I don’t know what has got into me…I am feeling overly romantic – must be missing Goldfinch way too much! I very rarely attempt poetry because I am pathetic at it. But as soon as I saw this picture prompt from The Haunted Wordsmith, it started to play on my mind…and here I have something that could loosely be described as a poem because there are rhyming elements and it is all mushy and vague.
Sorry to all true poets who will surely be horrified by my definition of poetry. Here is my offering in response to Worth A Thousand Words #2.

Rainbow Fields Forever
Big bright blue intense
I’m lost in his gaze
Eye to eye contact
Has me in a daze
I am looking deep into his eyes
And all I see is rainbow fields forever
Warm mellow rhythmic
His comforting sound
Hearing his whisper
Has me quite spell-bound
I am listening to his voice
And all I hear is rainbow fields forever
Honeyed pine manly
I breathe in his scent
Scarf, pillow, sheet and
Wherever he went
I am craving his aroma
And all I smell is rainbow fields forever
Tender, gentle, kind
Wrapped in him I stand
My joy’s overflowing
Walking hand in hand
I cling to my loved one
And all I feel is rainbow fields forever
His lips meet my own
I’ve longed for his kiss
Lingering tingle
Leaves me in sheer bliss
His embraces make me breathless
And all I taste is rainbow fields forever
I really enjoyed your poem.

Thank you Jay-lyn…I am always very doubtful about my poems – well, I only have three. All rather dubious!

That’s really good! I sometimes do poetry and I think that you’re better than me! Excellent work – and don’t worry about feeling overly romantic (I’m a romantic).

Thank you so much 🙂
Poetry is something I struggle with. But sometimes the prompts from other bloggers move me to have a try.
I think Goldfinch has been the one to bring the romantic side out of me.
