Quixotic bliss ~

Kissed my face like

      rain on a steamy summer's day

tousled my hair as

          a warm zephyr's embrace

sent shivers up my spine

            of wildflower sighs,

stole my heart in 

          unrehearsed poesy's verses

serenaded my spirited

        whimsy'd yearnings,

etched my name 

           upon your naked skin

flagrant impulsion 

             of strong pulsations,

 earth whirls in your

           gravitational pull, 

   vibrating a new dimension

           off its tilted axis

         just the 'tween spaces of us exist,

my affection beats 

             in perfect synchronicity

when I bear witness 

        to your soul's intensity

    in sweet surrender's ecstasy, 

whispered endearments

of endless time,

       quixotic bliss of 

             infinitude's poetic rhyme

Frieda, your poem makes it feel like the earth has opened up and jousting at windmills is a noble undertaking.. are you the fair "Dulcinea" in disguise??? Perhaps it's the "wildflower sigh"??? Which ever, love and romance aren't dead afterall...!!!

[Frieda P]

Did quixotic bring Don Quixote to mind? You know that's the origin of the word, you probably did...you clever romantic you....I feel another poem coming on, you've inspired me....Dulcinea is it...thanks so much my sweet friend !! x

Intriguing. If I could have naked poetry right now, I would have while reading this poem.

Thank you for sharing Frieda.

Frieda, you are an amazing poetess, dear friend. You have magic in your soul, and illusion inspires your writing. You take us on a flight of mystical imagery from which there is no escape until the last word is finished. (God, I do write better with two glasses of wine in me!) Ha!!! However, I don't ever write anything I don't absolutely mean with my whole heart. You are precious. Thank you for putting this one together!

earth whirls in your gravitational pull, NIIIIICE love that sentence - spot on for what love does.

Beautiful images you created in my mind, a lovely write.

I don't think my soul is ever ready for the intense experiences they are presented when I click on your pieces.. I never know what to expect.. Will it be a whimsical gypsy dance that makes my soul soar, or will it be a sensual seduction that sets it aflame, or like this one a lovely romantic caress.. such a breathtaking journey that leaves you throbbing with emotion... words pulsating in the psyche manipulating thoughts along with mood.. I adore this song and this poem ma'am...

If there is any heaven, it is there in your words for sure. Please never put your poems for auction. We will go bankrupt ....:P

A love poem that is all about the passion - beginning with a kiss, and leaving on a poetic note, this is a joy to the heart, Freida!

[redflutterby]

Sounds like love against all odds...without care of the obstacles in the way. More common when we are young and naïve but id like to think we can find it again at any age. Beautiful imagery here...soft and gentle like the caress of a lovers hand....

This is what I would call a slow-burning piece Mrs.R...we begin with a kiss, like rain on a summer's day...before long, names are being etched on naked skin, and we ultimately get to a point where we begin pulsating in perfect synchronicity...whew, you have a great sense of pace when it comes to these pieces...there's always a tempo that drives these ecstatic excursions, giving the reader ample time to savour each image, until a certain point comes when the savouring of imagery stops and it becomes a matter of hanging on for the ride...ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride...Mrs.R is very much alive in this piece...she's calling the shots, and controlling the pace, which is fine by me ;) xo
