A Taste of Love

by TSI25   Feb 11, 2013


The summer sun was broken then,
its warmth drifting
like so many golden feathers
on the downy, evening breeze

Can you remember what you said?

Your words grew soft in the singing air;
glowing forget-me-nots of blue and silver,
with golden cream-filled centres,
delicately caressing the soul.

I held the cards in my hand but
they were not my cards they were...
yours.

They danced to the tune of your soul,
and for a moment -
as I remembered what you said - I felt
your heart's gentle flame
lapping at my lonely soul
dancing in the broken summer sun
as I had yearned to learn to
merely years before

and I still remember what you said...
I remember the crown of forget-me-nots
and the sweet taste
of nectar on the summer wind.
It was just a drop I did adore-
a taste of love
and nothing more.

    This is really just- lovely. You've created a very soft image, which works perfectly with the romance and gentle passion.

    "Your words grew soft in the singing air;

    delicately caressing the soul."- I love the feeling this gives off, it sounds very luxurious!

    This was a very nice read, good job :)

    So odd, I mean.

    I have no words or critiques for this poem. It's odd lol
    But I'll try to say something, this is one of those poems that feel personal yet the emotion is felt and allowed me to connect to the poem. I read it three times and the forget me nots and the ending got to me.

    I also noticed the bluebells in here. All in all, my favorite poem from yours. 5/5

    This is very descriptive. Its so emotional, and so raw, so real. I can really feel the things you are writing. There is so much passion here, great write. I am amazed someone so young can be so talent or have ever felt this. But I guess things have changed since I was there.

    4.5

    With love,
