In Love

In love is when The snows of winter vaporise, And buds appear, When veils ascend from jaded eyes And they clear, When the heart deliciously surges, And defibrilates, And the rush of tender urges Intoxicates. In love is when The breath of autumn whispers low, And fires burn, When in promises of fresher snow Leaves fall and turn, When the saddest pang of losing Begs exquisite pain When the things beyond one’s choosing See it go again. NOTE: I'm still alive. Been busy with my ongoing music project, which saw me turn to songwriting and amateur - very amateur - music video production, which can be checked out on the link below if anyone has a mind to. This new piece marks a tentative return to poetry. More to follow, perhaps. POP ART! http://www.myspace.com/thewatercolours
