Nocturnal Eminence

Warrior to dark's most daunting dreams
savior from thoughts that run too deep
Terrify, not one dares it seems
brings panacea to night's sleep

Beacon for flailing ships asea, 
the Ana of fifty shades Grey
Beauty saving the nocturne beast
keeps subconscious demons at bay

Catches every breath with her smile
as summer's sun, a heart it warms
Intensity not seen awhile
quells the worst of fierce thunderstorms

Her touch, akin to the spring's rain
gently blooming buds to flowers
Still, mental images are vain
ne'er experience her powers

Shan't romance, seduce, love, or hold
hear her voice, feel her aura's beams
Suppose I could, though not so bold
so she must stay within my dreams

Jannie Breedt Date: 1/5/2017 3:34:00 AM Hi Keith, nice to see some talent around here. I appreciate the work you put in here and it turned out a superb piece of art. Login to Reply Keith Osborne Date: 1/5/2017 7:53:00 PM Thank you Jannie. I was hoping that the amount that I toiled with this wouldn't show. I am not sure how to respond to such words as 'talent', 'superb', and 'art' when describing my work. I think that I may have blushed when I read that. Thank you for your compliments.

As for now, I will greet you with the same smile others passed when I first joined the soup. Wishing you and your poetry the best. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here STARTING with me- SKAT :) Drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you wish. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND" Hugs **YNR - SKAT Login to Reply Keith Osborne Date: 9/26/2016 4:14:00 PM Well hello SKAT, thank you for the wonderful greeting. I find myself a little overwhelmed with the site at the moment. I don't even think that I am able to figure out how to become your 'friend', or I would straight away. I am mostly just a dabbler in poetry. What would you like to know about me? I look forward to reading your work, as well as getting to know you SKAT. -peace Keith
