The Love Poet A more eloquent song I've never known For over me its words have thrown A comfort soft of mourning dove To blanket me with warming love Passion pours from his poet pen And fills the page with love and then He holds me in his warm embrace With words of light angelic grace I feel encircled by his charms Held captive by poetic arms Of wondrous verse and fragile phrase That leave my spirit in a daze I'm in a haze of misty sea Held prisoner by his wizardry My heart is captive in the clutch Of his linguistic magic touch He offers me a verbal wine Of pure and rarest vintage fine That fills my veins with muse's fire And stirs the essence of desire And in the verse's flow and ebb I'm caught in his poetic web Of strange exquisite mystery Exactly where I want to be I'm in poetic heaven's gleam So please don't wake me from this dream Elizabeth Santos [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (edited 01-30-2000).] |

"He offers me a verbal wine Of pure and rarest vintage fine That fills my veins with muse's fire And stirs the essence of desire" --very nice imagery ~Gene |

Elizabeth, my friend- This is a bottle of rare vintage fill ... with flavor and bouquet. Positively exquisite. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Liz... yanno, if my poetry does this to you, I'll have to write less so lil Lorelei doesn't feed me the keyboard! lol This poem flows wonderfully, and is filled with terrific similes. Well done, Ms. Santos. |
