~dance within the soul

You dance within the soul,

             make it hum so sweetly

songs from a nectar'd god

   as hips sway to reach your moon

           swathing bodies in divine Ecstasy 

      dawn's light dims in comparison

 Aphrodite in whisper'd yearning,

            of Sappho's lyrical adulated whimsy

         took bittersweet allusion's breath away

 joyful recognition echo'd the skies's breezes 

      written on favor'd clouds of surrender

               mesmerized in your explosive eclipses

    enraptur'd frenzy of poetic inspiration

                

breathe you in as a summer's day rising

                             unrelenting abandon of all senses

Listening to this wonderful music you chose and being mesmerized by the words you have written, thinking about the way Sappho wove galaxies into her love poems and with Aphrodite it was her look and touch... but neither of them could pull me into that swirling galactic center where I found a poem, an "enraptur'd frenzy of poetic inspiration" and a desire to dance...

WOW Frieda, wait a second I must catch my breath, sorry, I'm still floating toward the inner star as words continue to echo and inspire... WOW!!

What is your zodiac sign? i love the earthly welcome in this poem when you state "songs from a nectar'd god
as hips sway to reach your moon".
