it's the words that sing, they soar and descend...I bow to them...I love them, I cling to them, I run them down, I bite into them, I melt them down...I love words so much...The unexpected ones...The ones I wait for greedily or stalk until, suddenly, they drop...
Pablo Neruda*
Dedicated To Amor Sabor
On Tour With Pablo And You
By La Belle Rouge
Take me on a tour with Pablo and You;
for You and Neruda are my passion.
In your words I hear echoes of his
and in his I discern premonitions of yours.
Take my hand we'll run through the streets
searching for memories of what we crave,
like mouths and voices and scented hair.
Drunk as drunk with open mouth kisses
passing morning on the percipice in shadows of palms.
Pen me an ode to my naked beauty, your notebook
balanced on the roundness of my hips
as we lounge on tangled, sodden sheets
and wallow in reveries of implacable sweetness.
I could no more forget you than to breathe
or to savor the taste of truthful words.
You are mine, again, at last... forever,
man of the sweet lustful words.
I chew them slowly, deliberately, thoroughly
and feel them slide down though my heart and loins.
Leaning into the afternoon, we write songs
but not the saddest ones, no never those.
Those you read to me, in both languages
and kiss each empathetic tear away
as it drops from my eyes to your lips.
Silken legs wrapped around your waist
like elongated shackles that push you deeper
into the prison cell of our lust.
Take me on a tour, leaning into midnight
and this time we’ll leave Dear Pablo behind.
Love this very sensual write and
What a tribute to a great poet of romance
And love Oh I love the song Sabor A Mi
A very romantic song for a very romantic and
Sensual write it speaks loud and clear
love poetry at is best!!
Love Peace and Joy many hugssss to you always...Morning Star
There is no greater tribute that I have ever read that speaks to me as you have in this masterpiece. It leaves me breathless and speechless to be so honored by someone I can send my souls essence to with full love and deep appreciation. You have become the master of romance and I cannot be more inspired.
Love Always
Amor
Perfectly paced and developped, Belle. This is so rich and lush with both image and emotion and could quite conceivably describe Pablo and his dearest Lover themselves, as I'm sure is your desire. A real epic of a romance conjured here.. so much more sultry than Romeo and Juliet, this is more Solomon and Bathsheba, the hanging gardens of Babylon.. all the dripping opulence of the hot or eastern Med and the heady spice of Latin America. Love the tenderness and most intimate emotional connections expressed here. This is timeless and most passionate romance at its crucible best. Bless you, Kate xx
The Portuguese people have a unique passion which you can hear in their musical language and see on their face and in their gestures when they communicate. You, my friend, exude this same kind of passion in your poetry. This is what the best is made of!
Talking about Neruda makes my heart kind of go mushing.
He sure could had penned and ode to your naked body expecting to get his waist with those shackles that....should I say more?
A perfect love song.

When I read you, La Belle, I know where it is you are going to take me. I know it, but I can still be still amazed at the beautiful way you have of getting me there. And, after I arrive where you lead, I am exhausted by the sheer magic of the trip . . . THIS is one of those . . .
Superb! Neruda is smiling - i was just *trying* to read him in Spanish in the Library - this is a stunning beauty of a poem, well done La Belle - Mr Sabor has reminded me of him too, Nicky x
Edward Rutherford is prepared to do just about anything to escape an arranged marriage to a woman he despises. But his brilliant plan to feign insanity has some rather unwanted consequences...
