I take you gently in my arms, and feel your warm embrace,
As light of heaven's stars above, shines down upon your face,
I see the glow of all my dreams, within your beauty there,
And touch upon moon's silver beams, as stroke your silken hair.

I hear sweet music of the muse, we dance throughout the night,
Free as the summer winds that blow, our hearts as one unite,
You are my goddess, Aphrodite, you touch within my soul,
And leave therein a satin bloom, a rose that makes me whole.

I feel the splendor of the night, as hear your siren's song,
Breathing in your fragrant scent, I capture all I long,
For time stands still, my Venus fair, while I am in your arms,
The moon itself, in sky above, cedes to your beauteous charms.

My eyes drink of your loveliness, soft grace of supple limb,
Sweet creature of the welkin blue, angelic seraphim,
I kiss the smoothness of your skin, as gaze into your eyes,
With soft caress, on feathered wings, I float upon night's skies.

The morning star, you are the night, we dance 'cross heaven's floor,
Upon the clouds on winds of time, my darling Terpsichore,
I sing to your love's madrigal, I'll love you ever more,
I whisper softly to the wind, I love you evermore.

...of the east,
it is confirmed, you are wicked no more...maybe you never were....
great piece of poetry... emotional, lilting, haunting and melodic... I am impressed, lets see if the maidens are!!!!

Regards, sudhir< !signature-->

 My heart is pounding, my stomach's inside out
I'm feeling kind-a-shaky, my mind is full of doubt
All I ever think about, is fearing fear itself,
Wish I could unscrew my head and put it on the shelf
Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight,
Don't know what I'm looking at, the lights are all too bright
My brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor
Sweep 'em up. Throw 'em away, don't want 'em anymore
Clouds race across the sky, day turns into night,
Still there are the questions, no answers in sight
Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight,
Starin' out the window, everything is just too bright
Brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor,
Wish I could unscrew my head, and kick it out the door...
You know I'm feeling kind-a....Strange
You know I'm feeling kind-a....Strange

Sir Eric humbly removes his helm and kneels before thee in awe. Beautiful work!

Oh, to be captured by the charm of such a wicked witch, me thinks I would be in paradise and all the stars a blazing would be in my eyes with one magic poet's touch.

Did I mention that this poem rocks?

Witch of the East, thy magic has indeed left many hearts aflutter
This poem is very good. . . and know that I have not stuttered!!
Thy spell hast thou cast, thy magic thou hast woven
I believe that thou shalt leave with the woman thou hast chosen

SUPERB!!!!

Oh! My! The heart doth flutter
at reading these tender verses
but I have vowed not to choose
no matter how my heart curses


(WHEW! THIS is wonderful!!) I'll be back!

Beautiful, beautiful, absolutely splendiferous!
The wording, phrases and feeling you used in this poem were passionate, loving and tender.
I am most swept away by this.....but not completely!! *wink*

Oh Most Wicked One of the Eastern reaches
Your words from your romantic heart beseaches
Passion from the truest lover's touch.
I didn't know you cared for Ian all that much.
