Notes About The Poem
Young female jazz singer singing with retro mic - Portrait...Captivated by her musical voice..Just writing not based on truth..Sara

Spellbinding Love

Starry-eyed young lady with spellbinding
Voice skillfully drew him in
Spirited in nature with love abounding
He longed to touch her silken skin

Slowly the tangled love web she did spin
Sunny disposition as bright as sunny day
Shimmering in moonlight she danced to him
Smoldering emotions she held at bay

Smart is she, sophisticated, and a lady
Superb talents, calm, and steadfast
He found that she was supportive ready
Definitely one who is an enthusiast

Sweet and charming joyful to brim
Surprising that she won him with a hymn

well, it's nice to imagine it's more fact than fiction!! and don't worry if you didn't get the "slang" of that strange poem I wrote.I was making fun of poetry that I find strange. I don't like that kind and that's why I did it that way for Deb's "something different" contest. (also, I am against non-capitalization in most poetry).

Smile ˜ Very sweet this thought of such an alluring beauty ˜ My dear beautiful Sara ˜ Spellbinding can surely be the mirrored truth for many a man & woman alike ˜ Yet, statistics do reveal that the number one factor within the sky rocketing divorce rates in the world & especially America today; given the laws beneficail openings unto its doors ˜ Is the revelations found within one anothers imperfect characters ˜ Leading unto thousands upon thousands of sperations during the first and afore the first five years of so called sacred unions? ˜ Spellbinding indeed ˜ My love to You always, John!:) ˜
