Still in Love with You | Debra Sasak Ross
Moonlight dances like gold
Across my field of dreams.
Some past.
Some blue.
Some forgotten.
Some new.
They all have one thing in common,
I’m still in love with you.
love poems
Love Me My Love | Laljee Verma
My eyes search someone in the crowd
Vision has dimmed but not the hope
Waiting for the face my soul searches
To relish the serene beauty, which
Springs the life in me!
Morning wakes me with golden hands
The blue sea churns some tunes
Cuckoos sing sweet melodies
Makes me feel romantic and young!
My dreams shatter why? I know not
Why nights are not a bit longer
I see you in the mirror of my dreams
And lament when the mirror shatters!
I always felt you beside me
In my joyous moments, and in my grief
In my thoughts and in my daydreams
You were always there as a part of my soul!
Love me, my love, before shadows
Disappear with heralding morn’
In a sultry summer casting a gloom!
Sit on the cold rock by the stream
And drown in the serenading music
Drops, falling from the wet leaves
Awakens dreams that you are here
Listen to the song of the ocean blue
And the lovely tunes nature plays!
Love me, darling, endlessly,
Dance with me in the golden hue
The golden horse with the golden mane
Has been waiting for us, did you know?
Reflections of the Man | Kenneth Vincent Walker
I was afraid of my father,
Though he never gave me
Any reason to be afraid.
I respected my father for the
Many sacrifices that he made.
I disobeyed my father and his
Love for me never swayed.
I buried my father who speaks
To me from beyond the grave.
I am my father in oh so many
Truly unconventional ways.
I see my father’s reflection in
The mirror each and every day
As he remains unchanged.
Vows | JayM
For promises that grow
In marshes,
To a pristine river to flow,
Such are the ones
We hope to believe,
To drown in, of disbelief,
Deep below.
There prevails the dawn
Hope
To herald a dusk
Of darkness beyond,
A whisper from therein,
“Rise, wise; arise,”
Look for a promise,
In the dead of the night.
Still your heart; Stay your mind
Unto your soul, be kind
Promises to the wind,
May well be, are never pinned
Love is right, calm the whirlwind…
A Farewell Message | Tianyu
Always remind myself
that I can’t fall in love with you.
But I don’t know when.
I’m already in love with you so.
We are sure of each other.
If one of you and I shed tears,
That represents the reluctance between you and me too.
People who don’t understand our feelings,
They also thought
every line what I wrote was a lie I do.
Now I miss you.
Speak to you in my voice,
Each of these languages has a feeling of love for you.
Vacancy and Ice | Jenny Middleton
Your questions brood over me
like clouds pregnant with snow
lolling recklessly across
a bitter sky.
and my words are hungry as a winter
grieving a skull pent cage
battering the salty barred lids of my eyes
with blunted blades fighting…
how quickly this expanse, this chisel
of vacancy and ice
has spiralled, dividing my body and mind
these halves of me are all
I dare
to trust your vagrant snow-blind touch with.
dawn seems distant in this endless anaemic night
that you insist should be glutted
with your silky tattooed sentences.
You seem not to see
them circle and pounce like uneasy vultures
at the parameters of each others meaning
and while these circuit my sieged mind
I can offer only my lips
alone in answer
but not their breath and voice.
Sonnet: Marriage (Inspired by Rossetti’s Painting of Jane Burden) | Jenny Middleton
It was like the sweep of land seen from ships
Coursing the misted bay and calling through the night
Like safety all at once spilling from our lips
And carrying us ashore, beaten by light
And salt bitten tides; the murmured orisons
Of promises. Whispered and held in hand.
Forbidding and tempting purple as damsons
Encrypting love to coded lore to hold
And ever have. Sold as pomegranate seeds
And pink jewelled life until death splits even bold
Stateless minds beyond and all knowledge bleeds
And prowls to devour this harboured hold,
This plaited harvest ring; this wedded band.
This new love that wraps us whole. This new land.
