Desire’s Voice An octave below rapture Desire whispers back Dampened in the waters of half breaths Your words given voice in my mind My hands rest in the stillness of our story Rendered volumes scented in moonlight I hear the music as my heart song Rhythm wild and so strong Harmony, caresses the air Spins, the cosmos of my soul Singing inside, attuned to each note In a sigh above rhapsody An instrument beneath your fingers Strum of strings that arch in grace Carried to a choir pitch,and trace An octave below rapture Desire whispers back Copyright Kkh 11/17/07 |

TD, The first three lines were simply amazing! They lured me in to enjoy your wonderful poem! It was nice to read your poetry again. BTW, making way to the library right now with this wonderfully descriptive poem. misce' |

Excellent title The two beginning and ending lines are indeed most fine!; however, I am particularly fond of: “…our story Rendered volumes scented in moonlight”; “Rhythm wild and …strong Harmony, caresses the air … Spins…the cosmos of my soul(!)” AND: “In a sigh above rhapsody An instrument beneath your fingers” Applause!! |
