of early morn's dew, spirit of twilight's mist dark cherry wine's intoxication & comforts of a different rhyme those spaces that enchant musings toxic perfum'd lacings air filled of metaphorical blush'd smoke gasping for surrender 'tween honey'd breaths wafting in my mind of nectar'd burgundy enchantments
Great work as always, Frieda - such beautiful use of language and imagery!! "dark cherry wine's intoxication & comforts of a different rhyme" evokes a multitude of emotions and thoughts.
Somehow, I initially read "different rhyme" as "different time" when I first read it - perhaps that's what I had expected you to say. The line "air filled of metaphorical/blush'd smoke" is amazing too - I pictured a reddish-pink puff of smoke bursting in the air.
And one thing that makes your poems distinctly yours (as you probably know) is the 'ds at the end of certain words. Without your name on it, I still might say, "Must be a Frieda poem!" Wonderful and enjoyable to read.

Love this...... reminds me of the the winery down the street that makes wine from honey and fruit.
no grapes are used to make their wine and their honey and fruit wine is to die for.
Sounds great, would go with my poem, cheers Trace, thanks so much.

Ha yes you did, why does that not surprise me? ;-)
Again, your romantic poetry is lovely! I feel like this poem could go on, and maybe you should add more to it! It feels like it gains momentum and then stops. I enjoyed it greatly, though! I absolutely adore the lines "air filled of metaphorical blush'd smoke..." it brings such a fantastic image of gasping for your lover, and dreaming of them all at once. Beautifully done!

Ha I'll speak to the muse about that...thanks, really thrilled you enjoyed this one Sarai!
Longing for somebody even when the moments that some regard as perfection loom above, and I particularly like the romantic aura I receive from this poem. As if these are lovers and you still yearn for him . . . interesting

Your lover must be one lucky person...if you can write so well...I just wonder...I don't want to write anything more...I don't think I am good enough to review it
If you want to know me, read my poetry, it's all in there. I am a mother of three sons (my finest moments) a sister, a survivor and a little bit crazy. I lost my beloved sister to suicide, so you'll.. more..
