~Torch Not My Heart~ Whispers... with a silver tounge you pierce my heart with words of love you touch silken phrases slide as honey on lips Words drip as raindrops on petals caress a candle burns a shared flame melting hearts as molten gold fused as one, two souls seethe no voice to take this in my hands Just torch not my heart BloomingRose |

BloomingRose~ Oh ! This is lovely. I was instantly reminded of the era of musical perfection of the 'torch singers' of their day. Those silken voices that sang out in the blues of the night could capture the 'flame in each and every note. Oh, now you've sent me on a search. Thank you. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Daniel~ Thank you much. ![]() Mark~ Thanks for the nice reply. JM~ True, words in a poem are sometimes from things we may hear from a song, or other things that inspire the imagination. They are fun just the same, wherever they come from. Thanks Tracie~ Thanks ![]() Marge~ You hit the nail on the head. This one was inspired by a song. I listen to music when I write so sometimes it happens like that. Thanks. |

You have managed to speak the whole tale in just a few short verses... great job ![]() Strive for higher levels, if they seem out of reach... Grow, and they will get closer. |
