Inspir'd (Part 1)

..by a poem and a song

Inspir’d (Part 1)*

Your eyes,

brown with life’s excitements,

smilingly penetrate mine

and I see a poem,

softly written in italic lavender.

My eyes,

blue with allur’d alliteration

are set ablaze

with this thought;

“dance me to the end of love.”

~~redzone

* Note: This is a 2 part poem that came about

from reading a poem here at WC and also 

from the song, “Dance Me To The End Of Love”. 

This is a L. Cohen song, sung by Madeleine Peyroux.

Author's Note

Enjoy the poem and music....

Well the first thing I did upon reading this was check to see if Frieda has seen it yet, and she has so I'll move on to my sentiments haha Italic lavender is awesome, I love that part, as I do all the lines in this one. You've said much in a short piece, and left a lot of room for imagination in the process. One can never have enough allur’d alliteration, especially when it's blue, being my favourite colour and all haha Well done my friend :)

HA. I'm always amazed when she likes my poetry, especially when it's directed her way ... Frieda is special .. and glad you liked it too .. cool

Dude.... I loved this one, I loved everything about it. The wording the imagery and the message. Can't wait to read part 2!

Short but sweet. I really enjoyed the language. I would really enjoy reading the second part as well! :)
