You have certainly caught up with Dante Alighieri who wrote: "If it be the will of Him in whom all things flourish, I will write of you things that have never been written about any other woman." You on the other hand have written words about that special person that certainly matches the previous quote. I hope for you that the love you describe is that which Frank C. Labauch wrote: "When iron is rubbed agaisnt a magnet it becomes magnetic. Just so, love is caught not taught. One heart ablaze sets another on fire. The church was built on love, it proves what love can do." A most excellent poem!

This poem is so touching. I once saw a stream so peaceful that two deer were drinking from it on opposite sides. the poem is as if the those deer met on the same side, so to say. Lovely write.

Hiya Zoya!
Brilliant poem in free verse - my favourite!
I especially loved your images - "blood stream vibrating" " deep down my belly"
and "rocky belly".

Mountains, and mountain streams, have a similar effect on me. This is a beautiful work, and it captures to perfection the dangerous, beautiful, heady feeling you get when you are so full of love your veins seem to hum, and the essence of the earth hums with you. ::::}

Mmm. The essence of the danger and the thrill and the certain infinity of the realization of love. The stream is beautiful, but the journey is hard and you never know if you're going to slip and fall to your rocky doom -- though you think you won't, because you think he/she is going to protect you, never let anything hurt you. So you put the bad out of your mind, thinking only of the good.

Then, later, when you go tumbling and they can't do anything about it, you think to yourself, "Why was I so blind?"

But the answer is plain: The stream was so beautiful and the moment was so perfect.

Then you wonder if it was all worth it, but that is a question that can never be answered.

Lovely work.
