Rarest Rose

Romance in Valentines...

Rarest Rose…Sami Khalil

Rarest Rose…Sundrenched and beautiful!

We belong together.

Together in the sanctuary of love, in the ballet of dance and flight of fancy, to full scale reflections on mystery;

When intuitions call the mind

When lumber kisses raging fires

When corralled prisoners are freed

When new beginnings of pain and pleasure

are served raw with a knife

and time is held hostage to pendulum swings.

Rarest Rose…Rain-washed and thirsty!

We belong forever.

This heart ride ought to be traveled in unison,

in infinite possibilities of spinning wheels,

accepting each other’s journey with soothing

pleasantries under moonlit paths.

Meaningful words should not be sullied

where conjured words live in dark corners becoming shadows of upheavals.

Yet, I await…In riotous protest, in vanquished pleas, in sweet madness, in tumbleweed moments for you, knowing everything has timing in the Big Clock, new beginnings in the great scheme, and peace when dueling is over.

Rarest Rose…Once upon a valentine, You were mine.

super passionate Sami! a pleasure to read ... its an interwoven dance with players each being a part ... some for a time ... some never quite touching ... and some a tight wound pair ... whose dance completes itself ... your closing is not such a case :((( i feel so sad ... so well done ... not sure i would use the word "lumber" ... forest perhaps ?? i think you have done a bang up job of mixing creative tension and release in the body of your poem .. so relatable and seen through the imaging ... that i feel the pain of your protagonist vividly .. nice one sir! thanks for sharing it!

This is a vital and raw and honest free verse filled with romance and the ecstacy of erotic love. Love the lines:
'When corralled prisoners are freed
When new beginnings of pain and pleasure
are served raw with a knife'

What a saga! You've created a river of poetry marrying love and Life's battles into the most glorious poem. Your skill - as always, uses language that paints emotions in a remarkably vivid manner, Sami. Yet, your stanzas and their accompanying picture are a delightful symbol of elegant and gentle love.

[Sami Khalil]

Whoa! What a glorious review from a great poet and a gentle soul. So glad you found it worthy to read and review. Million thank yous and blessings.

[emmajoy]

Wonderful poetry shared my friend.
"This heart ride ought to be travelled in unison,

This write made me ponder! Where would man be if he could not see particularly when women do talk a lot and men are more reserved lol. I wonder if we would still have that attraction in the aural sense. Nice writing King of writes!

[Sami Khalil]

I'm still pondering that and it might take time. Lol
Thank you so much dear poet and friend from the great Down Under. Glad to know you.

An honourable knight finds his damsel via battles and strives he surrenders to her womanly charms. Always adored by other men too. He wins the battle of love. For the fair maiden.

[Sami Khalil]

Whoa! I love how you put things in good perspective. Love is worth the fight but to wish them the best is another victory. God bless and thank you.

[Onlyme]

my pleasure Sami, you always produce exceptional beautiful poetry that warms the heart, mind and soul. And makes the reader part of it.

In sweet madness... Rarest rose... Sami, you have penned an aria of a ballerina on silken toes...
A Knight in shining Armour riding through a Rose garden... finding the Rarest Rose on the Eve of Valentines with moonlight dreams come true.
