Under cherry blossom trees
3 March 2016

You kissed me
Rain kissing red rose
Delicate
Ornate touch
Petals that dewdrops dispose
Carpet of longing
Responding
I liquefied Heart
Gave you blood
From blue veins
Surrendered my very reigns
Captive mare bridled
In shadows
You redesigned me
A kingdom
Blue suns maze
Where our souls walked in a haze
Answering riddles
The griffin
She asks many boons
I gift soul
And ashes
Of this body as it swoons
Into flying fires

Heart captured
Its shade remained blue
While the grey
Crumbling wisps
Entered the pyramid’s fray
Where prays he who lisps
Blue remnants
Tugged at falling ash
Soul feathered
In grey tar
Resisting unearthly war
Heartbeats untethered
I fly free
Forgotten the ache
Mind alive
Spins stories
Distance into itself fades
Creaking winds whisper
Of Love’s lands
Of togetherness
I weave lake
Towering
Above the hot golden sands
That shelter my frame

In this space
We find but one soul
Third pillar
Standing tall
In my heart lies room for all
Flowers without name
Red on blue
Gyrating atoms
Second suns
They glow stark
Ignition the holy spark
Love fed momentums
I am yours
Like you are mine too
We may paint
It can faint
There can be only one hue
Purple our future
Morrows bright
They shine in Venus
She bows head
To Earth dead
Under cherry blossom trees
As we pick up light
Reading of the poem:

Koop Island Blues – Koop
Come to me – Koop
Summer sun – Koop
Definitely a unique take on love under the tree, but stunning nevertheless. The evading purple of a union royally shines upon your piece.
May you enjoy this weekend!

Thank you my beautiful friend. I have been obsessing about atoms and two suns lately as well as certain primal colours such as blue and red, which then lead to purple

You’re welcome 🙂 I love and share your blue fascination as well as your obsession with suns and atoms. 😉 Maybe I look forward to more poems that feature both?

Love the image of love you portray here, completely immersive and maybe a bit dangerous.

Love can never be dangerous Marissa. Expectations and obsessions can. Thank you for reading and commenting 🙂

Thank you Adele. I am glad you liked both the poem and its reading 🙂 I am writing another one. The flow and my restricted time do not allow me to catch up on all those whom I usually follow but hope to catch up soon with everybody’s writings.
