It was through the gate Of ceaseless venture Where we first met On that fate and timeless night You, from your land of dawning where saints of roses nestle betwixt the harborage of bays mist and unheard grapevines, that meet the sea Let us engage among the winds of ‘morrows kiss where thickets of conceivings wallow through sweet dreams of everlast Come with me my dear and flame my wick of candles night you, my lost wind of deathless eyes, You, my muse of heavens creaking gate Share with me our bite of hope As I slowly lick the wounds of your past and heal of always Your days to be Spread your light upon river’s mouth and hold firm veins within your open and shadowed glory Satiate your rich longing as I criss cross gushing landscapes Burrowing into those secret sounds and untying the skintight knot of solitude You are the song and plants and waves, of shouts and foam And broken statues of burnt water And yet, if you still can not see between the fondness that you hold so entirely Listen to the voice inside Your heart will somehow, let you know And so Please Don’t read into my words Or pages filled of light Anything Except for you, The love I have, this night Freedom of expression is our, write. |

Richy This was an unequaled love poem. Your line structure as always was beautiful. The way you packed the imagery of nature made for a vivid read. Thanks sharyn |

Rich, I read a great deal into your creative writes. To me they are filled with sensuality and innuendo ~ both metaphorically and literally! You are a master weaver! In the still of the night... Linda |

Hi Richy~ Newbie here. Looked towards the bottom of the page to choose my first read and found you! Interesting word choices made me pay close attention. Bordering on erotic. Seducing read, Richy. ~H |
