Notes About The Poem

For Emile Pinet's One more Monchielle Stanza contest

 

 

Love is a Metaphor

Love is a metaphor,
which glows in vibrant hues.
An abstract masterpiece
from Da Vinci's palette,
easing souls to feel peace.

Love is a metaphor.
A guiding moon compass
with spotlights at midnight.
Showing how lovers meet,
then shine in diamond light.

Love is a metaphor.
Portrayed through Rumi's verse.
With words that make you think,
how will your sweetheart's lips,
kiss you like quill and ink

Love is a metaphor.
Simple to comprehend.
When conduct connects speech,
words bloom from heart to tongue.
Romance is what you preach.

Indeed love is a metaphor. Your refrain is so captivating. The sensuous descriptions add a rare sheen to the poem. Your fondness for Rumi is so evident in many of your poems. "Love is a metaphor. A guiding moon compass with spotlights at midnight". Love is light in the darkness and guides us. Beautiful poem on love and romance.

You poetry on Love is as sweet, as enchanting and as mysterious as Love! One falls in love and could not put in words what meets that feeling! Only a poet of your artistry and grandeur is able to touch with an adept quill the essence of Love! Great poetry, Silent One! God bless you. Best regards.

Love is abstract, not tangible yet emotionally felt and used by every human being on this earth, excluding the small percentage who can't feel this emotion and are revengeful. Love is a Metaphor and what makes the world go around and the heart drawn shape is a symbol that represents being in love. What a beautiful poem Silent One my friend. Hugs and blessings Jennifer.
