A Man From Distant Lands

A man from distant lands Celestial musings that you said to me Still whisper gently in my memory Reminding me of our heavenly kiss Acquiescing to a pull of cherubic bliss. Nothing has been the same since then When under the moon we secretly met For a union of our twilight dreams Shining under glitter of stellar streams. Moved by your supernal phrases I opened the door of loving graces Riding with you to ethereal places Singing praises of romantic verses. When moon so soon left evening sky And winds shook up stormy clouds I saw the retreating distant star Urging you to exit before too long. But you stayed put in drenching rain Sheltering my frame without refrain As we walked to a peaceful lake Surrendering to love divinely ornate. I knew you belonged to distant lands When soon you left with moon and the stars, Leaving behind your immortal vibe Permanently bound with a seraphic tie. January 4, 2018 Placed 1st: Strand Pick 7 contest by Brian Strand Placed 5th in Impress Me premiere contest by Skat A

"Moved by your supernal phrases/ I opened the door of loving graces/ Riding with you to ethereal places/ Singing praises of romantic verses." The beauty of these lines with their end rhymes have left me in a spell of admiration ! Lovely poem, dear Vijay !

Hi Vijay, another excellent write from your golden pen. I do love taking such peaceful walks through the imagery of your words. You have painted such a strong, vivid canvas in this write. This is a dream that stays within the mind. The rhyme, the floe, the rhythm, all excellent as always. You create excellence my friend. Have a wonderful Wednesday. Your friend always....Mike.
