Bronte Inspiration Part 2 By Jadazzle: Jan Allison and Darren Watson

TO FULLY UNDERSTAND THIS POEM PLEASE READ 
BRONTE INSPIRATION - COLLABORATION BETWEEN JAN ALLISON AND DARREN WATSON


Our courtship it continues at a gentle pace
Every time I see him my heart begins to race
Long walks in the country, late evenings by the fire
I really have discovered he is my hearts desire
Kisses in the moonlight, holding hands by candlelight
When I go to bed it’s him I dream of every night
But for now we kiss goodnight by the bedroom door
He respects my wishes that I want to remain pure
 
In the Parsonage Where the Bronte sisters slept
I fall to one knee and my promise is kept
The faded portraits seem to smile
Urging her to keep me waiting for a while
A wink from Emily, A grin from Anne
Charlotte's look tells me this is part of the plan
Waiting for the answer I feel my nerves dance
Adding to the feeling we are part of a Bronte romance. 
 
We arrange a small wedding but there is no great haste
Until we are betrothed I am determined to remain chaste
My dress is made of beautiful silk and is the purest white
My groom he looks so handsome, he is my heart’s delight
At the altar like Jane and Rochester we stand side by side
This time there are no hitches, and soon I am his bride
We hold a small reception back at Wildfell Hall
Tonight for the first time into bed together we will fall

I hear the voice of my beloved
In my ear she seemed to say
Oh be patient if thou lov'st me
The power of love, The Bronte way
My ardour is inflamed by passions longing
But I must earn her virgin sacrifice
Soon she knows the feeling of being loved and belonging
For my bride only romantic perfection will suffice.

Paul Callus April 20, 2014 at 3:00 PM Hi Jan! The first part was very good; now we get the follow-up which builds on it, effortlessly. Soon you'll be able to tackle most of the English classics and then publish them in a JaDazzle anthology :) // paul Jan Allison April 20, 2014 at 3:03 PM So enjoyed working on these with Darren - verse by verse with no alteration - quite amazing for people who have never and probably will never meet. Are working on more poems together as and when other commitments allow. You never know part 3 may appear one day lol Hugs Jan x

Jared Pickett April 19, 2014 at 8:08 AM First time reading poetry from JaDazzle, I love it. I am thrilled that my contest inspired such an amazing friendship full of so much poetic potential!! Well written my friends!!:JP) Jan Allison April 19, 2014 at 9:48 AM Jared - see what your contest has done to us! There is also part 1 Bronte Inspiration - Bronte Inspiration 2 followed as a natural progression, also an acrostic called 'chaste and chased' which follows on from comments on Bronte 1 and 'Orient Express' which was the poem I considered swapping to go in your contest - not sure if you would have placed that so highly - would love your comments on it. Truly indebted to you - when i am better we will write together. Hugs Jan xx
