Frederic asked in Arts & HumanitiesPoetry · 8 years ago

Does this poem express emotion "High Tide"?

Along feathered edges the red sun sets

Dreams pierce the evening sky that eyes explore

Two hearts now whisper, paradise is met

While kisses feel warm on the sandy shore

Sublime and time have merged to reminisce

And white caps begin tilling pebbled sand

A world passes the changing light is missed

Blamed on tender touches by lover's hands

Beneath black sky the rolling waves implore

To share the intimate nature of love

Feeling the presence of the waves encore

Lay awash in awe, under the stars above

No need to speak, eyes will not ignore

Their fate is sealed lovers for evermore

    This is of course, emotional Fredric.

    In truth it is a poem and has a childlike purity combined with mature experience

    which as a reader, I can fall in love with.

    Your wording is to me, exquisitely fine in this specific write,

    with the warmth of sun-kissed sands, held hands and hearts

    embraced in your theme of the oceanic ebbs, flows and

    none else knows of the particularity of the intimacy.

    All the senses are rejoiced in here - the waves` `encore`....

    offering visions within of simple honest feeling

    then the `beyond` of, `forever more` implying

    love beyond the senses.

    Poem of the Week..Hoorah! :D....This is One to Heal hearts and Souls.

    xxxx ....Makes me feel I am standing close with you, with `them`..unseen joy, quietly.

    Your excellent, descriptive phrases

    definitely express emotion.

    Very nice, lyrical flow to this piece.

    "A Keeper" for sure.

    There is a lot of emotion in these words. I like how you use imagery in this poem. Very nicely done, I'd say!

    When I read a poem, I want to SEE it as a tapestry or a video and to FEEL its impact. I have experienced both in reading this one.
