For I Shall Love Thee






                 ~~ For I Shall Love Thee~ 

                    when the butterfly 
                    kisses the gold sunflower …
                    yes…even in eternity
                    blessed and divinely free…
                    I shall indeed smile
                    no fractious earth to see

                    nor prizes to chase
                    just sweet acceptance…
                    the best, you and I
                    our lives complete…
                    God’s blessed fruit to eat 
                    our smiles, the stars…


                  * my own form of a poem”
                            Panagiota

Whatever the form, I love what you wrote, Pangie! It came out so naturally, and that is the way poetry is born. Best regards & blessings are sent your way, my friend // paul

Dear Paul, you must know how I much I admire your work and your outstanding humility! An absolute sign of greatness in people I admire. The form is pure Panagiota. Not struggling…just floating with the ease of a bitterly …Golly, Paul, it felt soo good!Being myself and none other; formless in a way, and ecstatically free. Sending you sweetness and light…Pangie…

So beautiful! "when the butterfly kisses the gold sunflower" Well, as you know I favor free verse, so this one has special appeal to me. Very lovely!

Prince De Mino. This is my third time trying to post to you…I hope my reply stays this time. Yes I know you like free verse. This has rhyme in it, and poets have styles of their own. I did not like using “I don’t know.” I wish there were a form called “.Personal Choice.” I have no intention of creating a new form, credited to me. No, thanks. I am experimenting. Hope it’s cooler there than here! Sizzling Panagiotaxx

Aww, PS, Queen of today’s POTD… I am with you on this one. I am into serenity! For decades I tried to prove myself worthy. Seems so odd now! I don’t want to compete in poetry. Just create a work and beauty, and yes, when important to me, controversial!-) Thank you. Panagiota xx

Charles, a big hello! (and hugs)Yes it has form..rhyme included. When I see you comment~I think of Spumoni and Chianti. Based on an old poem of mine you liked. Thank you for swinging by! I have an oddball cold so have not been commenting nor reading much. Got over my Broken leg and surgery and five months of physical therapy. 100 degrees in CA! Panagiota xxx
