Chef d'oeuvre That's What You Are

by Lune de ma vie   Oct 13, 2014


Gentle is the breeze,
the scent of sunflowers and jasmine whiff through the air
continually filling my nares.
Marveling at the state of euphoria I'm in,
these sharp hazel eyes pierce the blank sheet of paper
pencil in hand, I begin.

Gliding over the cloth paper,
sketching an Angel on Earth
with her razzle-dazzle cinnamon eyes,
showing a gateway to a world I want to be part of.
Lips of ember red,
like the first light from a fire.

Eyebrows perfect from beginning to end,
hair so exquisite it must've been woven from thread.
A smile ensorcelled,
alluring me in.
Her mien sparkling and prestigious,
bending but never breaking is her spirit.
A complexion so strong,
unyielding to abdicate
striving for success,
achieving great lengths.
Unique in her spirit,
a heart so true.

Catechizing children,
molding their minds to become divine
never giving up on them,
just as I'll never give up on you.
A teacher at heart,
pure is her soul.

Goddess-like body,
kissable no doubt
flawless is her perfections,
even with her spouts.
I fall for her more,
drawing her as art.
Although she's a masterpiece to begin,
a walking poem for sure.
Crafty and keen,
breathless and passionate,
these are some of the things she is to me.

Words can't describe a beauty so true,
attraction as deep-seated as I have for you.
Artistry in my mind, an Angel sent from above,
who keeps guiding me with love.

Finishing this sketch,
eyes viewing you.
Please now know,
I will wait for you forever,
even if it takes the end of never.
I love you for you,
and I'll never get enough of you.

    I remember this poem - you wrote it for Emma :)

    Gentle is the breeze,
    the scent of sunflowers and jasmine whiff through the air
    continually filling my nares.
    Marveling at the state of euphoria I'm in,
    these sharp hazel eyes pierce the blank sheet of paper
    pencil in hand, I begin.
    ^^
    I am in awe of this opening stanza - your descriptions so clear and vivid - you as the writer allow us into your mind with the powerful words you have knitted together to construct such a scene. You have used the sense of touch in the first line - feeling the gentle breeze against your skin. The second line you have used the sense of smell - the fragrance of Jasmine and sunflowers - this can also be the sense of sight as we are able to associate the word to personal experiences.
    "sharp hazel eyes pierce the blank sheet of paper"
    Such a beautifully written line - amazing use of adjectives to describe the eye as well as the strong verb 'pierce' giving the eye a characteristic of its actions to the paper.
    I can also clearly see the pencil and a hand holding it - motivated by intense emotions - eager to illustrate the moments and feelings your heart yearns to express!

    Gliding over the cloth paper,
    sketching an Angel on Earth
    with her razzle-dazzle cinnamon eyes,
    showing a gateway to a world I want to be part of.
    Lips of ember red,
    like the first light from a fire.
    ^^
    Here you display to the reader that you are an artist bringing to life this vision of the woman you love - you express her as an angel with cinnamon eyes - love the use of cinnamon - creates a beautiful imagery!
    There is a barrier present between you and this angel as you wish to be apart of her world - like you are on the outside looking in or in reality reflecting upon a dream. This picture you have drawn is the key as it is the gate way to this world - here you highlight positive and accomplishable understandings as there is a thread between you and this girl and the stronger this bond is growing.
    "Lips of ember red,
    like the first light from a fire."
    ^^
    I love these two line the most in this stanza - the linkage is amazing - a simile of lips to first light of a fire - the images created here are so strong and effective!

    Eyebrows perfect from beginning to end,
    hair so exquisite it must've been woven from thread.
    A smile ensorcelled,
    alluring me in.
    Her mien sparkling and prestigious,
    bending but never breaking is her spirit.
    A complexion so strong,

    achieving great lengths.
    Unique in her spirit,
    a heart so true.

    here you are letting the reader into the doorways of your inner thoughts were we as the reader gain insight into the words of your heart - beautiful descriptions of a beautiful girl - you paint her here with defined colours with your finite definitions and explanations - allowing us to visualise this woman that has captured your heart - truly beautiful!

    Catechizing children,
    molding their minds to become divine
    never giving up on them,
    just as I'll never give up on you.
    A teacher at heart,
    pure is her soul.
    ^^
    A teacher, as a teacher myself I can relate - I like how you stated molding their minds - yet in actuality we are not molding minds we are allowing children to explore and discover the world - facilitating their learning and allowing them to be active participants of what they learn. Education has come a long way throughout the years as well as it differs according to country and decade - I love the link between her love for the children - an unbreakable bond built on innocence and love - and your love for her!

    Goddess like body,
    kissable no doubt
    flawless is her perfections,
    even with her spouts.
    I fall for her more,
    drawing her as art.
    Although she's a masterpiece to begin,
    a walking poem for sure.
    Crafty and keen,
    breathless and passionate,
    these are some of the things she is to me.
    ^^
    I like how you have included your love for her in the forms of different types of art such as drawings and poetry - you emphases here that she is a crafty person and a masterpiece between your drawings and who she is as a person! Lovely linkage!

    Words can't describe a beauty so true,
    attraction as deep-seeded as I have for you.
    Artistry in my mind, an Angel sent from above,
    who keeps guiding me with love.
    ^^
    This stanza is simply perfection! I am speechless! It all flows very well and it all brings to life your deep seeded feelings for this angel that is embedded within your heart!

    Finishing this sketch,
    eyes viewing you.
    Please now know,
    I will wait for you forever,
    even if it takes the end of never.
    I love you for you,
    and I'll never get enough of you
    ^^
    This poem truly reflects a love so deep that you will continue to fight for the love you share no matter the circumstances that stand in your way!

    Beautiful writing Justin!
