your heart’s chamber bleeds into mine
rare its color, like the yellow cardinal
caressing unsung spaces and introducing virgin treasures
a lock of my red hair you wear around your neck
bracelets made from dried forget me knots, and lavender
inside your pocket a song I wrote, stained with a captured tear
the hat you wore so many years ago when we first met
rubbing it over my breast, so my natural smells would hold you captive
closing my dark green eyes, I see your furrowed brow, a map of life
musk, sandalwood, and eucalyptus oil breathes life into my skin
touches made with strong hands, gently, still hold your scent
your muscular jaw stands out like rugged tree branches
lingering our breaths meet in a gentle breeze, and turn into white lilies
the clouds flee like cottonwood seeds, as our lilies seal the sky, with our gift of love
A beautiful piece of celebration of love.
Thank you so much. I am so glad you liked it. I hope you are having an amazing day evening my friend. Blessings to you and your loved ones. β€οΈππ Joni
Blessings to you too Joni

A beautiful poem where we can see love captured and relived in the smallest things like a scent or a locket of hair. Lusciously written with great visuals and a heaping of hopelessly romantic. Well done, Jonikins!
Oh thank you Brad. You melt my heart with your kind words. Yes indeed I am an extreme romantic person.

Beautiful!
Thank you my dear friend. I hope your sweetie is feeling better. I hope the storms and rain are minimal so she feels better. Not fun to be aching from weatherβs barometric pressure. Please give her my best.
Love β€οΈ Joni

Good morning dearest Button,
Thank you so much for reading, I donβt know how you find the time but I am so grateful to hear from you. Your words are like sprinkles of gold my friend. I am surrounded right now.
βSuch a joy to read this magnificent piece: colors, bracelets, the breath of a lover.β
I am delighted you enjoyed this poem, sweet Button, this makes me smile.
You are certainly on my mind – your beautifully written piece βSon of The Desertβ up for vote for publication of the month on Spillwords (so exciting) and all that must be on your busy plate.
My heart goes out to you and all the teachers and universities professors, like yourself, having to adjust to the challenge of changing the way they help prepare our leaders of tomorrow. Also on my mind are the students and how they are affected.
I know you are up for the task, just so busy. Thank you for your love my friend. Donβt forget to sleep. I am sending back lots of love and lullabies to put you to sleep at night.
Yours,
(J) Honeybun π€πβ€οΈπΈπΊπ
Honeybun, the poem is splendid. Thank you for your love and kind thoughts. Yes, these are very stressful times for me.
Sending you blessings and love. Have a magnificent weekend.
