Your hair draping down
the side of your face
established before my eyes
a silhouette
that appeared remote,
yet intimately near.
The closeness of your spirit
as intense
as the distance of your gaze.
Your profile,
perfectly framed
against the moving backdropp
of the city,
like a modern sculpture
with classical overtures
delicately poised
on a pedestal of still air
warmly expressing itself.
The adagio of your face,
its quality and range,
momentarily captured
on the canvas of my eye.
Art beyond my experience!
Art beyond my description!
The depth and focus of your flesh
embracing your spirit that I love;
open and vulnerable,
belying great trust
and total acceptance.
I painted that image in my mind
and molded it into my median,
words.
Now I want to relive it,
again and again.
Captain, the imaginations and images in this poem can be framed. I rate this piece of art a 10. Thanks for the comments on My Universe.
great imagery...........................a masterpiece...................you did the work whivh vinci did by drawing monalisa...........its beauty spills out from your potrait.loved it
The last lines now I want to relive it again and again says it all. Pictures of her lush beauty was imposed upon your mind and emotions. Whenever you want to see her again all you had to do was imagine, imagine and imagine..............! Really good Captain.
You certainly painted her in words to never forget a great poem of the female aurora crafted with skill lovely...regards
(cont.) Adagio..definition #2? ? 1: a musical composition or movement in adagio tempo.2: a ballet duet by a man and woman or a mixed trio displaying difficult feats of balance, lifting, or spinning. it seems you 'should' drop one of the 'p's in backdropp. i think you are seeing a LOT MORE than i would expect to see in a silouette ** but i'm not terribly poetic nor romantic! ! bri :)
if 'all' her hair draped down just one side of her face and you were seeing a silhouette...[i mean a profile, one synonym of silouette]...of the hairy side, you might think: Yikes! a hairy monster. ..............no, scratch what i was just saying! it would not make sense (much) . (cont.)
I painted that image in my mind and molded it into my median, words. Now I want to relive it, again and again........so touching with nice theme. A beautiful poem amazingly shared. Thanks for sharing.
Captain Cur was a nonacademic wonder possessing a command of the color of word combinations that describes the perfect poet.
