Sophia Valentina Poet Rhyme

Jealous Jupiter

Through endless, vast, eternal space
there hangs my most omniscient orb.
So far a dark and lonely place, 
no sunlight to absorb…
just as my dark and lonely soul, 
forever unexplored.

My many moons of sordid glow,
as all my suitors orbit slow –
but Titan’s love I longed for so,
forever mine ignored…
and left this dark and bloody spot –
forever to abhor.



*A comparison between a covetous, lonely love and that of Jupiter for Saturn's Titan :).

Scott Thirtyseven March 6, 2014 at 2:07 AM I've been away from your words too long. This is a magnificent poem, the depths, moods, and yearning. Love it. Sophia Valentina March 11, 2014 at 4:38 PM Thank you Scott! So nice to hear from you again.

Just That Archaic Poet February 17, 2014 at 6:08 PM You've never failed to move me with your words and verse. I remember this one. Beautiful as always. And Mark is a terrific guy :)

Mark Peterson February 16, 2014 at 5:43 PM Sophia, rather overwhelming to be honored in this fashion. How deep and cryptic your "dark and lonely soul, forever unexplored." A most pleasant blend of science and myth. Thank you. Just That Archaic Poet February 17, 2014 at 6:09 PM I told you if you liked my stuff, hers is the shizznit, as the kids say lol . You deserved it, our beloved stargazer ;)
