All of life has rhythms ...

Poem Artwork


Rhythms

There is no touch like your touch,
backed as it is by love.
Life's own rhythms are brought to mind:

the mounting arc of an ocean wave
in its eager steady rise
and the exquisite explosion in its plunge.

a volcano blows and lava flows,
the ashes softly flurry down
to blanket earth’s bed.

a swelling surge of lightning,
its jagged bolt thrust deeply in the ground,
the resounding thunder a herald of its rapture.

every sunset is nature’s afterglow,
and in your arms
like a brand new dawn,
a memory is born each time
your touch warms again.

My own heart fills with the true love, unbroken in your poem and in your heart. It is rare and always will be secure.

Enjoyed this CJ so much, love how you've captured the rhythm through nature...splendid! Great use of metaphors, you have also captured the very essence of love within your lines and the roller coaster of a ride that love sometimes takes us on. Love is often times as exciting and exilerating as the volcoano, the swelling surge of lightning, and then at others as tender and gentle as the sunset...oh you are a true romantic my friend...loved it down to the final line..a memory is born each time your touch warms again...simply divine!
Blessings,

CJ~ this is so moving..."Rhythms" can be felt in every line! The flow of emotions, how they rise and fall among the touch of man, like the waves,the volcanic blow, the lightening's surge...
and then the, fall into your arms, in a sunset afterglow...
Wow!
I keep! Smiles!
Love and Peace~

Agree with Jeanette, the touch of a woman is so synonymous with nature in the upheavel it can cause a man whose in love.

You've captured nature so beautifully in "Rhythms". But you've also captured the analogy to someone's touch (it can make one feel like the beauty of nature.)
