Oh Aphrodite!A Poem by John PrestonOh Aphrodite! Who
have thou sent this beautiful theros day, warm even hot in direct sunlight this morn; an ordinary day
no thought of love, no one in mind as I walk outside, with my sand dunes to
climb. Somehow unknowing, fate, chance their one step high; an angel, my eyes to her eyes, face to face, bosom
to bosom, so close, so near, a
smile, a smile that gives me joy,
excitement, butterflies, flush, heart
beat increases who knows. Her purity being there, over whelmed by her radiance for
a few seconds in heaven; a face so out of this world, no true word can explain, she who has taken
ones heart. Lost in her smile, lost
in her eyes;
those eyes so
captivating,
one word I need, “love.
“ What is this warmth?
I feel from thee, not of thy body heat; it is more than that, cool refreshing, yet’ warm glowing, invisible attracting
pulling calling,
all around theirs
only she my eyes see,
it seems a haze, a
cloud, or light grey fog
surrounds this
beautiful woman,
she’s taken or given
could it be love,
not a physical
feeling of sex, not that.
It’s more, much more; Eyes see true love
for one,
is this how paradise
is?
Lost for words we
have no speech, only sunshine warmth of heat, and sun’s rays only of light. Yes, yes it ‘tis two as one, all that is, that
was, lost.
Signals, rightly,
wrongly taken, not a crush, so unexpected; then one word to break the spell, those lips we see open say, “Hello” Lost in a
world not of this,
mind confused speak
fool;
one makes love, takes
love that’s of the physical, their
seems another, could be wrong, right
day, time, weather, sunshine, temperature,
frame of mind.
However, most of all
that face, person in front of you; it’s not the place could be anywhere for a second cloud nine. Is this an angel in
front of me?
Forever smitten like
first love;
time does heal
replace what is taken,
a calling within to
be with thee,
is it fate, a Goddess
in front of me?
Only my heart knows.
Lost in his dream world a voice calls out. © 2018 John Preston |
