Pizzicato

The wind plucks the strings of the night

as the weeping willows whisper

in the ear of the dark~

Not jaded by the rain nor the drought of love

I wait for the shadow of a stranger

to emerge in my dreams~

And as moonlight leaves tremble

like the tides ebb and flow

the slender limbs of temptation

cling to the midnight hour.

Oh such yearning to be plucked from the solo loneliness to be part of a lover's symphony.
moonlight leaves trembling like the ebb and flow - that takes a very poetic view of the world, seeing the tides in such a way.
Your writing always has a great effect on me.
Thank you for sharing this with us here, Rose :))

My friend, I don't know how I missed this one but happily I did find it. This is deilcately beautiful, the serenity of the night, nature sings in melodic tones and love is in the air. Wonderful Rose. It is so nice to read something from you.

Hi, yes it's lovely to read, and gives me a feeling that I should sleep and dream, to see if my stranger appears tonight....will those slender limbs of temptation be just too slender I wonder....PS: 'the shadow of a stranger', there is more in this phrase than meets the eye so to speak. Very cleverly written, Rose, and most enjoyable.

[SyberRose]

Thank you Daffy...so nice to hear from you tonight...Rose:)

[The Representative]

I've just read your poem. It's concise poetry....more or less each word counts, needing to be focused on.


The "drought of love" line was what I was caught most by.

[SyberRose]

Thank you for taking time to read today...I appreciate it...Rose:)
