Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser Poet Quintain (English)

Notes About The Poem

Inspired by I Corinthians 13:1-3 and Love itself.. :)!

B-R-E-A-T-H - of - L-O-V-E

B-R-E-A-T-H -  OF -  L-O-V-E


Summer sun or winter freeze pulls heartstrings in trapeze. . .
Cotton soft to gnarled callus vows have thread along my way
embroidering ribbon actions to pliant swings of reactions
like a darting fish thrilled to catch a passer-by knees.
Two pairs of eye sew webs to bridge affection display,

pines teeming green crown my arrested heart--
tachycardic I am... each time I hear your sound.
Has breath of love tickled my nerves to interaction?
Like a bee I'm drawn to your sweet ambiance 'round
hoping by miracle it will birth me a fresh start.

Scents that streams from bulbs swirl on wafting wind--
Ah! They all fell to shame for your breath of love tames.
Once a rebel soul that long been thriving for satisfaction 
with breath of love that resuscitates, I mend my flame
channeling muse to stroke the peak density of mind.

Slender February breeze taunt my fingers
to type rhymes that shy edge of reason.
Eternally plunge in surrender
I-- filled with breath of love ships my horizons
to script stories in shades that lingers. . .

James Fraser February 7, 2015 at 2:00 PM The wonderful thing about the Soup is the enhancement of Poets whose English is second to them. Be Filipino, Swedish, Argentinian, etc, I can't write in their language, but they in mine. To feel inferior is justified. This en-captures me more to invest my thoughts and comments relating to whom's work. The last line is a WOW, and I'm lost for words describing this poem of yours, hugs, James xx Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser February 9, 2015 at 7:33 AM I really thank the sponsors for inspiring me to think and learn more.. :)! and most of all i thank your for the readers, commentors and critics.. :)! Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser February 9, 2015 at 7:32 AM Thanks much James.. :) Indeed, poetrysoup for me is a good learning ground: poetry wise, poetical devices, types.. my vocabulary improve also: deep and it widen.. :)
