You're desires for this thread are well stated and will be respected (by me). If I feel a need to be catty about something I'll do it elsewhere. I look forward to some inspired posts

[Eulalia]

Well, it's a while since I've posted any poems,
Messaline's lovely picture and words encouraged me to look out some of my little love-poems
in the forms of Japanese haiku or Chinese yung wu ('short poems on objects):

Anticipation​

Grey eyes half-open,​

Lips, a door left lightly ajar​

Expecting a guest.​

​

Dawn​

Still dark. One bird sings.​

Gently fingers touch your breast.​

Invading your dream.​

Kimono​

White-petalled flower​

Enfolding your nectaries​

Till you feel the bee.​

Longing for me​

White gauze parts, to show​

Your slender waist. Your belt’s loose​

With longing for me.​

Slip off your clothes!​

The guttering flame now dies,​

Now flares again. There’s light enough​

To slip off your clothes!​

Your hair on the pillow​

Breeze-rippled waters,​

Isle in a light-rimmed stream​

Your hair on the pillow.​

The dragon’s tongue​

The sharp moon slides west,​

Your sweat’s like orchid-oil. Don’t flinch​

From the dragon’s tongue!​

 

[messaline]

Thanks very much Eulalia.
I mostly like "Dawn" and "your hair on the pillow"... Dreaming....
These poems are wonderful : I knew them and I'm in enchantment in front of their conciseness !

Very nice, I like this picture as well, and the poem fits nicely: Often "less is more", here depicted beautifully!

 

[Deiselad]

Love this idea, look forward to following it, I may even dip my toes in occasionally.

 

[LittleSiss]

I may be borrowing the style but it feels right. (and it's the thought that counts).

I'm NO poet, and don't I Know it! "Nuff said!"

A child and a fool in one​

So sure I could need no one​

My heart always on the run to nowhere​

Now as you're holding me​

My heart is reminding me​

That now I could never be without you​

​

But how can our love succeed​

A miracle is what we need​

And so I appeal to you​

To keep me suspended in time with you​

Don't let this moment die​

I get a feeling when I'm with you​

None of the rules apply​

But I know for certain​

Goodbye is a crime​

So love if you need me​

Suspend me in time​

​

Wasted the time away​

Holding our love at bay​

Now I can't last a day without you​

Your smile is a thrill to see​

Eyes hold me tenderly​

They'll shine in my memory forever​

​

But how can our love succeed​

A miracle is what we need​

And so I appeal to you​

To keep me suspended in time with you​

Don't let this moment die​

​

What is she dreaming....? Her tension tells a story!

 

[messaline]

...To keep me suspended in time with you​

Don't let this moment die​

'suspended in time'...​

I hope that...Judith​

Thanks Tree ​
