My big re-entrance to the Forum! Yay! Now, this poem isn't my best...or maybe, it is. But I doubt it...well, here it is!

A maiden,
her skin making snow seem
dirty and impure,
appeared before me
in a forest.
"What do you fear most?"
she asked of me.
"Love."
"Ah," she said as she faded away.

Now a new figure appeared
before me,
a male, no older than I,
and said,
as he seduced my lips in a kiss,
"Do not fear love. Reach for it,
search for it, seduce it.
Be in love with Love."
This figure too faded away

I was left to
contemplate my new
misfortunes,
and who the maiden and her son were.
'Were they none other
than the Goddess Venus
herself, and her
son, God Cupid?
No, that cannot be,
'twas just my eyes
playing tricks on me.'


 ~goddess of love, passion, and desire~

I'll be here...why? I'll
be waiting...for what?
'll be waiting for you
so...if you come here,
you'll find me...

I promise.

Venus, this is excellent as always...

as he seduced my lips in a kiss,
"Do not fear love. Reach for it,
search for it, seduce it.
Be in love with Love."
This figure too faded away...

I LOVE this verse...very good!!
glad your back "home"  


 ...there are places inside all our souls...
that have never been touched...
there are places inside our hearts...
that need to be loved this much...

I love you, always.*

Welcome back, this was interesting and excellent.  I'm a sucker for a goddess theme!!  

 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......
