I seek not its light

dreaming in the wee hours of the morning

 

 

 

I seek not its light

 

I cast my eyes towards the sun,

beyond the darkened fence, the fielded midnight thoughts,

watching, through clouded images, knowing eventually

I will witness the birth of a new day

 

I reach with my smile in a curved line

seeking a destiny still unknown but written

in words of future phrases,

which will come to pass…on multi-colored wings of affection

 

I send my heart on waves of scented mist,

collected from the corners of my world,

flowing free from silent words and favored gestures

of desire’s endless intentions

 

I hand my love to nature, freely, willingly…

so that it may be delivered amidst

blooming jasmine and truer promises…to you,

before another dawn’s light finds your beauty and you awake

 

I cast my eyes towards the sun…yet I seek not its light,

nor its warmth…for all I seek is you

INTRODUCTION

Romantic poetry is a combination of love and nature. "I Seek not its Light" takes the reader on a whirlwind of i m a g e s and e m o t i o n s. It reads almost like a vow to this special person in the writer's life. There is not a doubt in my mind that the speaker understands how to court a beautiful lady.

CONTENT

The sun symbolizes warmth and affection in this piece. The narrator focuses on dawn; the intermission between night and day. The speaker is caught in a loving reverie as the sun sends an emotive vigor. Overall, this is a composition of a tragic romance. There is an overwhelming feeling of loss yet the writer sets a comforting stage.

Beautiful work, my friend!
