Come awake
You pretty little star
Surrogate
My angel, unaware
Speak to me
In languages of stare
Come alive
You precious little ward
To protect
My sentimental heart
Dream of me
In reoccurring parts
Come away
You unassuming saint
Separate
The channels of desire
Be with me
Awaiting by the fire
Come inside
You interwoven soul
Resurrect
In deepening resolve
Evermore
A paragon of love
Beautiful XX
Thank you very much, Willow 🙂
UBER LOVELY
LIKE A HEART WHISPER XO
A very sweet comment 🙂
A QUIET HUSH TO YOUR WORDS ———LIKE A LULLABY 🙂
I am glad to hear that 🙂

VW, I love the “form” of this. The reader can take the first lines of each stanza and put them together (with commas), and the second lines, and so forth – and it would still make sense. It makes the poem multi-dimensional, and a beautiful song, in which I sense some wistfulness and a lot of love!
A lovely comment, Betty. I almost always hear things as songs in my head, but to try and sing them usually does not work as well as in my head 🙂
beautiful ensemble of wishes VW 🙂
Thank you, Soma!
It’s just a beautiful poem, it’s lovely 🙂
Thank you, Autumn
It’s like saying it aloud would be akin to casting a decadent and luxurious spell! Lovely work, my friend 🙂
Then by all means, cast it at will! 🙂 thank you
“My angel, unaware, My sentimental heart, The channels of desire, In deepening resolve,”….just beautiful, VW! All of it, not just those lines.
Hugs, xx
Thank you, Deb! 🙂
Ah, I took a break from WP for a week, returned today and I immediately come back here, and I was not disappointed. Lovely work, as always.
Thank you, Alex! Glad you are back
Our heart’s most earnest desires here, so quietly and lovingly expressed in this very successful poem, perfect in form and language! These lines especially resonated with me:
“Come inside
You interwoven soul”
The ideal lover is the soul-mate, for sure!

“”Speak to me In languages of stare””…. I wonder how many we gaze upon speak in that language of stare?
Wonderful poem VW.. and wishing you well xx
Our eyes speak louder than our voices sometimes. Thank you!
I read this out loud and found that it is a powerful chant. The poem moves from its beginning, addressing a pretty little star, to the command to come inside where the
interwoven soul
Resurrect
In deepening resolve
Evermore
A paragon of love
In the end I take this as a love poem, but, like Betty, I hear a wistful tone that interacts with the power words in each stanza’s third line: Surrogate, protect, separate, resurrect.
This is just well done, again.
I wish I could have heard you read it 🙂
