Love letters and poems (vol 5)

by Staff Writer

The sun rises—
Against the backdrop of our lives
Burnt orange
against the blue gray dawn
And we shall discover—

The earth warms—
And our passion burns as brightly
Fiery red
Against the cool, blue sky
And we shall feel–

Life begins and ends that day–
And ours refreshed anew
Life-giving green
Against the new white of love
And we shall love—

The moon soothes—
And our love embraces with its glow
Subtle silver
Against the dark hue of the evening
And we shall—

We shall–
Discover more fully,
Feel more completely,
Love more passionately,
Than we ever dreamed…

    Had I more time, I might try to add to this work of yours. Not that it needs it, only that I gain creative energy out of the effort. You’re poetry is often so much more, ummmm, poetic than mine, which is often too introverted for the enjoyment of anyone else.

  2. Christina Paulsen Says:

    You claim blame the “poetics” of anything I write to being the daughter of two English teachers…cadance, rhythm, structure all found their place. And despite reading writing that broke such rules, sometimes it still sticks.

    Would love to see your additions. Or, publish them here for next week’s volume on your behalf…

  3. John Says:

    Someday, perhaps, when I have time to do your works justice, I might offer my addendums. Right now I’ll just enjoy what you write.

  4. Lost Soul Says:

    I really like your use of colours in this one. Here is one of my ‘love’ ones…

    Forever

    two souls
    the words within a rhyme
    a perfect match
    two hearts intertwined

    two lovers
    holding on with all their might
    destiny
    a future always bright

    two minds
    thoughts uniting as if one
    two minds
    thoughts colliding as if one

    one future
    a perfect sunset on the sea
    one ending
    forever you and me
