~Pausing on a sigh

I paused in your disposition,

an excerpt of my sentiment's

timely extracted passages

affection's cadenced inclinations

complexion's blush'd bias tendencies

dusky clouds amidst delectation's reflections

wildflowers breath at the nape of my neck

scent'd of twilight's mysteries & amber brandy

a calm filled of shivers kind sympathy and tea

parched of wither'd revered druthers, 

begotten heavy sighs of never forgotten harmony

etch'd within scorched reminiscence's memoirs

rewritten script'd blossomed desires on dusty shelves

smoldering in long ago places of nightfall's rhythm 

haunting wakeful hours of dreams without rhyme

wistful for the dance 'tween spaces of sublimity's poesy

Dear Frieda, you have a mastery over transporting your reader to places that can only exist in some impossibly beautiful realms of their beleaguered minds...Here, I was transported to a beautiful, hazy twilight with a dream lover in a quaint, lovely villa full of comforts, a poor, harassed me can only think of...

A thundering ovation!

Thanks so much Divya, that's the best compliment a poet could ever get, if you felt transported I'm ecstatic my friend!

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

Sigh... I want to stay on this page forever and never ever leave again. You have me sighing, think I could just jump into my screen and stay here? :-) I am at a loss for words, you blow me away each time.

Love this. Past love, and passions tucked away between the pages of our minds.

[Frieda P]

I like that ron 'between the pages of our minds'...thanks so much.

Your most welcome Frieda.

I love love this! The word pairings are just plain brilliant. You are a genius, Frieda. I'm starting to think you have swallowed an unabridged Webster dictionary.

[Frieda P]

*Laughing* here, thanks Arzel, I love words, if you throw numbers at me, I run in the opposite direction, thanks so much ;-)

[Blue]

We have something in common, yay! :)

[Frieda P]

Haha poetry and we abhor math ;-)

[Rita L. Sev]

wildflowers breath at the nape of my neck... A definite "sigh" in this line, Frieda...

Long ago romance is no less sweet for the distance. This is truly lovely. :)

[Frieda P]

Thanks so much Rita. :-)

Lovely poem Frieda ..................

[Frieda P]

Thanks Baby.....

I really love the concept of the poem. A refelection, a reminiscence of desire frozen in a point of time. There are some sublime lines here, like
"scent'd of twilight's mysteries & amber brandy" and
"wistful for the dance 'tween spaces of sublimity's poesy " .
Personally, the poem is a bit too verbose and the sentiment gets overshadowed by the length of the lines, but that's a minor niggle.
Anyone who can write such a poem is obviously extremely talented!

[Frieda P]

Doing the happy dance, thanks so much for your kind words Abdul!

Your poem is the first and only thing I've read so far on writerscafe.org but I was compelled to register and say how beautiful I think your poem is. Thank you for sharing it! It's been a long time since I've read any poetry, and to read this feels like I unexpectedly met an old friend that I lost touch with long ago. Who knew I would find a warm fire this winter night? Thanks again~

[Frieda P]

What a lovely thing to say, much appreciated, and welcome to the cafe...thank you kindly.
