Love Spell

Words spiral around me
As they fall from my lips
Floating... dancing
To my quickening pulse
Plucking the universe
In crystal form
Bejeweling red curls
And a broken heart
Whispering love letters
Into the wind
Chanting... chanting
Your name
In hopes that you may
Look my way
Look my way...

I'm afraid I'm gonna have to give up on this one... well... maybe not! haha Thanks Brian!! I love that line too!
DeleteWell, they are missing out if not... oh, I love the 1st stanza.
ReplyDeleteI agree Laurie, but you can't lead a horse to water if it doesn't want to drink!! I really appreciate you coming by to visit!!
DeleteKeep whispering that love spell! Maybe a little louder if they don't turn around!
ReplyDeleteI could practically see words spiraling around and falling! Beautifully written!
Thank you!! I will definitely try!
DeleteLove the repetition in the last two stanzas ........
ReplyDeleteI like this very much. The repetition is so very effective.."chanting, chanting" and "Look my way, look my way." I do hope that whispering love letters into the wind brings love. If so, it would be a beautiful thing!
ReplyDeleteNicely done. As others have said, I too like the rhythm with the repetition. I always think this adds something special to a poem.
ReplyDeleteOh, so beautiful a love poem ... the image of your words weaving a spell is beautiful ...
ReplyDeleteLove your rhythm and chant, how you wove it all together with beautiful images-wonderful :-)
