Ghairo Daniels Poet Suzette Prime

Voir Dire Series 1 : on love

Based on Suzette Richards Poem of same Title Verse 5
Written for Contest of same Title
Feb.26
Placed : First in Contest 
__________________________

love is not a topic like wisdom or faith
it evolves not as such awareness learnings
over cause of span or with experience 
life's needle, thread, spindle as well as loom song
weaves virtue and vice simultaneously 

vital fantasy, from spontaneous realm
inconceivable for mind to discern love 
motion birthed from heart’s vulnerable petals
amorvivium* has zilch tie to mentality

____________________________

*scientific term for purified love indicating that it is only phenomenon that exists after cosmos decays

Suzette Richards April 2, 2026 at 1:26 AM I loved your 'Voir dire' series, Ghairo. A must read for those who have not yet done so. A note by the sponsor: At the time of judging my contest, you did conform to the title requirement, but as always, it is the prerogative of the poet to make any adjustments to the poem afterwards as they see fit. Suzette Richards April 2, 2026 at 11:21 AM Just serving as inspiration and you honouring the Suzette Prime form is more than enough for me, Ghairo. I have added your Voir Dire series (the links to your poems) at my article: "Suzette Prime - Concise Update | PoetrySoup.com" Thank YOU. Ghairo Daniels April 2, 2026 at 4:54 AM ThkU for comment, Su. I often change my title after the contest as I don’t like a sponsor to tell me what my title should be & I often have a better title. For the Voir dire Series, your Contest gave me the idea to do a couple & I have a lot more of these floating in my head. Where I posted them, I have acknowledged that the first one was promoted by your own 5th stanza of same title. If I need to add a better acknowledgment, let me know as this series received quite a bit of attention elsewhere. Xx.

I Am Anaya March 2, 2026 at 8:25 AM Congratulations on a most deserved trophy win Ghairo, love your amazing work, as I stepped out of my break away to come & honor. You always teach me something. I'm most intrigued with the word Amorvivium (a hard one to find) & its scientific proof & how you put it to use. xXx Ghairo Daniels March 3, 2026 at 12:03 AM ThkU dear Anaya for stepping out of your breakaway. I truly appreciate your Love & commitment to change. Blessings to your break. X.

Suzette Richards March 2, 2026 at 12:39 AM Congratulations on your trophy win, Ghairo, in my contest, ‘Voir Dire on Love’. It’s a bold counterpoint: the quatrain seeks clarity, while your poem insists love thrives in mystery. In your ‘closing argument’, you underline that love cannot be reduced to intellectual analysis—it belongs to the realm of feeling, not thought. Ghairo Daniels March 3, 2026 at 12:07 AM ThkU for your challenging contest, Su. I like this Voir Dire biz. Thinking of doing a series of Voir Dires. Lol.

Paige Hind February 26, 2026 at 3:36 PM I love your theory you put into this. Amazing work from the gifted mind, you are!!! xxoo Ghairo Daniels February 26, 2026 at 4:57 PM ThkU for comment & affirmation, Dearest Poet. For me, it’s a reality, not a theory since it is Heart speaking. Xx

Victor Buhagiar February 26, 2026 at 8:25 AM Your poem on love is indeed spontaneous and lively. There is depth in it. Wonderful. Ghairo Daniels February 26, 2026 at 3:17 PM ThkU for seeing the depth, Sweet Sir Poet. Great Love to you & Malta. X.

Daniel Henry Rodgers February 26, 2026 at 8:02 AM Dear Ghairo, a thoughtful, searching clarity. I love how you frame love not as an idea to master but as a living force that blending virtue and vice together while still rising beyond the mind’s reach. Your exploration of amorvivium gives the poem a rare, almost scientific luminosity. Wonderful Read! Blessings, Ghairo, Daniel Ghairo Daniels February 26, 2026 at 3:23 PM ThkU Sir Poet. Xx.
