James Peranteau Poet Free verse

Libertine's Riddle

.


                          Purling
      As the lotus 'mongst the waft top 
                            wet

                       Arciforming
       With the pretty colorful rainbow
                            bent

                        Infiltrating
  Deeply the sinews whence mine I found
                            mirth

                          Noticing
Every breathe flaunting the passion of mine
                           colleen

                          Sweating
                   Whilst in hern depth
                           roaring





*Libertine: 14th century < Latin libertinus< libertus "somebody freed from
slavery" < liber "free" ;)

Andrea Dietrich January 28, 2017 at 7:10 PM James, you are right. Your theme is generally oft the same!! Thanks for explaining about colleen!!

Andrea Dietrich January 12, 2017 at 8:13 PM Yes, it is like a riddle for me, James. I liked verse four the best. Is it about a girl named Colleen?
