Ahhh to read life...


Poem Artwork

The Book

By: Felix L. Perry

A dog-eared book discarded face down

concealed verses on page worn and faded

the living spine almost breaks with the

weight of long ago voices now degraded

 

This book of hurt a treasury of what was

closed on the oblivion of passion’s past

voices read words and a teardrop shared

moisten the dawn like a storm shadow cast

 

Ah, but spring clouds spray blue tints on white

sun unfolds the horizon like a new morning kiss

the page somehow transforms into a new chapter

words of hope served in lucid amber chaffing dish

our rhythm of love’s yearning denied

sweet nothings on paper still provokes a dream

initials inked in hearts pierced by Cupid’s arrow

in literature, life and love are never as they seem…

There is much written in books just like this kept my bedside tables and there are those who still reread those stories and dream. Beautiful images.

They say that fiction has to make sense but life doesn't. So true and your words speak loudly of a love that ebbs and flows both in dreams and reality. Well done. Hugs, J'nia

It's one of the things I love best about reading...no matter what your problems are...no matter how you're feeling....you are transported to another place, another time...and suddenly...if even for awhile, everything is forgotten. Excellent write, Fee.

books take us to strange and mythical places sometimes don't they? I wrote when life as I knew it wasn't hardly worth living... so I made up a life that was! Hugs, Kathy

are there any real life Harlequin romances...sigh...we all can savor the possibility..."Ah, but spring clouds spray blue tints on white

sun unfolds the horizon like a new morning kiss

the page somehow transforms into a new chapter"....

and the presence of hope lingers within your poem

We still insist on dreaming, don't we? All those fairy tales when we were kids made us believe that they come true. Still, a man without myth is a dry man indeed. We are a continent of dreamers. Reminds me of that line in that movie about Tuscany(no, I don't remember the title, lol). The real-estate agent selling the villa the main character was buying told her that before trains were even in the country, they built track through the mountains. Before anything becomes reality, it must first be a dream. Sorry to ramble. This is a fine write, Fee. From the heart of a man who dreams...
