Debbie Guzzi Poet Verse

Tender Years

Your brown eyes speak 
bright laughter has etched your fair face
Your brown eyes speak
their bright allure is your mystique 
with hands which hold such solemn grace
Oh I still long for your embrace
Your brown eyes speak

We breath in awe
for our journey's just begun now
We breathe in awe
for each distilled memory's raw
each ripe thought rewound, an old vow
hand in hand our beliefs avowed
We breath in awe

New Beginnings
for souls with eyes of brown and gray
New Beginnings
bodiless and ever singing
rise unbound, released, of earth's cliche
a higher calling to convey
New Beginnings


*Form a Rondelet string.

Heather Ober December 11, 2012 at 12:17 PM Oh, wow, this one is simply wonderful. I LOVE the last three lines, especially "rise unbound, released, of earth's cliche." You have such a way with words!

Leonard Taormina December 10, 2012 at 5:11 PM Debbie I wish I were better equipped to express my thoughts about this write but I'm not. However the feelings of it make me think of this as righteous and maybe even about the road to it.

David Williams December 10, 2012 at 4:14 AM Debbie, now I really like the theme you chose here and it just flows off the tongue....David

Vicky Tsiluma December 9, 2012 at 12:09 PM Amazing write Debbie! Rondelet string is definitely a form to try out. Just lovely! Vicky Tsiluma December 9, 2012 at 12:13 PM Debbie in your blog you talked about Rondelet, and now you're mentioning Rondelet string, I get the gist but does the latter have a particular no. to adhere to?

Jon A Cavanaugh December 9, 2012 at 7:40 AM Beautifully written poem! Well done.

Jack Horne December 9, 2012 at 6:58 AM lovely rondelets here, Debs. Congrats on all your wins too, my friend. So glad to see you're a fellow Wordsworth fan : )

Eileen Manassian December 8, 2012 at 12:28 PM This poem is so beautifully penned, Debbie. We breath in awe....there is so much to be awed about....You captured it so well. Hugs!

Richard Lamoureux December 8, 2012 at 7:06 AM I like your style Debbie, beautiful poem.

Andrea Dietrich December 7, 2012 at 11:16 PM I love how this "feels" in the rondelet style. Very pretty, Debs. (breath is the noun, I think you mean the verb breathe). thanks for seeing some of my old haiku sets. You can notice how I love personification. Right or wrong, oh well. let me go elsewhere to tell you something.

Constance La France December 7, 2012 at 1:12 PM Debbie, just outstanding in every way, I like this form Rondelet String, I must give it a try. Well done. Constance

The Situation December 6, 2012 at 10:05 PM A higher calling. That is the key for survival. To close ones eyes, to forget the sin. To hold to the Holy and forget that with in. And when we see the poor forgive. That which in the past would end.

Gail Debole December 6, 2012 at 6:30 PM Debbie - Very sensitive! Lovely to read. - Gail
