Linda Alice Fowler Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

In collaboration with Joanna Daniel.

A Poet's Crush Collaboration

But by grace do I shadow your form
from each darkened night to bright-lit morn.
You're silvery-white in my life's storm
hosting shivery thoughts yet unborn.

Would that my pen divine such meaning,
enflame fiery feelings unbidden
that stun me dumb at their convening.
My emotions revealed, unhidden.

Yet my disguise is opaque it seems.
You cross a transcendental realm –
unspoken vesper in sacral dreams
that never attains its lofty helm.

Someday, I know you will understand
my passionate affection for you -
How my heart bleeds with tender demand,
unformed entanglement to pursue!

My ink is flowing hoping to charm,
My poem an aphrodisiac.
Unwritten rhymes planning to disarm
and attract you to my love lilac.

Though you're beyond my bewitching reach,
I devote this unsung ode to us.
My dear, with unsaid words I beseech -
Let's join our hearts without further fuss.

Duke Beaufort June 20, 2024 at 1:38 PM Linda, It might be nice if we could enthrall another to love us. It's hard for me to say really....we do want certain affections, but sometimes they just don't materialize. That doesn't stop us from thinking about it. Your poetry collaboration and poem itself is quite charming. Linda Alice Fowler July 13, 2024 at 3:09 PM I really appreciate your comments Duke. I agree with you. And if those affections do materialize, they are not always as one thinks they will be. Penning seems so much easier than conversing - but one's meaning can be skewed by misplacing a comma. Such dilemma! Thank you for your kind comments Duke. :)
