Best Cupid Poems

Atmospheres afire with devotional dynamic desire
I call scarlet jasmine crimson vermillion and ruby red
We are caught in a crossfire as we perkily perspire
And cupid carries our hearts to our betrothed bed

Angels dancing on choreographic clouds entrancing
Rainbows reunite over melodious meadows green
Our love advancing with rhythmic...

I wanted to try both types of the Rispetto form. The first one is 11 syllables
and the second is 8. I know the Iambic tetrameter is not perfect.


Ignorance fails to hear a heart's silent cry,
when love is seen as collateral damage.
Even Tuscan sunsets cannot help...

Cupid, drawback your bow, please
Don’t let it miss, don’t let it tease
Release the string, let the arrow wheeze
Squeeze through the trees 
Carrying it off in the gentle breeze 
Pierce my lover’s heart when I’m on my knees


Cupid drew back his bow while I proposed 
She...

A paradise rare beckons,
cradling our shadows’ whispers
to draw fine  lips  upon mine…
while tickled moon peeps.

How gently wild passion blooms…
when hands caress  each other
in a flame of surrender,
razing a night’s heat.
 
And ember’s scent lingers on
prompting rose-moon to quiver
till our eyes greet ,...

Cupid had an Arrow 
copyright by Julie Dunkley

Cupid had an arrow and he let go of his bow,
the arrow tore into my heart and now I love you so.
The heavens opened up for me and the angels sang a tune,
I saw a paradise with you...

To love you in every fairest moment
And kiss your tender lips in pure delight
To yearn for you when time is absent
And hold you closer in warm shadowed light
How warm our palms,  held in soft embrace
Beneath the sun's flowered fragrant field
As lover's we'll seek a...

I stand beneath a moon so bright
and ask for you to hear my plight 

I yearn to know my love's delights
for that, I'd wait a thousand nights 

My plea is gentle and polite 
my wish is simple and forthright

I need your help, oh wondrous sprite
to...

   This armed cherub
In diapers, with arrows
   
   This winged archer
is set upon our meadows

   Yet only time will tell

If he comes bearing,
   God's greatest gift

Or leaves us smitten
   and gawking at some...

" Hello, Mr. Cupid!
I'm so excited to talk to you.
You are the ambassador for love.
And give hope to the sad and blue.

" Hi, how are you?
Thank you for the compliment,
I'm just doing what I was born to do.
It's my pleasure to spread love.

" I didn't...

I crown you the king of stupid
Messing with a love that cupid
Sent your way for you to hold
But you have been very cold
Freezing her heart till it makes
Shattered pieces that just break
A loving woman's will to live
There's nothing else she can give
Her care showed through...

Out of hate, love and beauty,

the eternal triangle,

came Cupid and his arrow,

victim of himself.

Psyche, the daughter of the 
king and queen of Sicily,...

Cupid Pulls Back The Bow

This café I have stopped to dine,
with hopes I’ll meet my Valentine
I’ve seen her here most every day,
just never had the nerve to say
I took my seat at table two
and ordered what I usually do
Then noticed something just not right
my eyes...

Cupids arrows
Must be dipped in poison,
Because I thought hearts were meant to beat,
Not to be broken

In the beginning i was in love
And thought it was all meant to be, 
Just me and him, in harmony.

I was going to walk away, 
But I decided to give...

Remembering that Valentine’s
Is just an off kilter lie
And love is cruel and hateful
A salted drink splashed in your eye

Perhaps you will live your life
For no one else’s fame 
Clutching for no other’s gaze
Far ways from the game

But no, you want to fall in love
Just like...

When last we spoke 
	An image came

This latest journey 
	The latest challenge 

That will test
	The strength of 

Our RESOLVE to
	Build upon the love

Begun long ago	
	Now re-inspired

Hesitant at first like the 
	Faltering steps of a foal in spring 

Struggling to stand 
	Kicking up its heels 

Now...
