Heart And Soul Of Love Poem by Almedia Knight-Oliver

Heart And Soul Of Love

Rating: 5.0


My love measures fully.
My cup brims. My heart whims.
I hereby bestow my love on you, so
taste and see its goodness!

My rose bush is full with hanging
Bulbs longing to opened
by your strong hands.
They’re yours’ to prune and groom
Hurry before winter bestows gloom

Our love is natural fountain flowing
with love that we dare run dry!
love is neither super natural nor
magical
Remember our first date
The sensation from your touch,
your verbal incantation, and
charm made it come.

But my darling, it matters not
If our story sounds like a fairy tale
Let me hail the tale.
Our love imparts vitality
Yet hard to fathom, I'll even
Leave it to destroy, then
pick up the ruins to love.

A love that imparts vitality Yet hard to fathom…just Leave it to destroy and I’ll pick up the ruins! A beautiful poem, Almedia. Yes, heart and soul both are alive in your true love. The last stanza is just awesome. Regards Naseer

The totality of the emotional palette is wonderful.

Any lover would delight and reflect with some un-worded affection. Poets do have their ways. However, your last para seems to lack some thing you've encoded and finally revealed. Hmm, 'Hunpty Dunpty sat happily on his proverbial loving wall.' Did he fall, or was he pushed, and in ruins, never to be put back together again? 'But my darling, it matters not If our story sounds like a fairy tale' Fantasy, fiction or both. Leave out the last stanza and never think that the ruins will ever be the same again. Yep, i was feeling like the Humpty that you had invited to be lovingly destroyed? ...louie

‘…A love that imparts vitality /Yet hard to fathom…just/Leave it to destroy and /I’ll pick up the ruins! ‘ Indeed both ruins and riches are important …If one only goes for riches and ignoring ruins… it is not ‘zero blemish love’… I think during ‘lows’ in love …is dip-stick test is the parameter of pristine love…enjoyed much… Ms. Nivedita UK
