Anne-Marie Coreggia Poet Free verse

Troubadour Heart

Troubadour Heart

Your troubadour heart
diamond embers sows
through cloudlike 
patches of blue gently

strumming wreathes
of feathered accords
and when sadness rears
its grieving head

your strings weaving
invisible threads
a simple melody lace
and a thousand

lifting notes rise
tied in a flow of
caressing waves
calling me back
 
from a dark and grave
soul stealing place
and I now bathe

in the dreams of tomorrow
as your troubadour heart
carries mine away . . .

Anil Deo May 30, 2020 at 6:33 AM Wonderful write! Come back, Anne-Marie. You are missed on Poetry Soup (PS). PS is not perfect, and people play games everywhere ... even during COVID 19 pandemic. But Jesus loved people, knowing what we are ... Your presence is needed NOW. Even your words say as much: "lifting notes rise tied in a flow of caressing waves calling me back". shalom shalOM. DEO

Verlecia Fields July 17, 2017 at 3:37 AM The poem made me think of a handsome troubadour - walking and singing in a troubadour suit of brown and blue - with a woman sitting in a window - she's sad because she has fallen in love with him - and he is on his way to the next town Anne-Marie Coreggia July 18, 2017 at 4:06 PM I love your interpretation Verlecia:)

Darren White July 11, 2017 at 3:01 AM Anne-Marie, I miss you. Anne-Marie Coreggia July 12, 2017 at 8:34 PM Je m'excuse de ma longue absence et tu me manques aussi Darren.

James Inman July 3, 2017 at 7:20 PM Annie-Marie, this sounds as if it were written for a singer/song writer that you know or admire. It's beautifully written, really love the last stanza. Anne-Marie Coreggia July 5, 2017 at 9:26 AM Thank you, James. Indeed, I had in mind numerous singers, songwriters and poets who inspire me when I wrote this:)

Chris Green June 27, 2017 at 5:00 PM I know I have commented on this before but I thought I'd pop in again today because I miss you beautiful poetry. I hope all is well in your world. Anne-Marie Coreggia June 29, 2017 at 11:44 AM Life has become a little bit too hectic lately and I decided to take a break from poetry; but I will be back. I too miss reading your beautiful lines and I look forward to having the time again to rejoin the Soup:)
