for all the slugs who haven't yet submitted in the poetry workshop as promised, this is my version of an imaged love poem. Only 14 days of February left!


Thou art sunshine oh my love
In blessed ray of golden charm
The scent of rose the coo of dove
Can all be found within your arm,
Thou art a rainbow during rain
The softening touch of morning mist
Thy touch my love, canst keep me sane
As red velvet lips yearn to be kissed
Thou art the wind in springtime breeze
Thou warmth of breath makes promise new
In sacred prayer, I fall to my knees
With whispered words for just we two
Thou art by nature strong and fair
I meet with thee, find passion there


Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen.

to the head of the class she goes!!!
Keth this is excellent...
this style of writing becomes you...
love the imagery laced with the romantic comparisons ...
the vocab was the other pleasure here
very well done ...
you should make these a habit ..
and I'll do the same readin them


When you see thru loves illusion, theres the danger
your perfect lover looks like a perfect fool
you go running off in search of a perfect stranger

(sigh) So sweet and romantic! And yes, you will kiss those red sweet lips and find all the love and passion your heart desires. You have such a beautiful heart, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you this lovely Valentines Day!

Love,
Noah Eaton
