Love is a swooshing whirlpool, swirling, twirling and whirling - intensifying porcelain emotions. Floating helplessly, like bubbles in a tepid breeze. There are still flashbacks an unforgettable memory, where poets, painters and musicians, rushed to liberate their excited muses. Her diamond droplet eyes dazzled, embellishing her emerald dress. A vision of clarity, curing sadness. A solution to end solitude. An unsung song, an unheard poem, an unfinished masterpiece. Who's pastels and lyrics were hidden deep within my heart. Ivory piano keys, craving hands sought to touch. Poised like a pristine soulful harp - waiting to be stroked by composed, elegant enchanted fingertips. A persona delicately designed in an angelic silhouette. Radiant innocence, illuminating through eyes manifesting heavenly hues. Many infatuated suitors, hungered to taste the last sip from her untouched chalice. Their tongues remained blowing embers. In the backdrop of cupidity, metaphorical arrow magnetised her bow. Succulence of her lips, now forever moisten, tenderness of her chest, endlessly soothes. The Silent One 19 August 2020

"A persona delicately designed in an angelic silhouette. Radiant innocence, illuminating through eyes manifesting heavenly hues." -this goes above and beyond poetry of the old masters in its exquisiteness, Silent One.

This is unbelievably beautiful, a beauty in both picture and poem, your creative description of this maiden culminates with a true backdrop of cupidity. 'Many infatuated suitors, hungered to taste the last sip from her untouched chalice.' I will always remain in awe of your poems my friend. Blessings and hugs, Jennifer.
