Notes About The Poem

Between Faraway Distance Is the Poet and I

BETWEEN FARAWAY DISTANCE is THE POET and I Treacherous stretches mounds of greens feed fresh the mind. . . never ever upon a spangled heavens or in seagulls’ crash - hush, nor on echoed notes of tweeting nightingales did I hear; feel. I find the need to stop, steadily listen to the drumbeating of my heart. Vivid is the touch of class brushed unto words, phrases and lines paraded to thousand eyes to be read; critiqued or appreciated. Not the lyrics, not the tones, not ev'n verses nor blues could conceal. His pens, the aroma of spring flowers, sweet! Drawing grins to lips: his style, maybe common to some but to me: truly, one of a kind. Speaking softly to my nerves, tickling senses to consider he. . . Our panache oppose however in seeking depths likeness bursts, boundless in abandon from fountain of muse, more than amuse. Not a sonnet, not a kyrielle, not even a haiku nor a tanka could hide. Unstoppable, the poet and I, our thoughts and feelings fused. Twined in our inks displayed not only a blooming romance hue. Yes, between us is a faraway distance, so flagrant - challenging intentions if sincere or not, but shared portions of rhymes, talks and times won; serving as shapers, enriching our vows. Not long, the poet and I is wearing golden rings. Written January 01, 017 (09:55 am)

Hi Olive, the intertwining passion and sensual build up is well attained in the latter part. The first part is a distraction from the theme I think. A challenging read but the poetic rush of the muse makes it a sublime read

Wow Arthur! This poem is like watching a Shakesperian (sp?) play. So dramatic and tragic. Love can save us or kill us, I know. Yet we survive to dream and love again. Just love your expressive pen...and heart. Carole

So sorry Olive. Yes, the comment was a mistake...and I have no idea how my comment to Arthur wound up on your page. However, upon reading your poem here, I must say I enjoyed the romance of it very much. Carole Duet

Your poem is like a scene from a Shaksperian (sp?) play. Dramatic and deep. Love can save or kill us. Wonderful and terrible at the same time is this poem, Arthur.
