Eileen Queen of the Romantic Pen

Romantic dreams flowing from her pen. From her imagination to the page. Choose your lover, re-live the dream again. Perhaps she is a warrior or a sage. Her creativity has no end. From her imagination to the page. Be prepared to have your mind bend. You'll experience both pleasure and pain. Her creativity has no end. She'll show you sunshine soak you in rain. Let you drink from a lovers fountain. You'll experience both pleasure and pain. She will lead you to the highest mountain. Causing your heart to ache with wanting You'll experience both pleasure and pain Her images are real and haunting Romantic dreams flowing from her pen. Causing your heart to ache with wanting Choose your lover, re-live the dream again. Dedicated to Eileen Manassian, the true Queen of the Romantic Pen. Written August 15th 2013, modified today as I noticed I broke from form. Entered into Silent One's "Tibute" Contest.

Absolutely beautiful. It's wonderful to see how other poets inspire others here on PS. I firmly believe that's what it is all about here. How we make each other think & feel inside. It's so vital.

Hmmm...your writing is getting better and better. "Perhaps she is a warrior or a sage. Her creativity has no end. From her imagination to the page" A very nice verse. Don't get too lost in the romantic world... stay in touch with reality. Beautiful poem.

Thanks Christine, no worries I have many worlds to explore.

I saw the title, and hoped against hope...(lots of smiley faces!) A word gift is, to me, the most precious kind. 3 reasons (of the many) that make this a poem I will print out and treasure: 1) It's a BEAUTIFUL TERZANELLE gift by my mentor. 2) It validates my work as a poetess which at times I doubt 3) The particular choice of words uplift now when I need encouragement. Richard, though I'm enamored by words, at times like these I find them useless. Just..THANK YOU..from the bottom of my heart.
