There is a comfort in the strength of love;
'Twill make a thing endurable, which else
Would overset the brain, or break the heart.
William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
Like Silken Chiffon
You are the melody within my heart
You hold and keep me from falling apart
You’re the loving song within my soul
Making me feel so complete and whole
You are the flowing ink within my quill
Your heart I’ll soothe and totally fulfil
You’re the paper I caress and write upon
With flowing words like silken chiffon
You are the greatest magic within my eyes
Understanding so well our spiritual ties
In these haunting mirrors of my soul
My solitude and pain only you console
You’re like golden threads of sunlight rays
In the window of my heart you dance and play
You beckon me with charm and grace
With your eyes of warmth upon my face
Very warm, romantic and elegant

Elga, this is a most energetic beautiful poetic treat for the masses to feast upon, my valued friend. You have once again delighted the senses with this well-crafted stunningly pleasurable presentation. Your polished poetry courses through the rivers of the soul with such ease as it caresses and soothes each shoreline with inspirational tranquility. It was a delight to read. Thank you for sharing your timeless treasures. Take good care and be well.
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
Questions, unquestioned discoveries, and answers in parable and rhyme…. This collection records a journey starting with a 1960s retrospective and the first man on the moon, moving to a new millennium welcomed in with a terrorist spin, family crises,
