~Fly Me to the Moon~

~Fly Me to the Moon~

A Poem by Frieda P
"

Yes, I stole the title from Ol' Blue Eyes...

"
Take me by the hand,
          and fly me to the Moon
where fairies play
       & incandescent posies bloom
they dance on rainbows,
        skip on candy coated clouds
Take me on a Riverwalk
         when the sun dips for the night
we'll talk until the wee hours
               of  a new dawn's morn
under stars that glitter 
     with flushes of flashing harmony
perhaps a whisper or two
     whilst we dine on oysters & fine wine
Fill my head with notions of bliss, 
         & sweet forget~me~nots
if you ask me to dance
          perhaps, I'll take a chance
sweetly coo a melody for me
      adorning song worthy of a trance
we'll gaze at the sky, 
       see our own reflections
in the light cast
            upon our hearts in tune
If you take me by the hand, 
                   and fly me to the Moon

OMG This site is going to give me an aneurysm someday...I just spent fifteen minutes pouring my heart into this review cuz I was so touched by this poem, and the site glitches out and erases it...damn it...this is not the kind of thing I need happening to me today...anyways...

I will now try to retain the important bits the best I can: Any man who does not feel the need to extend a hand upon reading this piece is a fool...it reads like an invitation to an emotional utopia where romance is a sacred thing and not a game in which many people do not play fairly...I smiled at the feeling of innocence that pervades this piece and borders on playful, but it was a mournful smile as well, knowing that such innocence is often destroyed by bad apples before it has the chance to be enjoyed...wonderful work Mrs.R, you did a job on my heartstrings with this one :)

Not a bad song to have stuck in your head, and woo, I got a swoon!! ;-) x


"we'll gaze at the sky,

see our own reflections

in the light cast

upon our hearts in tune




If you take me by the hand, '
Lovely and sweet emotions are overflowing from your heart and quill and the words travel the distance to the moon and beyond to the stars.
I have been to the river walk in San Antonio , stayed at the Marriot and I love it..

This is beautiful, Frieda.. and who can resist Frank singing in the background! I love the imagery in this piece.. the moon and fairies and dancing.. such a soft whisper when read aloud.

Romance dances with your pen this morning, Frieda! I know it will be a good morning with a beautiful poem and a Frank song in my head first thing... :)

I like Nicholas too...I love watching the mardi gras on tv though.
Can we play among the stars? So very beautiful is your poem. It reaches deep into my heart this morning. I find it is time for me to "sigh" for a while. This one truely took my breath away my sweet friend.

Take me on a Riverwalk
when the sun dips for the night
we'll talk until the wee hours
of a new dawn's morn


My heart just skipped a beat.

Such a wonderful piece. The romantic in you shows.
Beautiful flow with the staggered formation combined with great imagery and a neat tone that really made this work Frieda.
