"Na'arah" is a Hebrew word meaning "Young Woman".
...This was written for/of a love in Israel...

How can i not write
the verse?
the chorus?

angels sing melodious
to the rhythm of her sway ~
a Bourguereau image,
sensuality personified
from lips
to eyes,
to shapely illumination
of opal dreams.

streams of euphoric
pleasure passion droves
swooning ~
shattering
into diamonds descending.

a cool spirited
angel ~
hov'ring spheres
of myriad orbs electrum
envisioned
in my meditations.

delicate neon mists
outlanding
the solemn twilight,
betwixt mountains
enfolded by clouds
of an ephemeral haze ~
the eastern night sky
o'ershadows the vast
horizon of eternity.

when i think of her:
clouded grey star fall ~
bright,
peering eyes
of Supernal Visualization...
with wisdom's lyrical
wish for reprise ~
a twilight shine
bespeckled sky scintillation
of love ~
a slow,
sombre-thoughted
passion kiss
and
vivid nightshaded
bliss
to enlighten
my dark water'd heart.

(reprise)
her halo,
tho' tarnished,
emanates
an ancient beauty
of lunar glow,
shining through the haze
of the rusted gates of Heaven.

a marbled purity,
shaped by Artimine hands ~
worthy
of Apollo's praise and adoration ~
drifts in the depths
of my dreams.

Welcome to the fine blue sands of "P.I.P.-land!"

I am particularly fond of
the image of solemn twilight
between cloud-enfolded
mountains

and:

“… lunar glow,
shining through the haze
of the rusted gates of Heaven”;


Applause!

I felt very moved by your poetry,
it flowed through my veins,
into the river of my soul,
touching me deeply, filling my
mind with romantic thoughts,
my muse is inspired!

You know you're in love, when you can't fall asleep,because reality is finally better than your dream~Dr.Seuss
