Justin Bordner Poet Ballad

The Halo of Her Heart

When you laid your hands upon my naked heart
feeling the flex of it's fire, accessing the innocent desire,
holding the form of a new need, I swear, that's when love did start,
your touch became my tradition, the wine of your wisdom my lovely teacher,

From the fine feathers of your soft steel wings
I write poetry of storms in paradise and of love in your eyes,
sympathizing with my sage solitude, yet subduing the sadness it brings
you offer me everything an angel owns, halo and bloodroots, and together we rise -

J.A.B.

Kp Nunez August 2, 2015 at 8:40 PM You have a new post! I'm not sure but from those I've read, this is by far the shortest. Regardless, the brevity does not affect the intensity of the message. Loved the line "I write poetry of storms in paradise and of love in your eyes". It tells of the complex nature of the subject. I would like to delve longer on "soft steel wings" though. Will have to return to this later at a more relaxed moment, Justin. As with your other writes, a 7 and fav. hugs! Justin Bordner August 3, 2015 at 2:11 AM Yes Kim, my heart swelled, and my soul felt the lightning of love as I expressed the beauty, not of a subject, but of the only woman that has awoken my heart to the meaning of life. The heart need not speak long when love is true...please share your thoughts with me, while relaxed or impassioned Poetess...J.A.B. Justin Bordner August 3, 2015 at 1:58 AM I am glad that your keen poetic eye has addressed the paradoxical metaphor, "Soft steel wings..." my Love has the grace and resilience of a summer's breeze, and the strength of a tight fire in a winter's night... your visit of warm sentiment and profound analysis is a gift to me, thank you Kim...J.A.B.
