Eileen Manassian Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

Collaborator Callus

Passion pulses in his lines
Awe and wonder in his rhymes
Undressed is each wanton dream
Love's triumph: the greatest theme!

Cherub's voice he brings to chime
All his words etched in sublime!
Light and luscious- what a treat!
Lilting cadence: rhythmic, sweet
Ultimate the revelry
Since Paul writes for you and me

Appassionata (Paul's name for me)

Paul writes in many different genres, but my favorite of his writes are his passionate ones. Check out his awesome win in FJ's Nighttime Musings contest. Simply elegant....sensually sweet. I have collaborated five times with Paul. He'll send me a few lines that he knows I can build on and off we go. :) Thank you, Paul, for sending me some lines when my muse has deserted me. I appreciate your friendship. Can't wait to see you in Malta in a few months. Blessings...
