![]() (Urwald by Eduard Leonhardi) *** Come closer! *** “Come closer!” your eyes said and I heard my voice, two octaves lower than usual, muttering “yes!” I moved into your orbit and you captured me, with the authority of a black hole, sucking me in. Urban backgrounds converted into vast virgin forests where we breathed each other in mouthfuls of ardour. Our hearts drummed wildly within our ears excluding any other sound except the original sound of creation. As god and goddess we took possession of our very own Universe performing to perfection our idea of love’s heights. Alternatively we were thunder and lightning until we gave birth to the most radiant rainbow ever seen. In midst of an explosion of diamond splendour, while gazing into each other's eyes we knew we were home and witnessed Paradise. *** |

Hi Margherita, Lovely poem. I just started posting on this site and am amazed at the quality of the poems. I tried a couple of other sites that weren't very good. I am just trying to find my way around and so far I have read some very nice work. Ida |

Throughout this lovely read, I could not stop thinking about all the young people who would be astounded, perhaps scandalized, that anyone past their age would think such a thing, let alone write it. Yet who would we be if we left such feelings behind us as we move on, like footprints in the sand never to be seen again? What a terrible place life would become. Better we should keep the old ones and add to them at every opportunity. That joy would keep us young forever. Thank-you, Dear, for such a loving reminder. |

Welcome home. |
