Love..

[lunar glide]

...is enmeshed
in vibrating tethers
stretched out briefly
by pleasure
and by sorrow

A sea playing
at fleeing
and returning
to new shores a new ocean
communicating
only with the silent sphinx
the moon

in vibrations
and in frequencies
only Beethoven can hear
in the sway of the ether

untill the sway itself spins
a vertigo that rearranges the pieces
while love delights
in rearranging the new immortal puzzle
kiss by kiss
almost identical
but unrecognizable

the silent sphinx babbling
sweet nothings again
the yellow just a little bit different...
almost a cotton ball
the tail of a frolicking deer.

LG, I think Neruda would be jealous that he did not write this. I think that sums up my comments about this lovely work of art.

[lunar glide]

you are too generous. I am undeservedly honored.

[Tanner]

LG, Tanner is usually modest in his remarks; but his nose might have gotten longer had he not told the truth.

[AlexandratheLate]

I think this is lovely LG. I've read it several times and it hits me deeper each time.

[lunar glide]

I'm happy you liked and honored you read more than once

[RhymeLovingWriter]

Beautifully descriptive LG!

[lunar glide]

thanks for reading and commenting 😄

[Lucy the Dreamer]

Beautiful!

[lunar glide]

thank you so much Lucy 😄

[MHenry]

This is truly wonderful, lg. Pleasure and sorrow juxtaposed with the ebb and flow of the tides is perfect, and the cotton ball tail is an apt and delicious ending!

[lunar glide]

I'm glad you liked it maestro. thanks for visiting!

[Suz-zen]

lunar glide you have captured the essence right here:
in vibrations
and in frequencues
only Beethoven can hear
in the sway of the ether

[lunar glide]

thank you suz-zen. you helped me catch the misspelling lol

[Suz-zen]

You know what?? I did not even see it! I was so entranced! In the moment with the vibration!!

[lunar glide]

that's the highest honor art can strive for! when little mistakes can be part of it 😄

[John Wertz]

Wonderful, LG. I especially like 4th stanza. The whole poem I thought Yeats like in boldness -- taking on so enigmatic an abstraction.

[lunar glide]

thank you very much john!

[Suz-zen]

lunar glide i was listening to:
Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-sharp minor, Op. 27, No. 2 (Third movement) after reading this and what came to mind was : a vertigo that rearranges the pieces
while love delights
in rearranging the new immortal puzzle

[lunar glide]

oh wow. lol still editing the puzzle myself 😄

[grant hayes]

Love in your lunar
musings is beauteous lull
plucked from our furies

[lunar glide]

thank you for this haiku! 😄

[DWAYNE]

Strong articulation of a universal desire!
