Gershon Wolf Poet Monorhyme

Love's Mirror

Sky tinged with phosphorescence
  Moon pale, convalescent
    Incandescent lunar crescent

Adolescent lips meet in acquiescence
  Hopes blaze, steamy flourescence
    Hush! thy quiescent quintessence

Shy effervescence, her backdrop incalescence
  Tumescence lurks too, fraught essence
    In Love's Mirror of Evanescence

Lyric Man July 9, 2018 at 7:14 PM Hey Gershon.. Another day, another airport. So how do I fight the long sit and wait? Your incredible write of course! You made my delay sing!! Come see me if you get a chance.. I'm releasing a secret! Gershon Wolf July 9, 2018 at 7:43 PM Well, thank you, my friend! Best wishes, Gershon

Janice Canerdy July 9, 2018 at 5:40 PM What a beautiful poem! It makes me think of my granddaughter--not dating, but soon will be! Scary times! :-) Janice Gershon Wolf July 9, 2018 at 7:43 PM Thank you, Janice... I've changed the wording a bit to improve the poem...and I don't mean to scare you, but you might find it a bit more perilous in regards to your granddaughter. Best wishes, gw

Freddie Robinson Jr. July 9, 2018 at 11:18 AM Very cool poem, Gershon. Evanescence, eh. Gotta look that one up. Trip-hop poetry w/such rad lines ... Hopes blaze, steamy fluorescence. Spot-on poetry. Love and smiles always. Gershon Wolf July 9, 2018 at 1:40 PM FRJ, thank you so much for weighing in on this one! ~ Gershon
