~quintessence of my heart's surrender

Shoop Shoop

 I breathe your burning essence,

     blinded in sight's enchantment

      of moon's propositioning the sun

a percolating brew of beckoning temptation,

  awakens the head spinning senses of delirium

could sell a tender soul in random abstract yearnings,

 frenzied winds of fiery  lit crystal clear pools of clarity  

   & wildflower meadows of nature's instinctual remedy

rendering me speechless in awe filled consumption

  of abundant smoky, salty tears reverence

         lavished in a symphony of elation's rush

   rising simultaneous as paroxysm's embraces

           lulling me onto weak knee's breathlessness

    exhaling in synergistic consummation's exultation

                     quintessence of my heart's surrender

OMG!! ... I'm so in love with this... it's the way you surrender!.... it's heartbreaking, all consuming, and piercing all at the same time... it hurts to love but soooo worth it to give your heart...

...and Robin Thicke is heartachingly beautiful...(his voice too) ;)

Mesmerizing work of art, Friedalicious!!~xoxo~

"Shoop, Shoop" Frieda, if you could feel, here, in your heart, "a percolating brew of beckoning temptation," or touch, "lulling me onto weak knee's breathlessness
exhaling in synergistic consummation's exultation
quintessence of my heart's surrender"... then I would say that's love Frieda and to see clearly, wildflower remedies , well I think that picture underneath your poem just might be you dancing in that field.... this is one of your special poems Frieda, one I will come back to often, it tickled me in all the right places... SIGHxxoo

Well you never waste any time 'getting' me with your poems Mrs.R, it always starts with the title, but with 'quintessence' being one of my favourite words, you had my eyes bugging out before I even got to the words, and there couldn't be a more apt title for this is quintessential Frieda all the way...I can't explain it, but this is just so you, and I'd know it was you in a heartbeat without your name being there...I was intrigued by blindness as enchantment, I'd never thought of it that way before, and you just go on enchanting from there...every poem you write weave a spell that does not dissipate with one reading, and I devoted a few to this one (as I always do) before I could find my own words to express how mesmerized I was by this lush romantic ode...at least I think it's romantic...another trademark of yours is the sporadic appearance of little words and images that refuse to allow the reader to take anything in a direct and literal context...after all, what drives a person to 'smoky' tears? Another totally unique image that stopped me in my tracks for a moment just to let it sink in...this one definitely had me in a propositioning mood...I'm certainly up for a pot of beckoning temptation now ;) Your poetic prowess is unparalleled love, and it's in these types of pieces where it becomes the most undeniable...love this one :) xo

[Frieda P]

It's a great word, I agree, you know that your reviews always make my heart skip a beat my sweet friend. You've humbled me beyond words. xo

[kublakhan27]

It makes me happy knowing that love...always a pleasure...xo

[Lauriegirl]

[Frieda P]

Thanks so much Laurie, muchly appreciated!

[Lydia Shutter]

After a heartbreak, it is not easy to open oneself to the world again. Your poem speaks of a reawakening of the senses. Suddenly, temptations are there again and we actually consider them. Finally, we surrender....and it is so sweet when we do. An emotional masterpiece, Frieda. Lydi**

[Frieda P]

My senses have lie dormant and re-awakened more times than I can count ;) Thanks so much Lydikey, always love to read your thoughts on my poetry....

[Matching Socks]

[Matching Socks]

[Frieda P]

[Matching Socks]

[Frieda P]

delirium
could sell a tender soul in random abstract yearnings,
frenzied winds of fiery lit crystal clear pools of clarity
& wildflower meadows of nature's instinctual remedy

that is truly beautiful. I don't think I've ever personally experienced abandonment on that level.

[Frieda P]

Doesn't happen often enough, thanks so much Tam.

[MomzillaNC]

Evocative prose…

The word "clear" feels superfluous to me in line seven.

[Frieda P]

Yes, I'm notoriously superfluous in overstating my case, I meant it as perfectly simple to comprehend but I get your POV, thanks Momzilla. Thanks for reading.

[MomzillaNC]

You're welcome. As always, I love the erudite use of language in your prose.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Wow to have captured your heart must have been quite a feat. This beautiful love poem just melts the soul my Lady. Am dripping like melted wax!

[Frieda P]

Woo you blew me away with your review John, thanks so much.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Pax!!!!!!!!!!

[Frieda P]

Is that good or bad John?...........

[John Alexander McFadyen]

You know in your loins where I lay!

[Frieda P]

Man that sounded dirty John.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Not dirty at all my Lady.
