By Your Blue Flame

Whew. I think part of me fell in love with Love just then …

(please, please, Please join the Insomniacs group and post your works. All of them. Sincerely!)

Love so defined has to be real…. at least for a time.

Beautiful.

bravo beautiful work!

A sensual beautiful love story told in gloriously lyrical words, that ebb and flow through the
mind like a gentle ocean. So many wonderful lines. Perfection from the mind through the pen to the paper. A definite fav!

speechless…. it kindles me…

...side-by-sidedness, heaven’s gift
a warmth that doesn’t strain or tire
like butterflies wrapped inside their pattern
like dragons in love with their Fire…

the entire piece right from the beginning,
a beautiful warm sincere love story, and one that
can be so in reality between soul mates; a warmth that doesn’t strain or tire..
lovely writing x

I am with Del.. I was just going to copy this down and she had it… but really friend.. your work is satisfying.

soooo beautiful and soft.

“I’ve been kissing those lips for centuries…” feels so beautiful and familiar. This is a superb work of art within the precious art of love words and feelings. xxxx

Each line builds the following in this piece. A complimentary muse of romantic verse that is stunning in it’s execution. Amazing …you are going somewhere me thinks..:))

Man, i know it. for centuries. This is a cosmic, undeniable beauty. Kristin

So spiritual and magical once again.
I’m perched on the sill of your soul
like a crow who waits for the rain.....this is just pure beauty, Jim.

My god, Jim; how do you always find the perfect words? This is one of the most moving pieces of wrting that I have ever come across. I will second Kristin. Where does one start to lift parts of this sublime to serve as representative of the entire? And, I mean sublime in the Kantian sense of that which leaves one with unspeakable awe, if you will forgive the irony.

By the way, not sure if you have run across Wallace’s Sunday Morn as of yet. I am almost sure that you can find it on www.poetryfoundation.org.; a great site to take a sip of the greats.

Thank you sir, this is moving to hear you found it so beautiful. Means a lot to me. and I will check out Sunday Morn in due course, thanks for that.

many creative blessings -
Jim.

Oh MY!! This is full of imagery and metaphors that take my breath away! Just a fabulous write. Wonderfully done! :)

Absolutely wonderful!

very romantic, i like it a lot.

oh this is…I am….it’s so…”sigh” all of the above! :)

Wow. You really know how to love a woman to death and then bring her to life again with your beautiful, luscious words.

I am so flattered. I sure will put you in my watchlist. Because if all of your words are like these, then if they are death, then a thousand deaths I will accept.

You words seemed to come to life as I read this piece… I could feel the words…. especially the part where her hair is being tucked behind the her ear…..

I guess we all try and relate to poems… and see ourselves in them…. this is a wonderful poem.

Ohhhh…pure romance….gorgeous…

Well, I can see why….It’s now one of my favorites, too! :)

When I was young romance was everywhere but now I’m near 50 that magical chemistry between people seems rare. Are you living these words or are they nostalgic?

amazing words!

So very tender and romantic. Beautiful.

light, sentimental, sensual piece…well done!

Sensual, tender, romantic…..
“I’d wrap you in my blanket, love, you’d
feel the angels never left your port.
I’d walk with you forever, love, our simple
yoke; our love be the rose that won’t hurt.”
A piece that caresses and sings to the soul…perfect…

I most definitely still think it is a thing of beauty Jim…..

such a stunning love poem! a person can live their whole life and never be told something as beautiful as this!

This is unbelievably beautiful

so warm amd beautiful—Charma

I still love this one!

I too still love this poem
so very romantic
and eye opening x

i get such wobbly knees for poetry of the romantic kind…
this is marvelous – I paint the hair behind your ear
subtle changes, crimson tune. so glad you used Lisas-never-fail-poem-revival-method.

As lovely a read second time round.

flows like a sweet melody, simply beautiful. :)

This is one of my favorites of yours, Jim. :) if I could favorite again and again, I would.
And, I must say so sorry, to your above reply to my comment…as my current pic is void of pig tails..but, right now? I’m in my slothes, and divine morning pigtails. lol
thought you’d like to know. lol

Ah, you have me warmly reminiscing about the way I worship at the altar of my own Love…beautiful writing.

How beautiful to see Divinity laid bare in another.

I find your cosmic references intriguing and delightful. The shades of blue speak volumes.

a true romantic in words and mental sights

Truly beautifully painted images of romance and sensuality.

“I pray beside your blue flame
at the edge of your mystic fount
A thousand lives soaring skyward
from the valley, inwards and out.”

This takes you through the beginning of time as a beautiful love song continues to sing to a lover and takes you to the present.

Such a beautiful piece of writing….how did I miss this!!!

This is just beautiful. I just love it. As always you have mastered the art of words. Iris
