Sweet AssailantRide on, dark knight, desiring her spice, her velvet scent Your love is nigh and urgent ride on through battlement Her hazel eyes a weapon now brandished to the sky Within attacking moment of impassioned battle cry Her love comes charging onward no defense can you raise against her thrusting, thrilling voice Your head, your heart, ablaze Impale your sweet assailant as victory floods your mind and the spoils of love are flavored by passions, unconfined |

Wow....how sweet is this? What wonderful visions this ones spills. Loved the imagery and the flow but the spell it cast is awesome indeed.  |

Squire fetch me my horse. . . For there are battles to be fought And hearts to be won Victories to be sought And songs to be sung. . . Claire, your words always seem to take me back to that time. . .when bards roamed the land, telling stories of love and life. . . of battles fought. . . *sigh* This was no exception. . . just wonderful. . . ------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

Mark, you are so generous with your kind commentary...thank you so much. Sven, "writing" will often take me back to that time, as well, and the results ... well, you have read for yourself. The aire and intrigue of romance from times past is inspiring to me. I am glad to know that you enjoyed reading this piece. Thank you, my friend. Brian, sometimes it seems as if the spell has been cast upon me, and I am simply allowing its images to surface. Isn't it interesting how some poems just seem to write themselves? Thank you for reading and offering your lovely response, Brian. Liz, thank you. Your encouragement is dearly appreciated. So glad you liked this piece, my friend. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Claire~ What a treat - Your comment struck me with great familiarity- 'Isn't it interesting how some poems just seem to write themselves?' And my pleasure that this one you shared. Delightful always to see where your muses have taken you. Hope you're having a wonderful day, my friend. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Marge, thank you for reading this one and letting me know it pleased you. I had forgotten it was here! Rex, perhaps resistance is futile...and submission, sweet. Thanks for reading, dear Knight. Denise, your encouraging words add beauty to my sunrise...thank you so much. Sudhir, you flatter me, sir, with such grand commentary, and I will whisper a sincere "thank you" before I depart. Terry, your enthusiasm is "sweet" to find here this morning. Thank you. Local Rebel, you say the nicest things. Thanks for letting me know you liked this one. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
