Celestial Body

Summary:
North Dakota…tandem aurora borealis and lunar eclipse. “She holds the whole world in a trance”. Inspired by the Eagles song “I Love to Watch a Woman Dance”

beauty…
is in the eye of the beholder
…so they say…
“as if” my thoughts cajoled her

brilliant…
is the glow of her presence
for all to see
exuding a celestial essence

tonight…
an umbra accentuates her pirouette
for one dance only
a stunningly deep red silhouette 

shimmering…
is the veil complementing her body
above an earthen floor
Luna, she dances in sheer esprit

exceedingly…
rare is such privilege for mine eyes
mesmerized in simplistic gaze
innuendo framing my words in guise

      • Fia, thanks for the welcome. Your words are kind. Yes, the single words are different than how others would write their poetry. For me, it creates a pause to help focus on the feelings and emotions I’m trying to express.

    1. Chère A.,
      Welcome to this (Fia’s) corner of heaven.
      Your verse form is very suitable for setting to music. To use as lyrics I mean.

      Maybe…
      In the future?

      But for now, what a way to start!
      If you’re American: thank you.
      In all other cases: keep them coming please.

      Kind regards, Gus

      • Duhsjaak, thanks for your welcoming comments. Most of my writing is based on interpretation of musical melody and song lyrics. I’ve never actually thought of my poems as song before. That is an interesting consideration.
