~ Venus and Mars ~

As the stars cross this brumous night ~

Standing here with these white washing tides

Carrying away the sands beneath my feet

Glancing beyond the repetitious of this champagne sea

Swells amid the rifts now rising....

Before my thoughts and inside of my heart

Communing with a chromatic collage of endless faces ~

This colloquy within my own souls revelations

As the mist before my eyes begins to clear

And the lighthouse of truth, as truth is, begins to appear

Castaway phantoms walking upon the waters

Beckoning unto me all of their beauties ~

Their irreplaceable hopes and dreams....

Transcending the tangibles, amid an unproportional world 

The relevancies of every life, speaking unto me 

As a warm tear rolls down my face

While Jupiter explodes, before my eyes ~

Impaling my spirit with these impeccable purities....

Sublime; as I walk further into the swishing swirling currents

Toward the fathoms of acceptances understandings

Taking their precious hands, as the moon smiles upon their, glow ~

Born anew, within this panoramic and palindrome view....

Embracing their beating breathing hearts~These creations!

Turning back the tides of time; castaways no more

For it is all of life that I see now, deep inside the splendor

The wonders of whom they are, each, as a precious jewel ~

Awakened, amid these implosive clarities....

As the stars cross the fading brumous night

Standing here with the white washing tides

Carrying away the sands beneath my feet, forevermore ~

Glancing beyond the repetitions of this champagne sea 

Phantasms of once thought lore, smiling as they come alive

Lessons learned, and shifting dunes, of truths unfold....

While these rubies as tears, fall, from the corners of my sight

Marking my cheeks, unto their graves of what used to be

Slightly quivering lips; as these endless wells of emotion, arise inside

Realizing, how much I truly care, for each and every one, of their lives ~

Mars, now embracing Venus with, an everlasting kiss....

                       ~ Of ~

This reminds me of feelings when hearing a great piece of music, seeing marvelous scenery, or reading an inspired passage from a great book. Everything comes together for a short space. Love, daver

Only a true romantic could paint this amazing picture of Venus and Mars getting together, John. Please send the "white washing tides" to Florida's Gulf coast. the oil is making its way east through the Panhandle now. Beautiful poem, my friend. Love, Carolyn

beautiful descriptions Loved that line about champagne sea! Your vocabulary is impressive. I think sometimes you are confusing me with audrey & Celeste in your comments to me. Audrey's name is a LOT like mine. haha! About my poem "power within" it was based on picture of a tiger swimming in water. It was for a contest of Raul's I think! That might help you to understand it. I was discussing the instincts of that wild animal even when submerged in water. have a good weekend, John. LUv, Andrea

A deep sense of motions while my heart and mind collide with each other. Your pondering on the connection of two soulmates are the shining stars that rise when all love prevails. A strong presious jewel is the breath of any giving love to conquer any drifts the air and moon bring. Howdy John, Love the poem. Thanks for a delightful poem. Glad to hear that you will try to return to soup. Have yourself a wonderful Night,..Sidney LeeAnn

Pure unadulterated love, so beautiful does bring one to tears..funny how the solution to all of man's problems is within his grasp yet, he can not see..he reaches instead for the useless, fleeting things...another great one from a great mind...Totally enjoyed this, John...Bless you and take care..Peace, love, Audrey Thanks for comments on mine!
