetime isn't enough and sometimes one falls in love with jusr a shadow falling on us. I loved this poem, the repetition and the multilayered meanings I drew from it.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

rules do go out the window when love is involved.
thank you, divya,

You are most welcome, dear Jacob.

I absolutely love the into.
Portends is a word not used much. What a great choice to use for your leap.

Thank you, my friend,

And... The thought and inspiration that brought you those feelings left you in a better mood than if you had woken up and you were out of coffee and had the feeling of not quite remembering but having an eerie suspicion that you had been dreaming of the psycho coffee stealing killer!
Don't ha just love imaginating? 😊

[jacob erin-cilberto]

yes, if only I liked coffee...the psycho stealing killer can have it.
thanks, Lorry,
