A Question of Love Loves promenades towards emptiness longing is a void darkness of a million universes where mythical black holes chant of timeless desires Yearning for carnal eternity where candles never die Two of us never met oceans apart gasping for affections in different times winds may have swept this way or that never seen Wind and candle lie in death so lost in emptiness |

The Painting of Desire
I view the art you so vividly display I am moved in the most sensual of ways You set me to dream of passions edge The caress of your promise so lovingly pledged I gaze at the art and dream of the lover Wishing only we could be uncovers Such spiritually erotic whims you do thread I confess I will soon forget all poetry read I will embrace the poetess and take her to my bed |

May I Caress Your Heart
Alone, in Paris The flowers sing Le jardin du Luxembourg I look at all the pretty ladies Which one of them pray tell Is you The one who wishes for that sweet caress The one whose painting hangs on the wall The one who knows beauty runs deeper Than a river running to kiss the oceans swell The grandest of castles with candles dim There in the damp night would bonds begin If only you would listen to my whispers deep Forgiving the scars I have suffered As in the night I have wept Napoleon marched forth across great lands I the knight have lesser demands If only you, whoever you are Would take hold of me As we dance away our eternities Sur le pont de Avignon Where the river flows Like poetry

I Touch Your Existence
I wish With every beat of my heart I could hear you whisper My desires are your desires Your dreams sing to my every wish The sweet dew of honey That flows between our souls The softness of your touch The fears of your dreams I can be your forbidden fruit Let me hold you In the bond of eternity Let me be your final breath As your love is my only hope That love exists at all June 2013 |

Spring Waltz
Flowers
Fragrances and bouquets
Morning dewdrops
The rising sun
Throwing promises
As Gaiety sings
Young lovers kissing
As the rose buds bloom
Rain drops caressing
Memories floating
Past and present meld
In the coming of spring
A butterfly
Plays with my strings
Éclairs to savor
As eyes kiss eyes
I take hold of you
Dear spring
We twirl you and I
Young and old
Musical chairs
Lovers wed and bed
I smile at the sweet scent
Cane in hand
Off I go
A blind man
Who waltzes in the spring
Flowers
Fragrances and bouquets
Morning dewdrops
The rising sun
Throwing promises
As Gaiety sings
Young lovers kissing
As the rose buds bloom
Rain drops caressing
Memories floating
Past and present meld
In the coming of spring
A butterfly
Plays with my strings
Éclairs to savor
As eyes kiss eyes
I take hold of you
Dear spring
We twirl you and I
Young and old
Musical chairs
Lovers wed and bed
I smile at the sweet scent
Cane in hand
Off I go
A blind man
Who waltzes in the spring

Dance of the Knights
|
Mystery shrouds the star lit night
As lovers exposed to evening delights In masks we dance, we all go around Who is who, do we really know? Who is Romeo and who is to die? Ladies in waiting, do their waltz As the Lady of the evening bathes at dusk Champagne glasses in pink do reflect All the Shakespeare penned, indirect For its he that said we love to decept Young lovers will hold onto devotions Choose between Montague and Capulet For lances of blood forever thrust Into the loser of Williams tales Mademoiselle is saddened by wilted rose She smashes to pieces all her dreams The waltz of knights and lovers will end She had to choose between Montague and Capulet She chose first the arrow, for hearts don’t mend Shakespeare wins yet once more For with my saber, I drank champagne And read this tale yet once again! Montague and Capulet on horses rode As Sergei pondered and composed Juliette just shed her tears Dancing Knights have no fear The ballet of love makes one shake As the Knight lances his final spear The irony of classic tales Old stories we hold so dear |

Where to begin! Well although this seems somewhat about Romeo and Juliette, its actually based on a song, that well its also a muse on Romeo and Juliette. The song/artist is Alizée - Mademoiselle Juliette
Although Montagues and Capulets are characters in Shakespeare’s story, "Montagues and Capulets", is also known as "Dance of the Knights", a work of classical music written by Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev for his 1935 ballet Romeo and Juliet. Later, he wrote versions for both orchestra and piano. Thus the Title of the poem, and the mention of Sergei in the poem.
