Ink me in stars

"My soul ceases to stroll ~
      in the ruffled leaves of lotus letters, 
                 whose paper sun
             has never surfed to your seabeds..." 
             
                                ~ quote by the poet. 


Say, I'll be the saviour-spell ...for your champagne stars, sinking in eyes eclipsed by cupid where orphans of daylight, dwell when I am nothing... but pain a puppet princess, dethroned I dream to be your heartbeat ...pearled in peace periwinkles when poetry is Psyche ...freckled in my fogged marrow and petals fall, pulse by pulse ink me feathered, in grape-golds if the hydra hymns forget to breathe my name in silence O' love, I'll bask ~ laced with lores healed in you...like a poem

Dear Hiya, soulful poetess, your vibrant imagery and vivid metaphors animate and awe the poetic page and touch deeply into my heart. Your creative verse stirs the body and soul so eloquently, so elegantly, "petals fall, pulse by pulse" and "O' love, I'll bask ~ laced with lores/healed in you...like a poem" - your poem is sumptuous! Your golden pen spills tender, beautiful, imaginative poetry my sweet poet friend. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

A pretty picture of love from a devotee who seems to feel worthless. That doesn't mean it doesn't work. Relationships -to each his own. I love the metaphors. There is strong emotion and feeling in this poem. It is outstanding for such courage.

A real nice love poem. Due to my limited vocabulary, I usually get a google translation of your poems. Even in simple English the poem is so beautiful. my recommendation for next POTD.
