Inspired by my friend Amadon's "Full blown love"
Love Is.
Slip into love
wear it soft as silk
as light as cashmere
feel it's warmth
Love comes surfing
into your soul
like a warm tsunami
reflecting light
Love's a bridge
where mind spans
a wide divide,heart
to loving heart
Love's a rose whose
fully blown petals
open wide to reveal
it's golden heart
Love's perfume
gently overflows
pervades all that is
in essence of bliss








I love it.
I especially feel the line about the warm tsunami reflecting light. A beautiful and powerful image.
Dave Pleased you enjoyed it, thank you
My art teacher in high scool used to say, when I'd done something really good: “I liiiike it.” Well, I'm givin' you an art teacher high five. I really liiiike it.
This is beautiful Zephyr!

“Love is a bridge”
I see it as a “sacred space” inside and connected with others in a bridge.

Starlight, thank you for your appreciation and for taking the time to comment, this seems to be a popular poem.
wonderful! this reminds me of sting's song Inside - parts of it anyway… ok, it's very different, Gael, lol, but my mind makes these leaps :)
Inside the doors are sealed to love
Inside my heart is sleeping
Inside the fingers of my glove
Inside the bones of my right hand
Inside it's colder than the stars
Inside the dogs are weeping
Inside the circus of the wind
Inside the clocks are filled with sand
Inside she'll never hurt me
Inside the winter's creeping
Inside the compass of the night
Inside the folding of the land
Outside the stars are turning
Outside the world's still burning
Inside my head's a box of stars I never dared to open
Inside the wounded hide their scars, inside this lonesome sparrow's fall
Inside the songs of our defeat, they sing of treaties broken
Inside this army's in retreat, we hide beneath the thunder's call
Outside the rain keeps falling
Outside the drums are calling
Outside the flood won't wait
Outside they're hammering down the gate
Love is the child of an endless war
Love is an open wound still raw
Love is a shameless banner unfurled
Love's an explosion,
Love is the fire of the world
Love is a violent star
A tide of destruction
Love is an angry scar …
