Karen Jones Poet Free verse

Romance is a Dance

Ruby romance her with a silver stanza
Of purple passionate verses
Like you desire her hips her lips
To love you in entirety

Your heart mahogany and though human
Possesses flowers of love and powers above
Any green money dreams though 
Money is a necessary evil 
You can not really buy people

You may purchase their greed
But that’s not really what you need
You deserve authenticity’s amethyst admiration 
Not a cheap purchased salutation 

But don’t give and not receive 
Don’t ask and yet never be giving

Courting her should be a dance
Whether waltz hip hop country or freelance
Will you feel and know instinctively 
Where to put your hands
Mating celebrating selection is romance

Victor Buhagiar July 14, 2024 at 11:36 AM Thank you for reading my elegy. I appreciate it. I am not writing much either because the heat is too much and everyone seems on holiday. Keep strong. Love your poem. I used to dance a lot in my youth. Now I'm old. No hip hop for me. Hugs. Karen Jones July 14, 2024 at 11:49 AM I’m old too but in your heart you can still dance! Thanks for the love hugs Victor!

Eileen Manassian July 12, 2024 at 7:41 AM Lovely dance here. I especially liked the 3rd strand with the superb use of alliteration. Sage advice. Thanks for your visit to my page. Karen Jones July 12, 2024 at 8:14 AM Was my pleasure to visit and thanks Eileen.

Hilda Greenhough July 12, 2024 at 7:22 AM I like this. It has heed to the reader. Poor self esteem causes some people to grovel in romance, I believe. Life remains always vulnerable. Karen Jones July 12, 2024 at 8:13 AM Good point but I feel attacked hahaha joke! Hugs thanks for liking!
